CAD is an essential tool in a fabrication shop, especially when we are designing a new sheet metal enclosure from scratch.

Seeing the whole assembly

In the model, each separate part of the enclosure is shown in its own colour, so it is easy to see how the pieces fit together. Exploded views can be added for greater detail, as in the image above.

Working with electrical designers

We work hand in hand with companies that design electrical apparatus. Designing the enclosure in CAD lets us supply unique designs and solutions in sheet metal to suit their requirements.

From model to parts

Each part in the model becomes a flat blank that can be laser cut and folded in our workshop.
