Product Feature Breakdown

Shock resistantAir transport

Shock performance on Shockproof Instrument Case for Aviation comes from shell rigidity plus liner damping working together: the shell carries and spreads the impact, while PU/PE foam attenuates peak acceleration to a level the payload tolerates (precision instruments commonly require under 40G). kexinMaterials tunes foam density and cavity clearance to the equipment's mass.

Air freight charges on the greater of actual and volumetric weight (÷6000), so optimising the envelope of Shockproof Instrument Case for Aviation often saves more than shedding mass. Confirm whether lithium batteries or other dangerous goods are inside, which must be declared under IATA DGR; kexinMaterials advises on UN38.3-related packaging.

Standards & Industry Data

Military Vibration (MIL-STD-810H, Method 514.8)

Random-vibration testing spans 20–2,000 Hz to replicate truck, aircraft and battlefield vibration, run for hours per axis; transport spectra cover 2–500 Hz. Passing means the shell-plus-foam system protects precision payloads through long multimodal transit.

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.

Extreme Temperature Performance

Engineering-grade cases typically operate from -30°C to +80°C (military testing follows MIL-STD-810H Methods 501.7/502.7 for temperature and 503.7 for thermal shock, cycling as wide as -40°C↔+71°C). For cold climates choose PP copolymer or PE shells — standard ABS embrittles at low temperatures.

Typical Applications

  • Surveying instrument field carry
  • Third-party lab on-site sampling
  • Metrology equipment calibration logistics
  • Fiber-optic construction toolkits
  • Laboratory relocation and equipment loans
  • Manufacturer co-packing programs

Product Overview

The kexinMaterials Shockproof Instrument Case for Aviation is one-piece molded from engineering plastics, balancing impact strength, sealing and long-term durability — available from stock or fully customized. Key specs below.

On process: the Shockproof Instrument Case for Aviation can be injection, rotational or blow molded. Injection gives precise sealing and repeatability; rotomolding yields large seamless shells with thick-wall toughness; blow molding suits light, economical builds. kexinMaterials runs all three lines and matches the process to your protection grade and budget.

For interior protection, the Shockproof Instrument Case for Aviation ships with or accepts CNC-cut EVA/PE foam, routed to your equipment's 3D data so nothing shifts in transit; precision instruments can add ESD-safe or cushioned layered structures.

On quality, the Shockproof Instrument Case for Aviation passes batch drop, stack and immersion checks; key models can be tested to MIL-STD-810H for drop and vibration, with material and third-party test reports supplied for export and industry acceptance.

Manufacturing Process

High-pressure injection molding keeps shell tolerances tight for reliable sealing, and inserts are CNC-cut after drop-simulation checks. Volume co-packing projects follow a PDI inspection routine so cushioning performance stays consistent across batches.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do you protect an instrument's display panel?

The insert is relieved above the screen so nothing touches the display — load is carried only on the chassis frame, preventing lid pressure from reaching the glass. A soft pad can be added in the lid for two-way protection where needed.

Will air freight pressure lock the case shut?

No. The automatic pressure equalization valve balances internal pressure while keeping the seal waterproof.

Can the case be made moisture-proof or hold desiccant?

Yes. We commonly mold a desiccant pocket into the insert and combine it with IP67 sealing for long-term dryness. For high-value stored instruments we can add humidity indicator cards or a breather-valve version so you can read the internal condition at a glance.

MOQ and lead time?

50 pcs for stock sizes with 7-day dispatch; custom inserts 15–20 days; new tooling 35–45 days.

Do you make 19-inch rack-mount cases?

Yes. We offer rack-frame protective cases supporting 2U to 8U equipment, with the rack isolated from the shell by shock mounts — suitable for field test systems, communications gear and mobile equipment rooms.

What standard sizes are available?

Our stock molds run from roughly 200 mm internal length for handheld meters up to 800 mm-plus for benchtop instrument transit cases, across more than a dozen size steps. Send the instrument's dimensions and weight and we will match the closest existing mold to avoid tooling cost.

Key Terms Explained

Salt fog test
Continuous salt spray exposure per GB/T 10125 or ASTM B117 to assess corrosion resistance of metals and coatings. Case shells are inherently salt-resistant, so the test really evaluates hinges, latches and fasteners — critical for marine applications.
Custom tooling
Building a dedicated mold for a specific case design, giving an exact fit in size and structure. Compared with selecting an existing mold it takes longer (roughly 20–30 days for aluminum tooling, longer for steel) and costs more up front — worthwhile for sustained volume.
Gasket
The elastomeric ring—usually silicone or EPDM—seated in the lid-to-base joint. Latch pressure deforms it to fill the mating gap, making it the core component behind an IP67 seal and a replaceable wear part.

Common Misconceptions

Is thicker foam always better cushioning?

No. Cushioning depends on matching foam density to available deflection travel. Foam that is too soft bottoms out under load; foam that is too firm transmits the shock straight through. Select density from payload mass and allowable G, and ensure sufficient travel — thickness alone is not the variable.

Can any strong case simply be checked as air cargo?

Strength and compliance are separate matters. Air shipment depends on dimensional limits, whether dangerous goods are present (lithium cells, compressed gas, flammable liquids) and whether UN-certified packaging is required. Many high-strength cases are refused because they lack dangerous-goods packaging certification — confirming the UN number and carrier rules matters more than shell strength.
