Inside
Boards and connectors
Provide PCB outline, keep-out zones, mounting locations and connector envelopes. Include assembly clearance, fastener access and any future service requirement.
Industries / Supporting focus
Industrial electronics.
VelnoCast supplies custom aluminum enclosures and mounting components for industrial electronics, with board supports, connector openings, lid interfaces and finish requirements coordinated for your assembly.
Enclosures for industrial electronics
AI-generated illustrations of components and processes.
Engineering perspective
Plan the enclosure as an interface.
Across the wall
Heat and electrical contact
Identify thermal contact areas, interface materials and grounding points. Aluminum alone does not establish thermal performance or electromagnetic compatibility.
At the joint
Lids, seals and entries
Coordinate gasket compression, fastener spacing and connector sealing. A target ingress rating requires validation of the complete enclosure assembly.
Engineering perspective
Separate the component from the system claim.
A conductive housing may support an EMC design, but the overall result depends on joints, apertures, cable entries and electrical continuity. Define the areas that require bare metal contact and confirm how the coating and assembly method interact.
Likewise, a fin or a thickened wall does not establish cooling capacity. Provide power dissipation, ambient conditions, mounting orientation and the permitted operating temperature so the appropriate analysis or test can be planned.
Practical answers
Questions before you specify
Can the enclosure be supplied with a guaranteed IP rating?
An ingress rating must be tied to a defined assembly and test. State the target rating, connector arrangement, gasket design and who is responsible for validating the final assembly.
Will powder coating affect grounding?
A coating can interrupt electrical contact. Mark the intended grounding or bonding locations and specify masking or another approved contact arrangement.
What should accompany the mechanical model?
Include the board and connector envelope, heat sources, cable access, mounting method and environmental requirements. Identify interfaces that are still provisional.

WHAT TO MEASURE ON THIS PART
Enclosure inspection: start at the sealing joint.
Use these features to build the inspection scope for your drawing. The illustrated geometry is an example, not a stocked or validated product.
Inspection methods & reporting →
| Feature | Requirement to define | Check / evidence |
|---|---|---|
| Lid / gasket joint | Flatness, surface condition and gasket support geometry. | Dimensional and surface checks to the drawing; inspect damage at the sealing path. |
| Connector openings | Opening position, threads and distance to sealing boundaries. | Datum-based position measurement and specified thread gauges. |
| Enclosure wall | Defined internal-quality zones, especially near ports and machined faces. | Specified porosity evaluation; leak testing is a separate requirement. |
| Finished assembly | Gasket, fasteners, cable entries and assembly condition. | Test the specified assembly configuration; do not infer an IP rating from the casting. |
