Product Enclosures
At Orbis Electrica, we design and manufacture custom electronic enclosures to protect your systems from environmental hazards, mechanical stress, and thermal challenges. Whether for indoor, outdoor, industrial, or high-precision applications, our enclosures are engineered to safeguard your electronics while facilitating installation, maintenance, and heat management.
By combining mechanical engineering, thermal analysis, and manufacturability expertise, we ensure each enclosure provides not just protection, but also optimal system performance and longevity.
What Is a Product Enclosure?
A product enclosure is the protective housing for an electronic or electrical system. It shields sensitive components from dust, moisture, vibration, impact, and electrostatic discharge, while allowing for cabling, heat dissipation, user access, and mounting flexibility. Enclosures can be made from metal, plastic, or composite materials, and include features like IP-rated sealing, EMI/RFI shielding, thermal management, and custom cable entry points. Enclosures can be standard off-the-shelf designs or fully customized to meet unique dimensional, mechanical, and environmental requirements, ensuring precise fit and performance.
Key Benefits
Protection Against Environmental Hazards
Our enclosures are designed to meet IP ratings and withstand exposure to dust, water, temperature extremes, vibration, and mechanical shock — ideal for industrial, outdoor, and harsh operating environments.
Thermal Management
Advanced thermal design options, including passive ventilation, conduction paths, or heat sinks, maintain safe operating temperatures and enhance component lifespan.
Custom Fit & Integration
Tailored enclosures accommodate PCBs, wire harnesses, connectors, displays, and other components for seamless system integration.
Mechanical Strength & Durability
Rugged materials and precision design provide resistance to impact, vibration, and long-term wear, ensuring reliable protection over the product lifecycle.
Ease of Installation & Maintenance
Removable panels, access points, modular design, and mounting features simplify assembly, servicing, and future upgrades.
Aesthetic & Branding Options
Custom finishes, colors, and branding elements allow enclosures to align with corporate identity and product design goals.
EMI/RFI Protection
Integrated shielding options reduce electromagnetic interference, protecting sensitive electronics and ensuring compliance with regulatory standards.
Scalable for Production Volumes
Enclosures can be prototyped quickly and scaled to low or high-volume manufacturing without compromising quality or performance.
