The rack rails for this product are constructed in 12-gauge steel, with base angles constructed in 1/4″ steel plates, and features EIA-310-E compliant 12-24 threaded mounting rails on one side, with square holes on the reverse – this includes marked rack unit dividers to aid in equipment mounting.
igus has recently designed a one-piece, injection-molded energy chain in its E1 series, offering a simplified and more reliable cable management solution for highly compact spaces. Designers often skip cable guides in small installations — such as in food vending machines, laboratory equipment or electric doors — risking cable damage and increasing maintenance costs. This new, compact energy chain is engineered to close that gap.

Its economical thick-wall design includes tamper-resistant screws, a tool-free soft strap hinge, and easy wall mounting via polyamide feet and through-base pods positioned outside the gasket seal.
One of the biggest benefits with modular enclosures is how they simplify and accelerate configuration and installation in service of helping companies reduce lead times and navigate labor shortages. Plus, the modular design of such enclosures helps reduce your bill of materials (BOM) and makes it easier to maintain enclosures in the field. However, it can be a challenge finding a modular enclosure that marries this level of flexibility with the required durability and rigidity necessary for deployment in more intense or extreme industrial applications. This kind of enhanced protection was usually reserved for unibody enclosures, but Rittal’s new VX Hybrid Double Door enclosure changes the game, providing exceptional durability and rigidity without complicating the configuration and installation process.
Siemens’ new line of SIPANEL industrial control panels are designed for protection, automation and control applications in industrial automation and power distribution. Now engineered and assembled at Siemens’ Electrification and Automation facility in Wendell, N.C., the fully customizable solution combines Siemens’ technology with end-to-end manufacturing excellence for enhanced functionality, efficiency, and reliability across a wide array of industries.
OKW can now supply its plastic enclosures with bespoke internal metal brackets and mounting plates for displays and other large components. The company’s METCASE metal enclosures division designs and manufactures the custom aluminum parts in-house. One recent project of this type involved OKW’s CARRYTEC handheld enclosures. Two brackets fitted to the lid allowed a display to be flush mounted; a self-adhesive label covered the join between screen and case. Another mounting plate, fitted in the base, was designed to support a power supply.
Boyd, whose end-to-end artificial intelligence (AI) liquid cooling technologies make it easier for data center owners and operators to implement new AI infrastructure, recently announced it has developed a new rack simulating thermal testing tool to help end clients efficiently deploy liquid cooled data centers and improve time to market. Boyd’s Rack Emulator simulates the pressure drop and heat dissipation of a server and uses automation to test coolant distribution units (CDUs) to validate thermal performance before connecting to data center equipment, such as NVIDIA GB200 NVL72 platforms.
Rittal is proud to announce the MGX Architecture Rack, a purpose-built cabinet designed for 19″ rails and AI applications. Developed in close collaboration with NVIDIA and manufactured by Rittal for demonstration at the OCP Global Summit, this solution is engineered to support NVIDIA GB200 NVL72 , NVIDIA GB300 NVL72, and Vera Rubin NVL144 systems. This NVIDIA MGX Rack brings a production-focused, scalable enclosure option to customers deploying high-density AI infrastructure.
RS offers a comprehensive selection of high-quality, cost-effective, and installation-ready RS PRO maintenance solutions designed to meet the needs of today’s busy industrial maintenance, repair, and operations (MRO) professionals and arrive on time and under budget. Industrial maintenance is essential for ensuring regulatory compliance and personnel and equipment safety in the discrete and process manufacturing, energy and utilities, and facilities and intralogistics industries, and — depending on the approach — can deliver a host of other valuable benefits as well.
