When you’re transporting delicate and expensive equipment, you need to be sure that it arrives safely and in perfect working condition. Whether its to show to potential customers, transporting to a buyer, demonstrating while on the road, or any other reason; safety is vital. And when it comes to safe transportation, nothing beats a custom aluminum case. Custom aluminum cases offer a wide range of benefits, a few of which we’ll walk you through today.
Strength and Lightness
One of the first things to know about custom aluminum is that it is incredibly light despite its strength. This combo is of the essence when shipping and traveling with materials. If a case is too heavy, the risk of dropping it and the price of transportation increase significantly. If you’re shipping something large, the weight adds up quickly, and aluminum can help counteract some of the problems. In addition, the strength is improved over other materials despite the lightness. It outpaces wood and even plastic in that regard. This helps to ensure that your items are protected from many types of damage.
Weather Resistant
Even high impact plastic cases begin to become worn by the effects of weather and UV rays over time. Aluminum, on the other hand, is impervious to the impact of the weather. When placed under significant stress, any rubber gaskets on the interior that allow for complete waterproofing may become worn and need to be replaced. But you can rest assured knowing that your aluminum case will not fail you no matter the weather.
Invaluable Electronic Protection
For delicate electronic materials like those used by doctors and the military, having protection from outward electrical surges and effect is critical. Aluminum is an optimal choice in this regard as it is the leader in electronic integration and protection. Electrostatic charges are reduced, and it makes a perfect choice for EMI shielding and can deflect radar and radio signals.
Better Heat Conductivity
If you need to transport your goods through areas with intense heat and cold, aluminum is your best bet. Unlike plastic and wood which can shrink and warp due to extreme temperatures, aluminum dispels and scatters concentrated heat sources and keeps what’s inside safe.
