Automatic Enclosure CAD Template Generator

This free, easy-to-use tool will design a blank enclosure for you in a CAD format of your choice, and email it to you right away. All you have to do is open the design in your own CAD package, and add details such as custom cutouts, fasteners, brackets, partitions, and hardware. In addition to saving time by doing part of the work for you, you can also be assured that the basic enclosure design can be manufactured by Protocase, thereby avoiding time-consuming rounds of design submission, rejection, and modification. Please see our Terms & Conditions .

Step 4: Review and Submit:

Bowing: If your U-Shape or L-Shape enclosure design uses material that is greater than 0.048" (1.2mm) thick and measures more than 12" (304.8mm) wide, your enclosure's cover may bow when it is manufactured. To prevent this, we recommend adding extra flanges and self-clinching fasteners to your design in order to better secure the cover to the chassis.
