CUSTOM ELECTRONIC ENCLOSURES

Custom electronic enclosures are housings for components of electrical or electronic equipment (e.g., displays, panelboards, and switches). The main purposes of these structures are to protect the equipment from environmental compounds and conditions that can cause damage and users from injury caused by the equipment (e.g., electrical shock or explosion). While they can be found in a wide range of industrial, commercial, and residential facilities, they must be designed and built to suit the application and environment.

CUSTOMER SPECIFIED ENCLOSURES

Since 1959, A&J Manufacturing Company has specialized in the design and manufacture of customer specified custom electronic enclosures. Our custom electronic enclosures range in size and configuration from small computer card cage to a large multiple-bay console and are designed and tailored to meet our customer’s specific needs.

All A&J Manufacturing Company enclosures are manufactured from 6061-T6 aluminum using our unique family of proprietary extrusions. We use bolted-together modular construction and meet the requirements of MIL-S-901 Shock and MIL-STD-167-1 Vibration.

The simplicity of our design requires no welding, no special tooling, and no jig fixtures. No special hand tools are required for equipment or rack installation. This results in a lower customer cost per enclosure.
