Meeting the Challenge of Metal Fabrication

Fabrication of a Steel Electrical Control Enclosure for an Industrial Equipment Manufacturer

In the project highlighted here, ADM Custom Metal Fabrication was contracted to fabricate a custom electrical enclosure for an industrial equipment manufacturer. Utilizing 12 gauge cold rolled steel, a number of precision processes were performed to create the structure including punching, forming, welding and stud welding. This enclosure had openings in the front and rear, with the challenge to weld the cabinet consistently square so the front hinged doors would open properly and the removable horizontal rear panels would be equally spaced within their openings. This was accomplished as requested, meeting the tightest tolerance ± 0.015”. Overall dimensions of the completed enclosure were 72” in length, 24” in width, and a height of 78”. The unit was given a protective powder coating finish in gray, and comprehensively tested and inspected.

Equipment employed during fabrication included the a Trumpf punch, Steel Master wet style 37” belt sander, our 130 ton Trumpf press brake, MIG welder, and hand held grinder and sander. All construction took place at our state-of-the-art full service shop, upholding customer specifications as outlined in the furnished 2D CAD drawings. 7 enclosures were produced and delivered for this project, within a turnaround time of 5 weeks.
