Few Benefits To Use Custom Enclosure Fabrication

Electronic devices are becoming more and more common with each passing day, with new technologies emerging every year that make your life easier. But as these devices are getting smaller, device makers have to get creative when designing them. Custom enclosure fabrication is a great way for device makers to protect their products from the elements and the abuse of everyday life. We at Toolless offer enclosure designs for some electronic devices. 

What is Custom Enclosure Fabrication?

Custom enclosure fabrication is a process that protects an electronic device from the elements, allowing access to all of its ports and components. In the case of common electronic devices with onboard power supplies, these can be used to supply power to the device. The enclosure needs only be a thin yet sturdy plastic shell that will not break down under normal usage. 

The benefits of custom enclosure fabrication include the following:

1. Accessibility

Custom enclosure fabrication allows users to access their device's ports and features. It prevents the need for additional equipment that might not be readily available or might need a specialized degree of skill to operate. It also prevents the user from having to set up their device in a way that is not conventional, which could potentially damage it. For example, creating an electrical outlet inside a custom-made enclosure eliminates the need for an extension cord or power strip with multiple sockets to power one device.

1. Outlet Protection

Protecting electrical components inside custom enclosure fabrication protects them from damage, including the risk of fire or electric shock. Many enclosures come with plugs that fit into your standard electrical outlet, but these can be removed if it is impossible to access power through an outlet near the device.

1. Light Weight and Ease of Transporting

Custom enclosure fabrication can make this much easier for you if you travel with your electronics. Instead of requiring more than one bag to transport your devices, they can be placed inside a single custom-made enclosure. That makes it easier to pack and transport as well, and it also means that you do not end up with multiple bags of various sizes.

1. Safety

Electronic devices contain important data that must be protected from damage or loss by an outside source. Custom enclosure fabrication allows this protection from several physical sources, such as water, dust, liquids, mold and the sun, without losing access to any ports or connections.

1. Utility

Custom enclosure fabrication can also be used for more than just the protection of an electronic device. Some devices with higher power ratings may not be able to use standard power cables but, instead, require soldering copper wires directly into the device. Custom enclosure fabrication offers a way to solder the connection with very little risk to the user, making it easier for them to do their job. The possibility of damage is also reduced by custom enclosure fabrication, which can result in a device that works better and longer than it would otherwise.

1. Style

Custom enclosure fabrication offers a much more stylish and unique device than what is possible with a standard power strip or electrical outlet. That can be attractive to the average consumer, who typically wants their electronics to fit into their home furnishings and perform the function it was purchased for.

1. Durability

One of the main concerns when choosing a product for Custom enclosure fabrication is durability. People are more likely to use the device if it does not require costly repairs and replacements in the future. An all-in-one design can get expensive, so people want to be sure that it will last for a long time.

Enclosure Design for Custom Enclosures- How does it work?

Our Enclosures are designed using concept sketches and 3D CAD drawings. Enclosures are 3D printed and joined together to create the final result. We then add a top plate, which provides structural support for the enclosure. It incorporates a special design for protecting sensitive electrical components inside your custom-enclosed device. Each enclosure has various custom parts, including customized rails to hold your device in place.

A Toolless team receives your concept drawing, and we will review it for compatibility with any special features you requested. We will also give you a final cost and time estimate for your project. That helps us provide the best Custom enclosure fabrication possible to meet your needs. Contact us today at tel:425-493-1223.
