There are so many things to learn. Today we are going to learn how to make sheet metal enclosures. First of all, you need to choose the metal type to use. You can decide to use copper, aluminum, carbon or stainless steel. The thickness of this metals is also not the same. Let us see the metal type differences.

Aluminum is light in weight and resistant to corrosion. Copper on the other hand is soft and flexible. It has a high electrical and thermal conductivity. Stainless steel on the other hand is very stiff and strong. It is also resistant to corrosion. Galvanneal has a zinc coating which makes it to last longer. Cold rolled steels are stiff, durable and pocket friendly. However, each good has its own disadvantage, go through all the metals types and their specifications before you choose.

Do not forget to check the thickness of the property. It is not easy for people who are not experienced to know the thickness difference. You should ask the manufacturers to help you out. There is also a software that help you get a good with a thickness close to what you were looking for.

Do you have a specific cutout for your design? Worry less. This is because different manufacturing companies allow their clients to have customized cutouts to fit their specific needs. It is not a must you have your own. You can also pick from their list any cutout that you like. Most of them do no charge extra fee for the designs. Feel free to choose what you like most.

In addition, choose a press brake to bend your metals enclosures. A folder can also be used for the same purpose. However, bending does not give a complete L shape. There is a small curving that makes it to have a radius. There is two factors to think through when deciding on the radii. First consider the aesthetics and the function of the metals enclosure.

We also have self-clinching fasteners that should be thought of. This includes studs, nuts, stand offs and other tools that are used for fastening the goods. Studs are mainly used for rising connectors, nuts are used with screws and stand offs inserted in circuit boards.

Welding is also necessary. This is because different parts need to be brought together to get bigger ones. You also may want to prevent water or fluid leakages. There are three types of welding available. This includes the spot, tack and seamless welding. This will depend on the finishing that you want.

Last but not least, when designing sheet metals enclosures, you can have a good finishing. It many cases it is powder coated. Powder coating adds an extra layer to your sheet. You should choose the color and texture of your choice before you submit the rest of the details.
