Are you still paying skilled panel builders to measure, drill, and tap steel plates instead of assembling and wiring advanced systems? In modern control panel manufacturing, manual metal fabrication remains a costly operational bottleneck that restricts shop-floor throughput.
Rethinking Enclosure Preparation
Traditional electrical control panels demand hours of manual measuring, centre-punching, and drilling. Custom panel frames provide a cleaner alternative. By adopting a pre-assembled aluminum frame system, OEMs and panel builders can substantially reduce traditional backplate drilling and tapping during the control cabinet assembly phase.
Depending on application and workflow, mechanical installation time can be reduced by up to 80%. This shift allows skilled technicians to focus on high-value tasks rather than basic sheet metal fabrication.
Optimized Layouts and Better Access
Pre-assembled custom panel frames fundamentally improve access to component connection points across the enclosure. Unlike flat plates that confine components to a single rigid plane, an aluminum frame system supports organised wire routing and compact layouts subject to project design.
- Reduced Preparation: Minimize manual layout marking and hole tapping across your cabinets.
- Direct Access: Improve access to terminal points to assist standard wiring routines.
- Compact Architectures: Enable efficient, organised wire routing paths tailored to specific project needs.
