Solutions for housings and electronics installation

Functional housing solutions

From the idea to series production

An idea is only as good as its implementation. In the case of electronic devices, it is not only the inner workings that have to meet high standards, but also the casing - i.e. the housing including the operating unit. The place of use determines the housing material, the design the user-friendliness of the device and the appearance the value of the product. It therefore makes sense to rely on the expertise of professionals when manufacturing housings.

Benefit from our many years of experience in the field of housing solutions. We support you right from the start and work with you to develop the optimum, needs-based enclosure solution for your product based on your technical and visual requirements. If you wish, we can also take care of the individual printing or labeling of the enclosures as well as the integration of membrane keypads, touch displays and electronic components. The earlier you contact us during the development phase, the better the electronics and housing can be coordinated. This saves time and money.

Concept enclosure solutions

In the concept phase, we work with you to define the requirements for your enclosure. These include functions, budget, cost-effectiveness, area of application and installation space. We discuss with you what we can do for you and which work steps you want to take over. Experience has shown that a holistic approach to design, manufacturing and assembly reduces overall production costs.

Product design housing solutions

An appealing design makes up the emotional value of a product. We pay attention to manufacturability and cost-effectiveness for volume production as early as the enclosure design phase. It makes sense to get involved with product design while the electronics are still being developed.

Engineering housing solutions

Our engineers develop your enclosure according to your requirements and create the technical drawings and 3D CAD models. You have already started with the design and development? No problem. We support you in every way. Because with 40 years of experience in enclosure engineering, we know how to efficiently develop enclosure solutions for series production.

Rapid prototyping

Whether illustrative models, prototypes for functional testing, pilot series or exclusive small series for field tests ‒ depending on the purpose, surface finish, accuracy, quantity and material, we select the appropriate 3D printing process and produce your 3D prototype. Fast, cost-effective, tailored to your needs.

Toolmaking

Tooling determines the shape and quality of enclosures. With over 40 years of expertise in enclosure manufacturing and global tooling sourcing within the Phoenix Mecano Group, we can always guarantee the required tooling quality at reasonable prices.

Series production

We can use the Phoenix Mecano Group's cost-effective production facilities for the production of enclosures. Variant production, finishing and assembly are then carried out in Switzerland. In this way, we are able to guarantee you high flexibility in order quantities and short delivery times. The "One Piece Flow" in our production reduces stock quantities to a minimum and allows us to manufacture individual product variants at short notice.

Procurement of electronics and components

As a supplier of fully assembled devices and assemblies, we are also happy to take care of the procurement of electronics and components to be assembled. This ensures a simple, smooth procurement process and relieves your resources.

Assembly and functional testing

Our services are not limited to the production and delivery of housings. We can do more for you: If you wish, we can also take care of the assembly of the complete device, including function tests and packaging. Whether integration of membrane keypad, display or touch screen, installation of PCBs or electronics - on our LEAN assembly workstations we assemble both small and large series efficiently and "just-in-time" in one-piece flow.

Packaging and logistics

We support you in the complete storage and logistics process. Starting with the concept, through the design, to the procurement of the packaging. We focus on your requirements - whether mass packaging or final packaging with instruction leaflet, power supply and cable. The shipping can be handled with your papers directly to your customers worldwide.
