Frequently Asked Questions About Custom Sheet Metal Enclosures

If you're planning to work with us on a custom sheet metal enclosure project, here are answers to the questions we receive most often from global customers.

1. What file formats do you accept for quoting?

We can work with 2D drawings in PDF or DWG format, and 3D models in STEP/STP, IGS, or SolidWorks files. If you have only sketches or samples, we can help convert them to manufacturable drawings.

2. What materials do you offer?

We commonly use aluminum (5052/6061), stainless steel (201/304/316), SPCC, galvanized steel, and SECC. We’ll suggest the best option based on strength, appearance, and cost.

3. What surface finishes are available?

Available finishes include powder coating (standard or textured), anodizing, sandblasting, brushing, silk screen, and laser engraving. Custom colors can be matched using RAL or Pantone codes.

4. What is your typical lead time?

For prototypes: 3–7 working days. For mass production: 10–20 working days, depending on complexity and quantity. We always confirm deadlines before production.

5. Can you handle small batch or just one sample?

Yes. We support small quantities, including one-off prototyping, to help you test fit or validate your product before scaling to mass production.

6. How do you ensure quality?

Every part goes through incoming material inspection, in-process QC, and final inspection before packing. Dimensional reports, surface checks, and customer specifications are all reviewed before delivery.

7. Can I include logo or text on the enclosure?

Absolutely. We support laser engraving, silk screen printing, and custom cutouts for logos or labels. Just provide the file or position requirement.

8. Do you offer design feedback or improvements?

Yes. Our engineering team provides free DFM (design for manufacturing) suggestions, including edge clearance, hole distances, bend reliefs, and assembly optimizations.

9. Do you ship internationally?

Yes, we ship globally via DHL, FedEx, UPS, or sea freight. We can work with your freight forwarder or offer CIF/DDP options if needed.
