01 / What We Fabricate
Sheet Metal Built Around Robot-Cell Interfaces
A process-cell enclosure brings panels, doors, roof sections, ventilation connections and material openings together around an integrator's released cell design. Repeat fit depends on controlling the frame and interface stack, not only the outside dimensions of each panel.
Framed Service Doors
Hinged or lift-off doors with drawing-defined latch, window, gasket and interlock-mount provisions.
Process Openings
Transfer tunnels, robot loading ports, cable entries and duct transitions located from released cell datums.
Wear and Service Parts
Replaceable lower liners, access covers, chip or spatter trays and other drawing-defined service components.
Our scope: build-to-print robotic cell enclosure metalwork
The integrator owns risk assessment, functional safety, interlocks, process classification, extraction, fire protection and final cell validation. DRAmetal manufactures the released frames, panels, doors and interfaces to the agreed drawings and inspection plan.
02 / Robotic Process Cell Types
Fabricated Enclosure Packages for Different Processes
The integrator defines the process hazards and required containment. Our manufacturing scope converts that released design into repeatable frames, panels, doors and hardware-ready assemblies.
Laser Process Robotic Laser Cell Enclosures
Opaque modular panels, roof sections, framed observation-window provisions and service access built to the integrator's released design.
- Scope Walls, roof, doors
- Interfaces Frame and process ports
- Boundary Build to print
Welding Robotic Welding Cell Enclosures
Panel and door packages with duct transitions, removable lower sections and drawing-defined process openings.
- Parts Panels, doors, duct parts
- Frame Welded or modular
- Finish Drawing-defined
Deburring Robotic Deburring Cell Enclosures
Opaque containment panels, lower liner modules and transfer openings for robotic grinding and deburring equipment.

04 / Manufacturing Process
From Integrator Cell Model to Panel Kit
01
Cell Interface Review
Confirm frame datums, panel bays, doors, process openings, duct connections and installation sequence.
02
Panel and Door DFM
Review seams, bend access, reinforcement, hardware, gasket paths and service clearances.
03
Cutting and Forming
Produce repeat panels and frames while controlling holes, flanges, cutouts and visible surfaces.
04
Frame and Door Assembly
Fixture weld frames and install drawing-defined hinges, latches, windows, gaskets and inserts.
05
Trial Fit and Inspection
Check panel joints, door operation, process openings and mounting interfaces against the released cell scheme.
06
Bay-Based Packout
Group panels and hardware by cell side, bay, door and assembly sequence.
05 / Why It Matters
Why a Robot-Cell Enclosure Is More Than a Set of Panels
Frame variation, hardware stack and panel sequence can accumulate across a large enclosure. A repeat build needs shared datums, controlled interfaces and a packout plan that follows installation.
Door Geometry
Hinge and latch locations, frame squareness and gasket stack affect repeat opening, closing and service access.
Process Interfaces
Transfer openings, ducts and cable entries must align with the integrator's released equipment positions.
Panel Sequencing
Overlaps and removable sections must be packed and installed in the intended order.
System Boundary
The integrator retains responsibility for process safety, interlocks, extraction, classification and final validation.

09 / FAQ
Robotic Cell Sheet Metal Enclosure FAQ
What robotic cell enclosure components can you fabricate?
Typical scope includes welded frames, wall and roof panels, service doors, access covers, lower liners, plinths, transfer tunnels, duct transitions and cable-entry parts.
Do you certify the complete robot cell?
No. We manufacture build-to-print metalwork. The integrator remains responsible for risk assessment, guarding strategy, interlocks, process classification and final validation.
Can enclosure panels be trial fitted before shipping?
Yes. The RFQ can define full or partial trial assembly, critical-bay fit checks, door operation checks and required records.
Can you supply doors with hardware and gaskets?
Yes. Drawing-defined hinges, latches, handles, windows, gaskets, inserts and mounting provisions can be installed and inspected.
What is needed for a robot-cell enclosure RFQ?
Send the released cell model, 2D drawings, frame datums, panel and door schedule, process openings, hardware, finish, inspection scope and quantity.
