30" Roto Shock Racks

These Industrial Roto Shock Rack cases from SKB are an instant success with all companies utilizing deep servers such as Dell, Compaq, and Apple. These portable Shock Racks feature a 30” deep heavy-duty shell that protects an EIA standard shock mounted aluminum frame with front and rear steel rails with 10/32” threaded holes and reversible face plate for square holes. The cases feature a compound hinge system and field replaceable latches that allow the lid to swing completely around to lie flat against the main body of the case. As an alternative, you can go lid-less with an effortless lift motion, reinstalling in seconds with the same ease. The doors are gasketed and the case is provisioned with a pressure relief valve (MIL-STD-648C).

The front and rear lids are designed to protrude into the base of the case approximately 1"; their unique double-wall structure makes them incredibly stiff where this intersection occurs. This new generation of shock racks is engineered to offer MIL-SPEC sealing characteristics with significantly fewer latches than most Roto Shock Racks. This allows for rapid deployment in an up-right configuration — even when the cases are stacked. The standard front-to-rear rail depth is 30" and each lid is 4.5" deep. This SKB shock-rack system stacks securely with the wheels on or off, and its revolutionary design is also the only shock rack that will open front and back while stacked.

This shockrack series features eight elastomeric shocks (load range of 40 to 150 lbs.) with provisions to add additional shocks for an extended payload range. Additional or stiffer shock mounts available and are easily field-installed.

To stand behind the product, these rack cases come with the “Million Mile Guaranty” - you break it…SKB replaces it, for free, for life.

Case Study:Wooden Surgical Instrument Display Case

The Challenge
A medical device manufacturer needed cases to display their surgical products in accordance with user feedback. They wanted a stylish case that would allow the sales force to make a dynamic presentation.

The Response
Our sales and engineering team worked with the customer to develop 30 different kits featuring all the tools used in medical procedures…a few hundred components in all. For the initial kits, Source received all the parts that needed to be incorporated into the presentation. More recently, we were provided with CAD drawings of the parts which provided enough technical information to allow us to propose the optimal layout even though the physical pieces were not available.

The Solution
Source designed a series of wood cases fabricated from maple with a cherry stain and lacquered finish. The top edge of the case was routed to fit a lift-off lid in the recess. Both the lid and front panel were laser engraved with the company identification and logo. The interior was fitted with a die-cut flocked foam insert; each cavity was layered to the appropriate height so the components would lie at the same level. Photo-etched aluminum labels were inserted into foam cavities to identify each product. As products are updated and new ones are introduced, they can be quickly incorporated into the new system.
