🔎 Explore every detail

Choosing the right protective cover for your robot is essential. Thanks to vacuum forming technology, we achieve exceptional precision and detail that is comparable to that of injection molding. Each cover is designed to not only protect but also aesthetically complement your robotic equipment. From lightweight and easily formable materials such as PET and HIPS, to engineering plastics such as ABS with customizable stiffness and hardness, to PVC with high chemical resistance and natural flame retardancy, or polycarbonate (PC) known for its extreme impact resistance and high transparency – we always find the optimal solution for the specific requirements of your application.

Vacuum forming enables the efficient production of complex and large parts, ensuring that your robot receives a housing that is not only robust but also perfectly fitting. This method also provides design flexibility and the ability to iterate quickly, which is crucial in the dynamic world of robotics.

💔 Are you bothered by the limited protection and aesthetics of your robot?

Your robotic investment deserves the best possible protection. Standardized housings often lack the precision, durability and aesthetic harmony that are essential for high-end robots. An unsuitable housing can reduce component life, affect performance and even detract from the overall appearance of your equipment. The risk of damaging sensitive components in harsh environments is high, and choosing the wrong material can lead to rapid wear or failure of the housing.

✨ Take back control with precision protective covers!

Introducing a solution that precisely matches the needs of your humanoid and AI robots. Our vacuum-formed housings offer unparalleled customization, premium materials, and seamless integration with the robot design. They not only provide excellent mechanical protection, but also aesthetically enhance the appearance of your device. With a range of advanced plastics to choose from, you can optimize the housing properties for any specific application, ensuring maximum durability and reliability.

❓ Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

What is vacuum forming (thermoforming)?

Vacuum forming is a manufacturing process in which a flat plastic sheet is heated to a forming temperature and then drawn through a mold using a vacuum. This creates precise plastic parts with sharp details comparable to those from injection molding.

What types of robots are these covers suitable for?

The covers are ideal for a wide range of robots, including humanoid, AI robots, industrial arms, service robots, and DIY projects where specific protection and aesthetics are required.

What materials are available and how do you choose the right one?

We offer a choice of materials such as ABS (for rigidity), PC (for impact resistance and transparency), PVC (for chemical resistance), HIPS and PET/PETG (for ductility and transparency). The choice depends on your application - whether the product will be exposed to heat, cold, impact, chemicals or UV radiation.

Can I order a transparent protective cover?

Yes, some materials like polycarbonate (PC), PETG, and PET offer high transparency, allowing for the production of visually appealing or functional transparent parts for your robot.

How long does it take to make a custom cover?

The exact time frame depends on the complexity of the design and the material chosen. The process includes design, mold manufacturing, vacuum forming itself, and CNC machining. An efficient process minimizes lead time.

Are these covers UV resistant?

UV resistance depends on the material chosen. Some plastics, such as ABS, require a protective layer for extended exposure to sunlight. We can help you choose the right material or treatment.

How is the quality and accuracy of the resulting cover ensured?

Quality is guaranteed by the use of modern manufacturing processes including precision vacuum forming and sophisticated 5-axis CNC machining, which ensures sharp details and perfect dimensions.
