Large operating and display surfaces

20 November 2002 Manufacturing / Production Technology, Hardware & Services

The Aluplan enclosures from Bopla satisfy a wide range of needs because their width and depth are variable and, depending on the size selected, they can be used as a wall, desktop or mobile enclosure.

With Aluplan 100, Bopla has developed a new size with an external height of 100 mm, and which is available in 16 standard lengths. In addition to the standard sizes, special dimensions adapted to individual electronic solutions can also be manufactured.

These enclosures are ideal for customers who require large operating and display surfaces in the front and upper section for their electronic components. The completely plug-in or screw-on front and rear walls are easy to process at low cost. On request, Bopla can print and subsequently anodise the panels.

The intelligent design of the side profiles ensures that PCBs can easily be inserted on different levels, so the compartment space can be used in the best possible way. Specially designed seals offer protection to IP65. Standard colour for the enclosures is light grey (similar to RAL 7035); other colours on request. In addition to the enclosures, Bopla also offers complete processing of the profiles. Bopla can manufacture matching membrane keypads on request.
