When designing a custom case it is helpful to think of your unique needs and what the case is to be used for.
When you choose a custom case for your needs, you’re going to have to make a lot of decisions on the details of its manufacture. It is critical that you take stock of all of the demands that your case is going to have to undergo. Custom cases are able to be designed to exacting specifications, so no matter what situations it needs to survive, we can design one to incorporate them to ensure your cargo makes it to its destination safely. Here are some strategies you should employ and things to think about when choosing the right custom case.
Worst-Case Scenarios
It’s pretty easy to think up the situations that your case is expected to operate in and make adjustments accordingly. For example, if a case is expected to be waterproof, a purge valve can be implemented into the design of the case. But worst-case scenarios are less certain and should be taken into account. You never know when a case with your precious cargo might be dropped or take a shocking blow. Different materials and foam inserts allow different levels of protection so make sure you’re taking all contingencies into account when designing your case.
External Materials
Custom cases can use many different kinds of material on the outside depending on the unique needs of your cargo. Review these materials to choose the right one for your needs. If you need a case that can handle EMI or RF frequencies, you should go for a case made of aluminum as these are great for handling them. Plastic, on the other hand, is perfect for shipping in tough conditions or high altitudes.
Internal Materials
Likewise, you should think about using proper inserts if you’re planning on transporting highly sensitive cargo. You might go with a material like polyurethane foam if you’re transporting electronics or to help lessen the overall weight of the case. Or you might choose expanded polystyrene for shipping perishable material. Either way, the experts at Packing Strategies Incorporated can sit with you and make recommendations for your custom case based on your unique needs.
