Sheet metal for electrical engineering

Control cabinets, mounting plates and enclosures call for dimensionally stable sheet metal: doors that close, cut-outs that fit and edges that are safe. We cut, bend and weld those parts in steel, stainless steel and aluminium.

About this industry

Materials
  • Steel
  • Stainless steel 304
  • Stainless steel 316
  • Aluminium
Applications
  • Control cabinets
  • Mounting plates
  • Front panels
  • Industrial enclosures

For electrical engineering we make cabinet parts, mounting plates, front panels and enclosures. Cut-outs for glands, displays and ventilation are cut on the laser, so nothing needs reworking afterwards.

Dimensional accuracy matters more here than speed: a cabinet half a millimetre out of true will not close. Our press brake is servo-electric with tolerances to ISO 2768, and after bending we deburr the edges by machine.

From drawing to delivery

  1. Laser cutting

    Cut-outs for glands, displays and ventilation.

  2. Bending

    Dimensionally stable cabinet parts, ISO 2768.

  3. Welding & assembly

    TIG, MIG or laser welding through to the complete enclosure.

  4. Finishing

    Deburring, blasting or passivation.

Frequently asked questions

Can you cut cut-outs for cable glands and displays at the same time?

Yes. Cut-outs for cable glands, displays, cooling and ventilation are cut on the laser in the same operation, so nothing needs reworking afterwards. Show them on the drawing or in the STEP file.

How are mounting points added to a cabinet?

With self-clinching and rivet nuts that we insert in house, so without separate operations afterwards. If the cabinet is powder coated, the threads have to be masked or reworked; we take that into account in the planning.

How do you make sure a cabinet door closes properly?

By bending accurately: our servo-electric press brake bends to ISO 2768 tolerances, and long panels up to 3100 mm are bent in one go. After bending we deburr the edges by machine.
