01 / What We Fabricate
Robot Parts That Connect Structure, Sensors and Electronics
A robot platform needs more than a welded chassis. Controller housings, sensor brackets, battery trays, service covers and guards must all locate from shared mechanical interfaces and remain synchronized as the platform changes.
Sensor Brackets
Camera, lidar, proximity and navigation mounts with controlled orientation and protected sensor datums.
Battery and Service Parts
Battery trays, slide-out covers, guards and removable panels designed for repeat maintenance access.
Production Kits
Mixed robot parts grouped by platform, module, drawing revision and assembly station.
Our scope: build-to-print robotics sheet metal parts and module kits
The robotics OEM owns motion safety, controls, sensor calibration and final machine validation. DRAmetal manufactures the released mechanical parts to the agreed drawings, interfaces, inspection and documentation scope.

04 / Manufacturing Process
From Robot Platform RFQ to Assembly-Ready Kits
01
Platform Interface Review
Identify shared datums, sensor axes, battery access, controller mounting and service zones.
02
DFM and Module Planning
Review bends, hardware, vents, cables, latches, weld access and assembly sequence by module.
03
Cutting and Forming
Produce repeat parts while controlling holes, slots, bend location, edges and visible surfaces.
04
Hardware and Assembly
Install fasteners, hinges, latches, gaskets and welded details using platform fixtures where needed.
05
Interface Inspection
Check sensor, controller, battery and chassis interfaces from the released datum scheme.
06
Module-Based Packout
Group parts and hardware by robot platform, module, revision and assembly station.
05 / Why It Matters
Why Robot Part Kits Need Platform-Level Control
Small changes to a chassis datum, sensor angle or battery connector can affect multiple sheet metal parts. Revision and interface control must therefore work across the complete module kit.
Sensor Alignment
Camera and lidar mounts need stable datums and controlled angles, not only general dimensional tolerance.
Service Access
Covers and trays must preserve connector, fastener and replacement clearances after assembly.
Hardware Stack
PEM fasteners, hinges, latches and gaskets change interface height and need complete inspection.
Platform Revisions
Mixed robot revisions create assembly failures even when each individual part is well made.

Why Robotics OEMs Use DRAmetal for Sheet Metal Parts
01
Beyond the chassis
Controller, sensor, battery, service and guard parts can be sourced with the main mechanical structure.
02
Interface-focused DFM
Reviews prioritize sensor axes, mounting datums, cable paths and service access.
03
Platform-based inspection
First article and fixture checks follow the robot platform and module rather than isolated parts.
04
Assembly-ready kits
Parts and hardware can arrive grouped for the OEM production station and current revision.

09 / FAQ
Robotics Sheet Metal Parts FAQ
What robot sheet metal parts can you manufacture?
Typical parts include controller enclosures, sensor brackets, battery trays, service covers, guards, mounting plates, chassis details and module-based kits.
Can you control sensor mounting datums?
Yes. The RFQ should identify the platform datum scheme, sensor axis, allowable position or angle variation and required inspection method.
Can parts be supplied with hardware and gaskets?
Yes. PEM hardware, hinges, latches, handles, gasketing and other drawing-defined components can be installed and inspected before kit packout.
Do you support prototype and repeat builds?
Yes. We can support platform prototypes, first article release and repeat production kits while maintaining drawing and module revision identity.
What is needed for a robotics RFQ?
Send 2D drawings, 3D models, platform datums, material and finish, hardware, sensor or battery interfaces, records and quantities.
