System solutions

Because of modern production facilities and great experience within production of front panels and keyboards, Metalwo is a strong strategic partner in developing and manufacturing complete customised system solutions.

Metalwo often undertakes the complete construction of a front panel or a cabinet, even if the system solution comprises integration of touch screens, EMI shielding, special windows, metal or plastic moulded cabinets, PCB mounting or other requirements.

Metalwo is also leading in dispensing of silicone on front panels or cabinets. Due to a modern technology process, Metalwo can ensure the customer a high-end finish and fulfil many requirements. For example, Metalwo can meet requirements like a waterproof front panel solution, a unique and high-end design or dispensing of a custom gasket for optimising the mounting process. Please see the silicone dispensing under “processes” as well.

By involving Metalwo in designing and manufacturing of a system solution, the customer can often save time, resources and reduce costs in this process. Consequently, the customer can focus on the electronics and functionality of the device.
