Using a 3D model early in the design-in process can make specifying an aluminium electronic enclosure much easier and more accurate.
A downloadable 3D CAD model allows engineers to position PCBs, connectors, displays, switches, power supplies and other components inside the enclosure before anything is manufactured. This makes it easier to check clearances, access and overall fit, while also identifying potential clashes at an early stage.
Working in 3D also helps when specifying modifications such as holes, cut-outs, ventilation, fixings and inserts. The enclosure model can be incorporated into the wider product assembly so that mechanical and electronic design decisions can be reviewed together.
This can reduce the risk of errors, unnecessary prototype iterations and late design changes. It also gives the enclosure manufacturer clearer information about the intended design, helping to speed up quotations and production.
METCASE provides downloadable 3D models for its enclosure ranges, giving designers a practical starting point for developing fully customised housings for their electronics.
