Boxes

1. Overview

Boxes, enclosures, and racks are critical components for housing, protecting, and organizing electronic, electrical, and mechanical systems. Boxes provide physical protection for individual devices, enclosures offer environmental and safety shielding, while racks standardize mounting and space utilization. These solutions ensure operational reliability, thermal management, and efficient system integration across industries.

2. Main Types and Functional Classification

Type	Functional Features	Application Examples
Boxes	Compact protection with portability	Instrument cases, outdoor equipment
Enclosures	Environmental sealing (IP ratings)	Industrial control panels, telecom cabinets
Racks	Standardized 19"/23" mounting	Data center servers, audio/video systems

3. Structure and Components

Typical construction includes:

Material: Steel/aluminum alloys (80%+ market share), polycarbonate
Thermal management: Vented panels, fan systems (40-60 CFM airflow)
Mounting: DIN rails, adjustable shelves, cable glands
Protection: Gaskets (IP54-IP68), EMI shielding coatings

4. Key Technical Specifications

Parameter	Importance	Typical Range
IP Rating	Environmental protection	IP20-IP68
Load Capacity	Structural integrity	50-2000 kg
Thermal Dissipation	Electronics longevity	100-3000 W/m
Dimensional Tolerance	Installation compatibility	0.5-2 mm

5. Application Fields

Key industries include:

IT & Telecom: Server racks (19" standard), 5G base stations
Industrial Automation: PLC control cabinets (IP65-rated)
Medical: MRI machine enclosures (EMI shielding)
Energy: Solar inverter boxes (IP66 protection)

6. Leading Manufacturers

Company	Representative Product
