Unlike devices that plug in or have firmware, enclosures do not have active electronic functionality and are sometimes considered as the "most basic" products in the industry. But do not get carried away only by appearances since their importance should not be underestimated, they have the great responsibility of protecting the whole system for its proper functioning.

Why is crucial to provide my KIWI boards with the enclosure?

There is no doubt that the enclosure mounted in the KIWI boards plays a vital role in providing protected housing for the electronic components of our embedded system.

Besides, the enclosure guarantees the safety, security, and integrity of the PCB by shielding it from environmental factors such as dust, corrosive substances, static electricity and even unauthorized access.

As a result, the entire system benefits as the risk of system downtimes caused by damage or malfunctions are reduced.

Which considerations should I have while choosing/designing the enclosure?

When selecting or designing the enclosure for your KIWI boards in addition to considering the general requirements there are certain extra key factors to keep in mind:

Considerations for KIWI boards enclosures

Which material should I choose for my KIWI boards enclosure?

The KIWI board enclosures may be crafted from a variety of materials chosen based on the needs including the intended application, the surrounding environment and the level of protection required. Below there are some examples of materials used for enclosures of industrial field and IoT applications:

• Metals: Steel, aluminium, and stainless steel are frequently chosen for their robustness, strength, and resistance. These metals stand out in industrial applications, enduring harsh environments or frequent use.

• Plastics: Polycarbonate, ABS, and PVC are lightweight yet durable materials preferred for their impact resistance, chemical resistance, and low electrical conductivity. Plastics find use in IoT applications where weight is a concern or medical devices that require protection against corrosion.
