ROLEC aluCASE custom-ready die-cast aluminium enclosures

Click2Contact

ROLEC’s aluCASE die-cast aluminium enclosures have been designed to simplify customisation requirements. Until now, die-cast enclosures would require additional machining and reworking in order to mount electronic or electrical components and accessories. The aluCASE series includes these features as standard.

It is not necessary to machine the lid section to fit a membrane keypad or product label, as a 2 mm recess is already provided. Lid-retaining straps are included to avoid the need to fit external hinges. Should hinges be required, standard models pre-fitted with integrated hinges are available.

The enclosures can be mounted on a wall or machine while still assembled. There is no need to remove the lid, thus avoiding any possible damage to the components or sealing gasket. The clip-on trims are simply snapped into place after the unit is mounted. As a result, design engineers only have to specify the machining and finishing required for their electronic and electrical components.

The enclosures can be machined on any external surface so that cable glands, controls, displays, connectors, indicators, etc can be fitted. ROLEC can also machine the internal surfaces to provide extra mounting points or remove existing screw bosses to make room for assemblies, rails or PCBs.

The enclosures are rated to IP67 but can also be specified to IP69K with a special factory-fitted gasket. They are manufactured in die-cast aluminium in 27 sizes with external dimensions from 75 x 50 x 33 mm to 430 x 300 x 120 mm.

The enclosures are powder-painted in window grey, RAL 7040; however, they can also be painted in any RAL colour or matched user colour on request. Powder paint or specialist wet paints can be applied. The company can also silk-screen or engrave control legends and logos to user designs.
