Stainless Steel Enclosure Cover Manufacturing and Supply
An expansive space that will straddle LA’s famed Wilshire Boulevard, the project will feature 110,000 square feet of gallery space in one single level to display and present art in a non-hierarchical, egalitarian way. As part of the new building, Clark will construct a new theater, education spaces, three restaurants, a museum shop, multi-purpose event spaces, and ancillary and back-of-house facilities.
The California Building for the Permanent Collection is slated to open to the public in 2024.

Stainless Steel Enclosure Cover Manufacturing and Supply
We got a gig to whip up an enclosure cover as protection for a machine, made from sturdy stainless steel. The client handed us detailed drawings in PDF, but to get the job done, we needed those files in .dxf format for laser cutting and bending.
Specs
- Length: 990mm
- Width: 630mm
- Height: 1300mm
- Weight: About 80kgs
Outcome
The end product was a solid, durable enclosure that’s built to last and keep the machine safe. With top-quality stainless steel, precise cutting, and a bit of Aussie ingenuity, this enclosure cover is ready to take on whatever comes its way.
The Process
First off, we converted the sheet metal drawings into .dxf files using CAD software. Once that was sorted, we got stuck into laser cutting and bending the stainless steel. After a bit of cutting and bending, we did some small welding jobs to pull it all together.
The enclosure’s got a polycarbonate glass panel up front so you can see what the machine’s up to. This glass is tough as nails—completely unbreakable. We crafted the louvers from stainless steel using a press brake machine and attached them with rivet joints to keep everything nice and secure.
For easy access, we slapped on a hinge for opening and closing the top door. The bottom of the enclosure has a welded angular profile to handle the weight of the whole structure. And for easy lifting, we screwed eye bolts into the four corners.
