2. Smart Buildings & Infrastructure: Embedded within walls, ceiling voids, or equipment shafts to house control modules for HVAC regulation, intelligent lighting, access control systems, or building management networks (BMS). Their low-profile design avoids cluttering public or operational spaces.
3. Transportation Systems: Installed in vehicles (buses, trains, industrial forklifts) or infrastructure (traffic signal poles, toll booths) to enclose navigation controllers, engine monitoring units, or traffic signal logic boards. They withstand vibration and temperature fluctuations common in mobile or outdoor transit environments.
4. Medical Devices: Seamlessly built into diagnostic equipment, patient monitors, or surgical tools to protect circuit boards, power regulators, and connectivity components. Critical for maintaining sterility and reliability in clinical settings, where hygiene and precision are paramount.
5. Consumer & Commercial Appliances: Integrated into smart home hubs, fitness equipment, or commercial appliances (e.g., vending machines, POS systems) to house control boards. Their compact design preserves aesthetics while shielding electronics from dust and casual tampering.
6. Telecommunications & Networking: Mounted within network racks, outdoor junction boxes, or telecom towers to protect signal boosters, fiber optic transceivers, or 5G small cell controllers. They balance protection (against dust, moisture) with the need for unobtrusive integration into urban or industrial landscapes.
Space Adaptation: Customize the length, width, and height of the box according to the dimensional constraints of the installation location (e.g., internal equipment cavities, pre-reserved wall slots, robotic arm joints) to ensure seamless embedding into the target system without occupying extra space.
Internal Layout: Design layered partitions, fixing brackets, or guide rails based on the quantity and size of internal components (such as PCB boards, sensors, terminal blocks) to achieve orderly arrangement of components, while reserving space for wiring and heat dissipation.
Mounting Methods: Customize installation structures according to integration needs, such as welded types (fixed to equipment frames), snap-on types (for quick disassembly), or screw hole positions (adapting to different mounting surfaces).
2. Material and Protection Performance Customization
Material Selection:
Cold-rolled steel (cost-effective and easy to process) is suitable for general indoor scenarios;
304 stainless steel is preferred for humid or mildly corrosive environments (e.g., kitchen equipment, bathroom control systems);
316 stainless steel or anti-corrosion coatings (e.g., Teflon coating) are required for highly corrosive environments (e.g., chemical equipment);
Aluminum alloy or engineering plastics (e.g., ABS, PC) can be used for lightweight requirements (e.g., drones, mobile devices).
Protection Rating (IP): Customize ratings such as IP54 (dust and splash protection), IP65 (high-pressure water jet protection), or IP67 (short-term water immersion protection) based on factors like dust, moisture, and oil in the environment. Some scenarios may also require impact resistance (IK rating) design.
3. Heat Dissipation and Ventilation Design
Customize heat dissipation solutions according to the heat generation of internal components (e.g., chips, power modules):
Heat dissipation holes or fins can be designed for low-power scenarios;
Small fans, thermal pads, or hollow structures combined with natural convection are needed for medium to high-power scenarios;
Water-cooling interfaces or thermal insulation layers (e.g., asbestos, ceramic coatings) may be required for high-temperature environments (e.g., near industrial furnaces).
4. Interface and Wiring Customization
Interface Reservation: Customize cable inlets (e.g., round/square openings with waterproof connectors) and exposed holes for communication interfaces such as USB/RS485 on the side or bottom of the box according to the connection needs of external devices, to avoid messy wiring.
Internal Wiring Management: Integrate built-in wire troughs, cable tie fixing points, or terminal blocks to facilitate cable organization and later maintenance, especially suitable for scenarios with multi-line integration (e.g., smart building control systems).
5. Safety and Protection Functions
Anti-Interference Design: In electromagnetic-sensitive scenarios such as medical and communications fields, electromagnetic shielding layers (e.g., metal plating, shielding nets) need to be customized to reduce the impact of external electromagnetic radiation on internal components.
Anti-Theft and Misoperation Prevention: Add locks (e.g., key locks, combination locks) or anti-tamper alarm devices, which are applicable to outdoor equipment (e.g., traffic signal control boxes) or confidential scenarios.
Fire Resistance: Use flame-retardant materials (e.g., flame-retardant ABS) to meet safety standards in industrial, medical, and other fields.
6. Appearance and Identification Customization
Color: Customize spray colors according to the visual needs of the application scenario (e.g., white for medical equipment, gray for industrial equipment). Some scenarios need to comply with specific standards (e.g., white matte for food-grade equipment).
Marking: Silk-screen or laser engrave product models, warning slogans, and interface instructions to facilitate identification by installers and maintenance personnel.
