Aluminum Cases

Aluminum cases command attention. Their sleek but authoritative appearance and lightweight yet durable construction make them the perfect solution for presentation cases, sales kits, promotional cases, carrying cases, and shipping cases. They are also an ideal option for OEM applications when you need to build your equipment and instrumentation directly into a case.

Cases By Source offers a wide range of aluminum cases to satisfy every requirement — from light-duty to heavy-duty, smooth and shiny to rugged and diamond plate, stock or custom to customized stock, the possibilities are endless: Our Fabricated Aluminum and Molded Aluminum cases are available in a wide-range of stock sizes and are economically priced for use as attaché cases or corporate training kits with customized interiors. Our custom-made Alumiwrap cases provide a wealth of promotional opportunities — they can be fabricated in many different sizes and colors and silk-screened with company logos. The MIL-Aluminum series is fabricated from .063 and .080 aluminum (.10 and greater for military applications) and welded for maximum strength to protect everything from weapons to sensitive instrumentation. And rugged Zarges Cases will protect your products during transport in extreme weather conditions. They feature a gasket weatherproof seal, stainless-steel hinges, and welded seams for stability and strength. The MIL-Aluminum and Zarges Cases also meet the most demanding military specifications for a shipping case.

Custom foam interiors can add value and a finishing touch to any of these aluminum cases. Depending on the fabrication process, cases can be produced in quantities as low as 10 cases!

Case Study:Color Test Kit

Color Test Kit

The Challenge

A leading company in color control systems came to Source to redesign their color test kit. The existing case was wood and had four wood trays holding the color chips.

The Response

The client wanted a bold new look to bring their case into the 21st century - our aluminum case provided the desired look. Molded plastic trays with clear lids were proposed instead of the wood trays, which would allow the color chips to be seen when the case is open.

The Solution and Results

Source designed and manufactured a low profile smooth aluminum case with chrome hardware. A four color label is attached to the front of the case. The base of the case is lined with EVA polyethylene foam while charcoal polyurethane foam in the id secures the thermoformed color chip trays. Each tray is thermoformed from black matte HIPS, with a clear lid allowing colors to be viewed while secure within the tray. The base and lid of the tray are CNC cut to provide a clean, smooth edge. CNC cutting increases individual unit prices, but eliminates the necessity for additional tooling. The color chips are arranged in color sequence in the trays, covered and placed into the carry case.
