Our Custom Battery Enclosure Services

From design through production, we offer a full range of plastic manufacturing services tailored to custom battery enclosure requirements.

Thermoforming & Vacuum Forming

We heat and form plastic sheets over precision molds to create durable, dimensionally accurate battery enclosure housings. Using eight thermoforming machines up to 5'x9', we support both short-run and high-volume enclosure production with quick lead times.

Plastic Fabrication

Our fabrication department delivers fully finished battery enclosures using CNC routing, precision drilling, heat bending, bonding, and edge finishing — producing assembly-ready parts that meet exact drawing specifications in any quantity.

CNC Trimming & Cutting

Two 5'x10' CNC trimming centers perform primary and secondary trim operations on enclosure parts, ensuring clean edges, precise cutouts, fastener preparation, and repeatable production quality for every battery housing we produce.

Mold Making & Tooling

We design and manufacture low-cost wood and polyurethane prototype tooling as well as aluminum production molds — giving battery enclosure customers a fast, affordable path from concept approval to full production.

Prototyping

Using low-cost tooling and SolidWorks-guided CNC machining, we produce accurate battery enclosure prototypes in weeks, allowing customers to validate fit, form, and function before committing to production tooling.

Design Assistance & Material Selection

Our sales and engineering team evaluates your battery enclosure requirements — considering impact resistance, chemical exposure, UV stability, and thermal properties — to recommend the ideal material and tooling design for your application.
