Case Study

CNC Plastic Machining Prototype Developed

We were delighted to design this custom plastic machined prototype for a long-standing client in Rochdale.

Working closely with the client, our expert team designed this robust, wall-mounted time attendance prototype, before going on to manufacture a medium production run of the units.

Cost-Effective CNC Plastic Machining Prototype

The striking custom blue plastic used matched their client’s brand requirements. CNC machining extracted touchscreen and fingerprint scanner recesses, engraved the slots and created the cooling vents to aid heat dissipation.

The plastic machined prototype was designed for medium to heavy indoor industrial and commercial use. The robust streamlined design is stylish and rugged, able to withstand heavy daily usage.

Bespoke Raspberry Pi Weatherproof Enclosure

We designed, manufactured and assembled a large order of custom Raspberry Pi weatherproof enclosures for an inventory control system used in high-volume manufacturing.

Robust Raspberry Pi Control Enclosure

Working in partnership with the client, we designed this sturdy, hexagonal control enclosure to be weatherproof. The stylish, wall-mounted enclosure is made from a sturdy black ABS UL945VA fire-rated plastic. The waterproof enclosure houses a Raspberry Pi which digitally manages the stock control of components in sectors like automotive and aerospace.

Once we designed and manufactured this weatherproof inventory control box, our custom assembly team then expertly assembled the units on-site at our facilities in Brackley, thereby minimising the hassle for the client by keeping the project under one roof with one point of contact.

We delivered the order on schedule and on budget, and the client was delighted.

Custom Electronic Enclosure Manufacturering

We did it again. We delivered on schedule and on budget despite the tight turnaround times.  As one of the UK’s leading custom electronic enclosure manufacturers, we worked closely with this existing client to ensure that the design of this vented, folded cover fitted perfectly to the injection moulded box they were using. We designed, prototyped, manufactured and delivered this short-run custom electronic cover to meet their deadline.

UK Electronic Enclosure Expertise

This robust, folded electronic cover had ventilation slots and mounting to hold the various time attendance electronic components. It is used indoors in commercial and industrial environments and was painted gun metal grey to match the rest of the injection moulded enclosure. Made from HIPs it also had branded screen printed added. The client was delighted with the product and said:

‘Thank you – you are a star! We really appreciate the care and attention you put into this project to get it delivered on time.’

Custom PCB Enclosures Expertise

We developed this custom PCB enclosure for a new European electronics client. A total of 17 plastic parts were used to create this enclosure. It has rack mounting to allow the PCBs to slide in, some of which are double-stacked.

It is made with off-white ABS UL94V0 and has one colour screen printing to match the brand colourways.

Once the prototype was signed off, we produced 100 units. The client was delighted and we look forward to manufacturing their repeat order.

Medical Response Pad Enclosure Prototype

Here at CDT we had a lot of fun designing and manufacturing this response pad enclosure prototype which was made to look like a gaming controller. It has two parts – a response pad enclosure and a bullring clip with a pivot hinge and clasps with a spring-loaded mechanism to secure it onto laptops and tables.
