Our Custom Transformer Enclosure Fabrication Services

End-to-end fabrication capabilities for custom transformer enclosures, from initial design and prototyping through high-volume production.

Plastic Fabrication

Custom fabrication of transformer enclosure housings using CNC trimming, heat bending, bonding, and edge finishing. Parts are produced to exact drawing specifications with precision drilling, fastener installation, and assembly-ready finishing included.

Thermoforming & Vacuum Forming

Heavy-gauge vacuum thermoforming of enclosure shells and covers using materials such as ABS, HDPE, and KYDEX. Low-cost tooling and short lead times make this ideal for custom enclosure projects of any production volume.

CNC Trimming & Cutting

Automated CNC router trimming and cutting services deliver clean, repeatable enclosure components. Contour cutting, precision drilling, and edge finishing ensure assembly-ready transformer enclosure parts every time.

Mold Making & Tooling

Custom molds and tooling for transformer enclosure production using aluminum, polyurethane, and wood patterns. Low-cost prototype tooling transitions seamlessly to aluminum production molds after design approval.

Prototyping

Rapid prototypes for transformer enclosure designs produced from low-cost wood or polyurethane tooling. Master patterns are CNC-milled to print specifications, allowing design review and functional evaluation before committing to production tooling.

High Volume Production

Scalable production runs from short-run to thousands of units using rotary thermoforming technology that is 2.5x faster than standard machines. All production parts are quality-controlled for appearance and dimensional accuracy.
