Most engineers fail to seriously consider how their electronics will be housed until after the board design is relatively advanced. As a result, according to Andrew Fitzer, managing director at Hitaltech, being invited into the design process at such a late stage can prove challenging.

Not that long ago, any customisation offered by enclosure manufacturers tended to be limited to drilling a few holes for connectors or machining apertures for displays. If you were looking for any additional customisation – whether that was painting, anodising, silk screen printing of legends and logos or EMC shielding – then you had to contend with a long chain of suppliers in which even minor problems could cause long delays or result in enclosures having to be redesigned.

Plastic enclosures have many benefits: many suppliers serve the market with a great number of standard products available in different styles and sizes at affordable prices, reducing time to market for new projects. The units are lightweight and allow complex shapes and features to be easily incorporated into the design. They can also be easily modified to accept displays, switches, connectors and other hardware.
