A steel cover panel with vent slots, drawn shallow for stiffness then slotted. The panel covers electronics or moving parts while the slots pass cooling air. Slot pattern and placement are made to your drawing – this one is a repeat OEM pattern.
Function and Design
The cover panel is small in the bill of materials and large in the warranty claim when it goes wrong. Tolerances that matter are confirmed with capability data before the cover panel is quoted.
What Makes It Work
- Vents are pierced with hard tooling after forming – clean edges, exact placement, no rework.
- Slots are pierced with hard tooling – clean edges at exact positions, batch after batch.
- Deburred edges and clean surfaces on arrival, ready for your line.
- Material: carbon steel (SPCC / DC01 or to print) from verified mills, so repeat orders of the cover panel land on the same grade every time.
- Process: the cover panel is deep drawn from coil or blank, trimmed and pierced in subsequent dies, burr-free piercing on the second operation.
- Finish: Natural by default on the cover panel; plating, powder and e-coat options priced with the quotation.
- Size: Cover panel size to drawing, with the agreed version governing every later batch.
- Custom: OEM/ODM to print: the cover panel quotation includes material advice and tooling cost.
Applications
In service you will find this part in electrical enclosures and junction boxes, battery and energy-storage components, automotive sensor and motor housings.
Why Source It From Aunov
We draw in house on maintained presses and inspect first articles on the CMM. Blank size, lubrication and die condition are logged per run, so when your tenth order matches the first it is not a coincidence.
