Precision Engineered Process Enclosures: What It Takes to Build Them Right.

Production Systems Inc. brings decades of expertise to designing and building durable, high‑performance process enclosures. Our team engineers each enclosure for reliability, protection, and seamless integration into demanding industrial environments. Fabrication & Shaping: Turning Raw Materials Into Structures Every process enclosure begins with the transformation of raw materials, typically sheet metal, machined aluminum, or engineered plastics—into the structural components that form the enclosure’s frame and panels. Sheet Metal Fabrication - For most industrial finishing enclosures, sheet metal is the foundation. Using laser cutters or punch presses, flat metal sheets are shaped with precision before being formed into three‑dimensional structures on press brakes. This method is ideal for large control boxes, electrical cabinets, and environmental enclosures. Machining - When tolerances are tight or the design is highly customized, CNC machining delivers unmatched accuracy. A solid block or plate of metal is milled into a finished enclosure with precise cutouts, mounting points, and internal features. Plastics & Composites - For applications requiring lightweight, non‑conductive, or corrosion‑resistant housings, plastic injection molding or composite fabrication may be used. These materials are common in electronics, [...]

Industrial Finishing Systems For Military & Transit Applications

For manufacturers in the defense and transit industies, every piece of equipment and every component must meet the most stringent requirements. These types of equipment and parts must be reliable, durable, and precise. To ensure requirements are met, advanced industrial finishing solutions are extremely important. The most often used finishing solutions for this industry segment include metal plating, shot blasting, and paint/coatings application. Metal Plating Processes Metal plating is a process where a thin layer of one metal is deposited onto the surface of another material, to enhance its properties like corrosion resistance and hardness. Metal plating creates a protective coating on the receiving metal. Metal plating technology includes: Electroplating - uses an electric current to deposit the metal ions onto the surface Anodizing - thickens the metal's natural oxide layer Electroless plating - A chemical reaction that creates a uniform coating without using electricity Chemical film - A chromate-based coating that protects against corrosion and improves electrical conductivity Few industries demand more metal plating than the Defense Industry. Production Systems provides specialized solutions for the metal plating process, such as conveying [...]
