Tough Lightweight Cases - Amazon Cases

Designed to meet applications in defence, marine, security, aerospace, oil and gas, satellite and telecommunication markets. Amazon are tough, lightweight rotomoulded cases for extreme conditions in desert, field, sea and air. Accredited to MIL-STD-810F and rated IP65. Amazon Cases provide the ultimate protection for your equipment, wherever you are.

Ruggedised Amazon Cases are produced using a process called rotomoulding. It’s ideal for making tough, waterproof products, using a high-quality polyethylene polymer that thickens at the edges and corners for extra strength and impact resistance. Amazon cases have been designed to offer exceptional strength to weight and are suitable for military, offshore or other applications where delicate or valuable equipment needs to be transported or stored safely.

Tough Lightweight 19" Rackmounts - Amazon Racks

A lightweight high tensile aluminium frame, suspended by elastomeric anti-vibration mounts, provides superior ‘sway-space’ between the frame and the outer container and is the best possible way to safeguard delicate equipment. More robust and stainless-steel variants are custom-made for heavy payloads and corrosive environments.

The Amazon 19" Racks are highly resistant to impact and drop/shock, temperature extremes and vibration, as well as water and dust ingress. And can be modified to include features such as flame retardant, anti-static and low infrared reflectivity.

All Amazon 19″ Racks have a user-adjustable inner rack chassis that can be positioned 25mm forward or back from its central position to allow the accommodation of varying front panel and rear wiring needs.

Rackmount Collar AC Unit Features - COOL COLLAR

The COOL-COLLAR™ for 19" Racks is a rack mount cooling product which creates an airtight and waterproof seal to allow the AC unit to function in extreme conditions. Where a greater cooling requirement is needed, two COOL-COLLARs with AC units can be fitted to both the front and rear of the rack.

Thermoelectric Air Conditioning units are available up to 700W which can be fitted to 12U racks and COOL-COLLARs. Thermoelectric Air Conditioners are based on the Peltier effect and have no moving parts, except for axial fans. There is no mixture between cooled air within the rack and external ambient air. Depending on the total weight of the payload, the rack mount cooling (COOL-COLLAR™) extension can be tilted and wheeled as a complete unit.

The maximum depth of equipment that can be fitted in a 610mm rack (when not in the lowest position) is 750mm. The COOL-COLLAR™ can also be attached to a rack without an AC unit installed, to extend the maximum depth that can be used to 800mm.

Lightweight Racks - ERACK

Now in our third generation, the ERack is a lightweight, 19" ruggedised aluminium electronic transit rack, specifically designed for commercial and military applications when protection against physical, climatic and electromagnetic hazards are required, and where weight, strength and portability are critical issues.

ERack benefits from patented new technology. The external container has an innovative folded rim design, which eliminates the edge extrusion and makes the case stronger, lighter and more resistant to ingress by water and dust. The internal chassis frame is supported by special mounts which protect against shock. ERack is up to 30% lighter than other rack cases in its class.

Lightweight Portable Cases - SatRack

The 19" SatRack represents a leap forward in 19" portable rack design that allows high levels of protection for the transportation of 19" equipment as checked airline luggage. This novel design rack case is available in standard sizes of 3U, 4U and 5U versions with a 480 or 610mm deep, lightweight welded aluminium frame, which is fully compatible with UK or US 19-inch rack-mountable equipment.

Specially designed for satellite uplinks and other applications where 19-inch electronic equipment needs to be transported and deployed without damage. This ultra-light 19" SatRack weighs just 8Kg for the 4U version and allows secure transportation of mobile electronics systems as checked baggage whilst providing high levels of protection from shock and vibration.

Conforms to IATA guidelines for checked-in baggage.

Foam Protection - Foam Inserts

Foam inserts are an essential part of protective packaging, surrounding and supporting the product itself. The selection of appropriate foam types and densities is critical in ensuring the safety of a case contents. Our capabilities to design, develop and manufacture the most effective foam support or pack for each individual application involves processes such as punching, stamping, CNC routing, hand-forming and sculpturing.

Foam inserts and protection are used with the whole range of protective cases we market and the different uses are boundless; from weapons cases and camera cases to medical drawer cases and instruments. We apply the client requirement first and the resulting protective case or bag, see our rugged textiles, is the ideal solution.

Our many years of experience are brought to bear when advising customers on equipment support, layout and requisite attenuation against shock, impact and vibration.

19" Rackmount Chassis

Our 19" Racks suit a host of markets and applications and are available as standard up to 18U, and where required can also be designed for custom made enclosures. Lightweight, strong and impact-resistant they allow our clients to have fully deployable and operational equipment on demand – our 19" Racks meet the various and extreme demands of transportation in the most extreme environments meaning safe storage and protection of fragile electronic equipment.

Tool Control Foam Shadowboards

Tool control is a measure of ensuring safety, efficiency, improved productivity and savings within the factory or workplace environment, especially in the aerospace and automotive fields. With a simple and highly effective method of instantly seeing that all of the required tools for the required job are in place, work can begin in the knowledge that the job or shift should be free of any tooling issues.

The benefits of having properly organised tool storage and control include -­

• rapid tool location for instant use
• protection of expensive kit
• prevention of tools sliding around during transit
• avoids loss or theft of tools
• easy to see if tools are not replaced
• safety and peace of mind as tools will not be left within aircraft/vehicles/machine

Polyformes are able to print full identification numbers, instructions and images, in colour, on the foam trays. This not only enhances product but makes for a fail-safe utilisation of tooling per requirement.

Aluminium Containers including Fly Away Packs

Aluminium alloy cases are ideal for transportation by air owing to their very light weight and excellent stacking facility. Standard Fly Away packs are used by the Armed Forces for general kit deployment. Bespoke containers can be made special to content with or without foam supports and cushioning.
