Housing manufacturers can offer milling, drilling, punching, engraving, screen printing, varnishing and EMC coating for their standard products. Standard enclosures for the electronics and electrical industry are manufactured by many specialised manufacturers in a wide range of sizes, designs and types. Manufacturers shape housings and offer them in molded custom colors to meet all applicable identification requirements and corporate branding requirements.
Plastic housings are used to enclose and hold electronics of all kinds, keep them together, keep them away from dust and dirt and protect them from impact damage. Examples of everyday items in plastic cases include calculators, coolers, desktop computers, laptops, remote controls, TVs, video game controllers and wireless Internet controllers.
Another advantage of plastic housings over metal housings is their lightness, which is suitable for the use of portable electronics. Plastic housings can be manufactured from a variety of different plastic materials, depending on the application. The high flexibility that can be achieved with plastic housings is in stark contrast to metal housings that are not as adaptable.
Many plastic enclosures have slots or shapes on either side of the enclosure for the direct vertical installation of the PCB bracket or end shapes on top of the base for horizontal mounting. Extruded aluminum housings are full length and have slots on both sides for horizontal PCB mounting. Plastic housings are insulated, and metal is a good conductor, so a plastic box, like a metal box, does not need to be grounded.
Housings can be mounted flush-mounted or with bolt inserts, and the housing doors can be painted to match the interior. A hinged box with drilled holes for wire access is an example of a plastic housing that can be hung on the side of the building to provide access to telecommunications equipment and technicians.
In addition, the enclosure must pass strict tests in connection with transport and safety certification. The standard housing may need to be modified to make it fit for purpose. Another important aspect of the case is that it must be able to carry the battery itself.
If you need to use such enclosures, you need to know their species so that you can make the best and right decision. The first thing to do when choosing the right plastic case is to know how to install it. Below we have listed the different types of plastic enclosures so you can be sure to choose the one that best suits your needs.
