Enclosure Choices

    Jan. 2, 2008
    One of our readers has posed an interesting question about enclosure choices. His company's packaging machines are custom designed for each application, and in many cases they find that off-the-shelf enclosures won't work. Although the major enclosure manufacturers tout the ability to build custom panels, they haven't been happy with the prices, delivery or service. Are there better alternatives?
