Aluminum Cases

All our aluminum cases are built custom for you, our customer. The advantage of custom aluminum cases is that we can build them to exactly fit your requirements. Since there are no standard sizes, we don't have to fit your components into a fixed sized case.

If you need a front opening case with a back opening panel, we can do that. A number of interior dividers, sure, no problem. Top opening lid with fold down front, we've done it! Your imagination is the only limitation!

We've built small briefcase sized cases all the way up to 3 feet x 3 feet x 15 feet long and everything in between.

We can engineer the interiors to provide the ultimate in shock absorption, even for such sensitive instruments as aircraft gyroscopes. We use Dow ethafoam 220 Black foam with blocking as required to secure your equipment.

Standard exterior finish is stucco aluminum. If you would like a bit of color, we can use colored ABS sheeting on the exterior. We can also silk screen your name or logo on the ABS if you would like.

We normally use a heavy duty, coated, twist lock latch that is recessed in a coated steel dish. Again, depending on the requirements, we can install an extra heavy duty latch as well. Both of these can be locking.

Our handles are spring loaded, rubber coated and mounted in a recessed dish. Mounting the case hardware in these recessed dishes minimizes travel damage done by common carriers. (Of course, if they treated everything gently, we would be out of business!)

The edges of the cases are joined with a special “double edge” aluminum extrusion, that is riveted in place. The lid to base joint is also a special aluminum extrusion and can be fitted with an O-ring for a weatherproof seal.

Smaller cases can have pull out extension handles with corner wheels for easier airport travel.

Other available options: castors, custom recessed dishes for electrical connectors, access panels, forklift bases, casters, you name it.

Welded Sheet Aluminum/Steel Enclosures/Cases

Again, as above, we can fabricate these cases to meet your requirements. We can build them as shipping cases or instrument enclosures. If you need internal mounting brackets, faceplates or windows, steel, stainless steel or aluminum construction we can do it. Powder coating if or as required. We can also build them to be water resistant.
