Computer controlled machining centers produce precision routed panels of high impact plastic laminated to furniture grade plywood. These panels are joined to our double walled, 6061-T5 aluminum extrusion set by pneumatic crimping. Our latches, handles, corners and braces are all steel and fixed via all steel blind rivets. Endless options in locks, casters, skids, security loops, etc... are always available and easily configured into afabricated case. Due to their flexibility in design and manufacture, fabricated cases are fully customizable and are not limited to size or configuration.
Fabricated ATA Style Road Cases are made to order and will typically ship in 3-6 weeks.

Injection molding is the most commonly used manufacturing process for the fabrication of plastic parts. The injection molding process requires the use of an injection molding machine, raw plastic material, and a mold. The process begins with taking the polymers in the form of pellets or granules and heating them to the molten state. The melt is then injected/forced into a chamber formed by a split-die mold. The melt remains in the mold and is chilled down to solidify. The mold is then opened and the part is ejected.
Stock Cases: Injection Molded Cases are off-the-shelf cases, and can typically ship 'as-is' in 1-3 business days.

A heated hollow mold is filled with powdered resin and slowly rotated (usually around two perpendicular axes) causing the softened material to disperse and stick to the walls of the mold. In order to maintain even thickness throughout the part, the mold continues to rotate at all times during the heating phase and to avoid sagging or deformation also during the cooling phase.
Customizable Cases: Rotationally Molded Cases are built to order, allowing for custom add-ons, and typically ship in 2 - 6 weeks.

Plastic sheets are placed in an oven for heating so that they become pliable. The heated sheet is then placed over a form (shaped like your end part) and a vacuum is then applied to remove trapped air and to pull the material into or onto the mold along with pressurized air. This then forms the plastic to the detailed shape of the mold. After a short form cycle, a burst of reverse air pressure is actuated from the vacuum side of the mold as the form tooling opens, commonly referred to as air-eject, to break the vacuum and assist the formed parts off of, or out of, the mold.
Thermoformed Cases are available in stock (1 - 3 day ship) or customizable (2 - 6 week ship) options.
