Custom Industrial Robot Housings: Material and Thickness Decisions

At DitaiPlastic, the selection of material and thickness is crucial for manufacturing industrial robot housings. Engineers can choose from engineering thermoplastics such as ABS, PC, and PETG with varying thicknesses, maintaining a precise tolerance of ±0.5 mm. The decision balances durability, impact resistance, and aesthetic requirements.

Material and Thickness Options for Robot Housings

Material	Thickness	Properties
ABS	Various thicknesses	High impact resistance, good surface finish
PC	Various thicknesses	Excellent clarity, high strength
PETG	Various thicknesses	Flexible, strong, easy to mold

Vacuum Forming Process for Industrial Robot Housings

The vacuum forming process at DitaiPlastic starts with in-house sheet extrusion, ensuring consistent material quality. Sheets are then formed using one of 16 thermoforming machines, capable of producing parts up to 5000 × 2500 × 1000 mm. The pressure forming technique enhances detail and strength, making it ideal for complex robotic enclosures.

Trimming and Finishing Precision

Post-forming, each housing undergoes CNC trimming with our 28 CNC machines and 16 five-axis units, ensuring precise edge definition and accurate fitting. Our finishing options include painting and assembly in 4 dedicated booths, delivering custom aesthetic solutions.

Inspection and Quality Assurance

Quality is assured through comprehensive inspections. Each part is measured for dimensional accuracy using advanced tools to meet the ±0.5 mm tolerance. Surface finish and structural integrity are also checked to comply with ISO 9001 and IATF 16949 standards.

RFQ Details for Industrial Robot Housings

For an accurate RFQ, provide detailed design specifications, including dimensions, preferred materials, and any specific features. Indicate the intended production volume and any critical deadlines to aid in precise quoting and scheduling.

Export Packing Considerations

Our export packing ensures each robot housing is safely packed to mitigate transit damage. We consider factors such as weight distribution and packing material to ensure secure delivery worldwide.
