Summary
This episode of Inside Electronics, sponsored by DigiKey and Hammond Manufacturing, is a conversation about modified enclosures and how they can better meet design needs. Host Alex Paultre interviews Allyn Weilacher, Marketing Operations Specialist at Hammond. The discussion centers on why enclosures matter as the “body” of an electronic project, protecting components from weather, EMI/RFI, and harsh environments.
They also cover customization choices such as cutouts, labels, internal hardware, materials, IP ratings, and support for grounding or board mounting. A major theme is the practical workflow: Customers can use Hammond or DigiKey tools, upload dimensioned drawings, review pricing, approve a sample, and then place production orders starting at 25 units.
Alix and Allyn emphasize that the process is meant to be intuitive, transparent, and supported by direct engineering help when needed, with saved drawings making repeat orders or minor changes easy.
