METCASE offers a custom metal enclosures service

Using standard extrusion profiles and die castings, and manufacturing special fabricated sheet metal parts, METCASE is able to offer custom enclosures at competitive prices, and in small batch sizes.

The typical minimum order quantity is just ten enclosures. This can be very useful for high value, low volume electronics equipment, or evaluation batches during new product development.

Working with METCASE, the design engineer can specify all the mounting parameters for their electronic components, assemblies and PCBs. METCASE will then manufacture the enclosures to the specified external dimensions and CNC punch or drill all the external panels with holes and cut outs to suit connectors, PCBs, switches, displays and so on.

The company can also supply special internal chassis and mounting plates for the PCB assemblies, power supplies and keyboard units. These special parts can be manufactured in steel or aluminium.

METCASE offers a range of standard finishes including powder polyester and wet paints, natural or coloured anodising, and special conductive coatings such as Interlox 338. The enclosures can be painted in standard RAL colours or non-standard colours matched to a sample.

Front panels can be machined with all the necessary cut outs for the displays and controls. They can also be anodised or painted, and silk screen printed or engraved with the control legends and company logos.
