Frequently asked questions
Why an extruded aluminium enclosure instead of a sheet-metal or plastic box?
An extruded aluminium enclosure gives a seamless one-piece body with integral board guides, good rigidity and natural heat dissipation and EMI shielding — useful for electronics that run warm. A sheet-metal or plastic box can be cheaper for very simple, low-heat, low-shielding cases; send your requirement and we help you weigh it up.
Can you machine the cut-outs, connector ports and end plates?
Yes — end machining, cut-outs, ports and mounting holes are handled as our CNC & machining service, and anodizing as our finishing service, so the enclosure ships ready to fit. Send the drawing marking the openings.
Can you extrude a compact, thin-wall enclosure section?
Yes — this is where our small-section extrusion capability helps, down to a 2 mm circumscribing circle and 0.3 mm wall on suitable sections. Send the section and we confirm what is extrudable.
Can you make it sealed / weatherproof?
Sealing depends on your gasket, end-cap and joint design rather than the extrusion alone. Tell us the ingress requirement and we confirm the profile features (gasket grooves, end-cap fit) needed to support it.
