CNC punched gear trays
Simple gear trays recently produced by V and F Sheet Metal
Lighting gear trays are often manufactured by us to hold all the electrical gear for LED and florescent tube style fittings. The base material may be mild steel and powder coated white or a pre-coated white mild steel depending on the volume and price constrictions. We can also make them in aluminium to help as a combined heat sink with LED lighting options. The white surface is normally used as a simple reflector as well keeping the amount of parts down in the overall design and therefore reducing the cost. Some of the holes have been plunged formed to allow self tapping screws to bight into a thin gauge of material without stripping the threads which is simple on a Trumpf CNC punch press. These gear trays have been punched ready for T5 lamps and will have two bends along their length to stiffen up the trays before assembly. These are typical of the CNC punched work we produce all the time for our lighting customers but similar non-lighting work is being produced every day of the week and we would be happy to quote to produce your sheet metal trays, boxes, brackets etc
