How we Work
Check out how the process works here at CDT, as a tried and tested custom enclosure manufacturer with a strong customer focus we think it’s effective.
- Idea. Once you have an idea of your product or have designed your electronics and start thinking about a custom plastic enclosure.
- Contact. Get in touch. We’ll arrange to visit so we can gather as much information about what you would like to achieve.
- Specify your Design. The more information provided at this stage, the more accurate the quote and design.
- Quote. We normally allow 48 hours to generate a quote and design, depending on the complexity of the product or our workload.
- Enclosure Prototyping. When we get the go-ahead, our design and engineering experts work collaboratively with you.
- Production. We start production by CNC programming which enables us to transform a flat piece of plastic into your enclosure.
- Quality Checks & Delivery. Lastly, we quality check all cases and enclosures to ensure they meet your requirements and our quality standards. We use tracked delivery to ensure they arrive safely and on schedule.
