FAQs: Medical Device Enclosures for Healthcare Applications

Enclosures serve to house, protect, and contain and shield the electronics, sensors, and components within diagnostic and therapeutic devices. For instance, the housings of patient monitors, portable diagnostic equipment like ultrasound and ECG machines, and the enclosures of laboratory analyzers, which protect the optical and fluidic systems, are all considered enclosures. As well, infusion pumps and imaging equipment used for X-rays and CT scans have enclosures which contain sealed electronics, and powered surgical devices, housing elements of energy delivery systems, and disposable point-of-care testing devices also have enclosures. Additional examples include ventilators and anesthesia machines, defibrillators, and telemedicine equipment cases. These also extend to home healthcare devices and housings for specialized medical equipment.

Aluminum 6061-T6 and 5052 alloys provide excellent electromagnetic shielding to attenuate more than 60 dB, high thermal conductivity to dissipate heat from electronics at 167 watts per meter-Kelvin, lightweight construction, good machinability to integrate functional and aesthetic features, such as mounting bosses and ventilation grilles, natural corrosion resistance, and precipitation hardening for increased strength. Stainless steels 304 and 316 L provide substantial impact resistance for portable equipment, electropolished surface finishes with Ra below 0.4 microns to ease cleaning validation, superior corrosion resistance to disinfectants used in hospitals, and high aesthetic value. Medical-grade steel provides the heaviest and most cost-effective medical equipment, as well as impressive weldability for large fabricated assemblies. Engineered plastics, such as ABS and polycarbonate, are cost-effective for disposable equipment, provide adequate chemical resistance, and offer design flexibility for ergonomic shapes, and electrical insulation.

Multi-axis CNC milling performs all necessary processes to manufacture complex three-dimensional medical device enclosures with integrated mounting structures, ventilation patterns, integrated cable management channels, and enclosures with varying degrees of thermal management features such as heat sink fins. Face milling of the blank settles the enclosure with IP-rated environmental protection to within +/- 0.010 in flatness. Pocket milling of the blank performs the internals for the modular components with integration of electronics for enclosures with varying degrees of thermal management features such as heat sink fins. Coordinated drilling of enclosure mounting holes and of cutout panels with a prescribed control of position within +/- 0.005 in guarantees alignment of nested panels for mounting. Threads for closure and mounting control interfaces are generated with thread milling. Seal grooves for O-rings are IP sealed for IP65 or IP67 rated protection. Electropolishing to a hygenic standard surface of CNC machined stainless steel completes the enclosure.

Regarding the tolerances for machining of enclosures used in medical devices, the tolerances achieved are: flatness of sealing surfaces within 0.010 in, position of mounting holes within +/- 0.005 in for alignment of panels and components, seal grooves for gaskets of compression within +/- 0.003 in, wall thickness maintenance of +/- 0.010 in for balance and structural integrity, overall housing dimensions +/- 0.020 in, critical interface dimensions within +/- 0.005 in for control and alignment of standardized assembly components and mounting systems, along with nested medical device enclosures.

Yes, we provide rapid prototyping to verify fit and test assembly, with same-day CAD-to-part capability available for critical projects. For custom automation cells and research platforms, we perform low-volume production of 20 to 500 brackets. For standardized robot models, we perform high-volume production of thousands to tens of thousands of brackets annually, incorporating complete dimensional inspection, flatness verification, and material certifications.

All components are manufactured to ISO 13485 certified quality management systems, ensuring seamless compliance to FDA regulations for medical equipment housings, and meeting European Medical Device Regulation (MDR) requirements, IEC 60601-1 standards for safety of medical electrical equipment including mechanical construction and electromagnetic compatibility for medical devices per IEC 60601-1-2, IP rating standards on ingress protection against moisture and particulates, traceability and Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP) standards. This guarantee reliable equipment protection and patient safety.

We provide comprehensive finishing solutions tailored to aerospace requirements:
Anodizing (Type II and Type III)
Passivation for corrosion resistance
Precision polishing for aerodynamic surfaces
Custom protective coatings and thermal barriers

Standard equipment housings with sealing surface preparation, finishing, and machining requires 12–18 business days, whereas complex multi-cavity enclosures with integrated thermal management take 5–6 weeks. Rapid device development and certification timelines are accommodated as regulatory testing prototype enclosures are completed within 8–12 days.

Indeed, we create custom sealed enclosures designed to meet the needs of various medical and surgical applications, including those that involve washdown procedures, IP67/IP68 waterproof enclosures, EMI-shielded enclosures and housings for sensitive diagnostic instrumentation protected up to 100 dB, thermally enhanced enclosures with integrated heat sinks designed for 50 to 500 watts, and ruggedized enclosures compliant with MIL-STD-810 for field military and emergency response medical equipment, cleanroom enclosures to ISO Class 5 cleanroom standards with particulate and cleanroom-compatible enclosures, rugged portable cases of less than 5 kilograms for handheld and portable devices, field-modifiable and maintenance modular enclosures, and integrated designs that house protective enclosures with display windows, user interfaces, mounts, and integrated systems for accessories.

Milling seals to a flatness of 0.010 inches guarantees a proper working seal achieves an enclosure protection rating of IP65 to IP68. As a result, moisture and contaminants that could destroy device electronics get sealed out. This greatly assures device reliability. Mounting components to within ±0.005 inches guarantees poorly aligned displays, connectors, user controls, and controls. Appropriate wall thickness and strategic reinforcement greatly ensure structural integrity drop tested from 1 meter height as specified in IEC 60601-1. This blocks protection poorly aligned displays, connectors, user controls, and controls. Appropriate wall thickness and strategic reinforcement greatly ensure structural integrity drop tested from a 1 meter height as specified in IEC 60601-1. This blocks protection drop from 1 meter height and protection. Electro-magnetic shielding can be as high as 100dB meeting IEC 60601-1-2. This receiving and immunity protection from electronic shielding can be as high as 100dB. Other components ensure thermal management shielding to maintain electronics below 60 degrees Celsius.
Quality manufacturing enables reliable equipment protection to support the device lifetime of 5 to 15 years in hospital environments, operating rooms, intensive care units, laboratories, and point-of-care settings.
