Build your next industrial control panel with our essential Sheet Metal Control Box drawing. This free MechStream download provides a comprehensive, fabrication-ready blueprint for a standard electrical enclosure, the protective heart of countless automation systems, machinery, and electrical installations. Fabricating a custom control box ensures a perfect fit for your components and environment, often proving more cost-effective and durable than standard off-the-shelf options for specific needs.
This drawing package is engineered to save electrical engineers, panel builders, and machine designers significant design and drafting time. It offers a complete, professional template for a robust sheet metal enclosure designed to safely house PLCs, VFDs, power supplies, relays, terminals, and operator controls. The design emphasizes ease of fabrication, structural integrity, and proper sealing, forming the basis for NEMA or IP-rated protection against dust, moisture, and impact in industrial settings.
Forget the hassle of starting from scratch. Our download includes universally compatible DWG, DXF, and PDF formats, allowing you to instantly send the plans to your sheet metal shop or load them into your preferred CAD software for modification. You can easily adjust dimensions, add specific cutouts for HMIs or buttons, or change material specifications.
