Finding the perfect enclosure

Advertorial

The search for the right Enclosure can be challenging. It can be difficult to know where to find what you’re after, and even where to start. You could spend your time trawling through multiple manufacturer’s websites and searching through countless enclosures, before you find something even remotely suitable. But, what if you could have access to 5700+ enclosures, all on one website? Look no further, as Enclosure Solutions have the solution!…

Enclosure Solutions have developed a unique and intelligent website, which helps pave the way to finding the perfect enclosure for your product. With a comprehensive search engine, 5700+ Standard Enclosure choices, plus Modification and Bespoke Manufacturing options, and an in-house Turn-Key Production facility, this is the perfect tool for finding the right product for your application.

The Enclosure Solutions website is built around a highly intelligent parametric search engine, which was designed to simply do the work for you. The search works by requesting the key requirements for your ideal enclosure. You start your Enclosure search by determining whether you would like to search by Size or Enclosure Category. The search by size feature allows users to input the length, width and height, along with a tolerance for each if an exact size has not been determined. The search will return all enclosures which fall within the tolerance specified.

The Search by Enclosure Category feature allows you begin the search based off the type of Enclosure required for the application. The search by Category options are ATEX, Cabinets and Racks, Desktop and Instrument, Development Boards, Diecast and Metal, Din Rail, Electrical, EMI/RFI Shielded, General Purpose Plastic, Hand held, Heavy Duty and IoT Sensor & Communication Enclosures.

After the initial search attribute has been determined and the website has returned results based off this, the search can then be refined further. Additional searchable attributes on the site are Colour, IP Rating, Material, Shape, Mounting, Feature, and the Manufacturer. In most cases, the cost of the Enclosure plays a large factor in which one is selected, the ‘price: low to high’ tool is a useful way to refine your results even further.

For each enclosure, the website allows you to have access to the Enclosure’s attributed values, images, detailed descriptions, and downloadable PDFs, along with free samples! If any help is required when searching for your Enclosure, the Enclosure Solutions team are always on hand to provide further information and advice and we would love to hear from you.

It’s extremely important to ensure your product is visually appealing, to help attract customers and help make your product stand out from your competitors. Enclosure Modification is a fantastic way take your standard, off the shelf Enclosure and transform it into a professional, unique, and user-friendly product, with your own branding. The Enclosure Solutions website includes a bespoke Enclosure Modification form, which requests key information required to quote for a modified enclosure and will return a quotation straight to your inbox.  A full modification service is available for all our standard injection moulded, die-cast and sheet-metal enclosures. Machined apertures, custom colours, text, logo printing & engraving, as well as special surface coatings for RFI shielding are also available as part of the Enclosure Modification services.

In some instances, you may not be able to find a standard Enclosure which fits your requirements, or
perhaps you’re looking for a more tailored product. Our website offers Bespoke Enclosures, which allows you to design and build your enclosure completely from scratch. Any colour, any IP rating, any design, all aspects are completely customisable. Bespoke Enclosures are suitable for small to medium batch builds and with the help and expertise of our design team, we can take you from concept to a finished, professional product in good time.

For a complete one-stop solution, Enclosure Solutions is fortunate to have our own, in-house EMS manufacturing subsidiary, K2A Electronic Manufacturing Services. Armed with this, the Enclosure Solutions site offers clients a full ‘turnkey’ service, enabling you to receive a fully functional ‘plug-and-play’ production straight out of the box. We incorporate PCB Assembly, Cable Assembly and internal wiring, programming, test and final packaging as required. The full turnkey solution ensures you get your product to market quickly and efficiently, saving your business both time and money.

If it couldn’t get any better, we also offer free of charge enclosures! How? Our business is keen to grow both our Enclosure and Turnkey Manufacturing businesses, so, as an incentive for our OEM clients who wish us to quote for new Turnkey Box-build business, we will offer the enclosure free-of-charge if it is commercially viable.
