Select the structure
Compare one-piece and two-piece shields, then assess service access, can height, mounting and matched components.
Resources are organized around selection tasks. Compare one-piece and two-piece structures when deciding on service access; review materials and processes when choosing a manufacturing route; prepare drawings and requirements when requesting a quotation.
These resources help establish a shared specification. Drawings, approved samples and project validation remain the basis for the final dimensions, assembly and performance requirements.
Start with the pages relevant to your current design stage, then bring specific questions to the engineering review.
Compare one-piece and two-piece shields, then assess service access, can height, mounting and matched components.
Use the materials guide and manufacturing overview to discuss thickness, finish and forming requirements.
Gather the drawing revision, application, quantities, critical dimensions, packaging and validation requirements.

A useful engineering brief pairs each requirement with an inspection method. Terms such as high precision, high shielding or corrosion-resistant need defined acceptance conditions.
| Requirement | Supporting information |
|---|---|
| Dimensions | Units, datums, tolerances and critical features |
| Material | Grade, thickness and surface finish |
| Assembly | Mating parts, mounting method and operating clearance |
| Validation | Conditions, methods and acceptance criteria |
| Delivery | Quantity, packaging, documents and milestones |
Adding openings, changing can height, switching material or revising contacts should trigger updates to the drawings and affected inspection requirements. State the change scope if new samples are needed.
When the information is ready, use the contact page to prepare your inquiry. Sample fees apply: standard samples take 3–5 days, expedited sampling 48 hours, and tooling and sample production 7–10 days. These timings cover the sample stage, excluding volume production and delivery; the plan is confirmed during engineering review.
