Electronic enclosure manufacturing
Custom plastic housings for electronics projects. The enclosure is not just a box: openings, mounting points, mating parts and the appearance all affect the tool and the assembly.
Enclosure types
- Handheld — grips, battery doors, buttons and light pipes.
- Desktop — top/bottom covers, bezels and connector openings.
- Wall-mount — mounting bosses, keyhole slots and cable exits.
- DIN-rail / control — panel parts, terminal covers and clips.
Design details that matter
- Draft and wall thickness for molding
- Snap fits, screws and assembly tolerances
- Openings for connectors, displays and ventilation
- Gasket grooves and sealing surfaces
- EMI shielding, grounding points and gaskets are designed into the tool
- Cosmetic surfaces, texture and color
Materials and finishes
ABS, PC, PC/ABS and TPU are common for enclosures. The choice depends on impact, heat, flame requirements and appearance. See material notes →
Process
- Share the enclosure drawing, quantity and target date.
- Review DFM, assembly interfaces and cosmetic requirements.
- Tooling and T1 samples.
- Production and inspection.

FAQ
Can you work from a 3D file only?
Yes. A STEP or STL file is enough to start; 2D drawings help with critical dimensions and tolerances.
Can you match a specific color or texture?
Color matching and texture are built into the tool. Send a sample or a reference and we match it at T1.
