Large Gimbal Camera Case: confirm internal dimensions first (equipment size plus foam allowance), then protection rating (IP67 is the benchmark) and shell material (PP for value, ABS for surface hardness, rotomolded PE for large sizes). Custom sizes available via tooling.
A drone case is a purpose-built transport case for quadcopters, batteries and controllers, with CNC-cut EVA or foam inserts shaped to the airframe to prevent impact and vibration damage in transit.
Large Gimbal Camera Case: Product & Manufacturer Overview
Battery logistics is the hidden risk in drone operations. Our Large Gimbal Camera Case line offers flame-retardant battery compartments with pressure-relief design to contain thermal-runaway events during field work and bulk transport.
For UAV manufacturers and system integrators, kexinMaterials supplies the Large Gimbal Camera Case as a factory-direct OEM partner — cases can ship in your branding, packed to your production schedule, turning transport protection into part of the product experience.

How kexinMaterials Compares
| Dimension | kexinMaterials | Generic market cases |
|---|---|---|
| Protection | IP67 + silicone gasket + pressure valve for field use | Often unsealed, risky in rain |
| Foam | Model-specific CNC-cut library (mapping/spraying/inspection) | Generic foam, props/gimbal crushed |
| Battery safety | Separate battery bay, flame-retardant foam, venting | Batteries mixed with airframe, no isolation |
| Strength/weight | Modified PP copolymer, thin yet tough, lighter kit | Uneven walls, heavier overall |
| MOQ | Stock for popular models, custom from 100 pcs | Mostly reselling, high custom barrier |
| Export docs | UN38.3 / ISTA 3A guidance provided | Compliance docs missing |
Large-format note: cases over 800 mm per side are best rotomolded — seamless walls, high tear resistance — and should add wheels, forklift channels and multi-person handles.
Standards & Industry Data
Foam Inserts (EVA / PU / XLPE)
Three insert materials dominate: EVA (closed-cell, waterproof, firm support for precision instruments), PU foam (open-cell, soft cushioning, economical) and XLPE (chemically inert, non-shedding — preferred for medical and optics). CNC pockets are cut from the equipment's 3D data; drawing-to-first-sample typically takes 1–2 weeks.
Military Drop Test (MIL-STD-810H, Method 516.8 Proc. IV)
MIL-STD-810H (8th revision, 2019; 29 test methods) requires transit-drop samples to survive 26 drops from up to 5 ft (1.5 m) onto steel-backed concrete in varied orientations. Versus 810G, the H revision raised drop height from 4 ft to 5 ft and switched to a harder steel-backed surface.
IP Ratings (IEC 60529)
In IP67, the “6” means dust-tight (no dust ingress after a 2 kPa vacuum dust test) and the “7” means temporary immersion: the enclosure survives 30 minutes at 1 m depth with its highest point at least 150 mm below the surface, per IEC 60529 Clause 14.2.7.
Typical Applications
- Mapping and inspection UAV field operations
- Agricultural drone transport between sites
- Underwater ROV dockside and onboard storage
- FPV racing and training carry
- OEM co-packing for drone manufacturers
- Robot prototype shipping for R&D labs
Sizing & Selection Guide
To size a Large Gimbal Camera Case, measure the largest 3D dimensions of the payload and allow 30–50 mm per side for foam, then match against internal case dimensions. Above 30 kg payloads, add wheels and reinforced bases.
kexinMaterials stocks a full size run from personal cases to large transit trunks with published internal dimensions; if nothing fits, we evaluate mold revisions or new tooling — selection advice is free.
Manufacturing Process
Injection-molded shells deliver maximum protection for complete aircraft and ground stations, while thermo-compressed EVA composite shells serve weight-critical backpack applications. Battery compartments use flame-retardant compounds with engineered vent paths.
Field Case Studies
Developed 8,000 transit cases with separate blade and battery bays; zero transport-damage complaints across the 2023 peak season.
1,500 CNC-cut cases for a hexacopter with tablet and controller bays, passing ISTA 3A transit testing.
