Process

Customized Aluminum 5052-H32 Clear Iridited Drive Motor Housing
Sheet Metal Fabrication for Testing Equipment & Automation Systems

Aluminum 5052-H32 is a high-strength, corrosion-resistant alloy widely used for custom enclosures in electromechanical testing, motion control, and R&D platforms. The clear iridite (chromate conversion) finish enhances both electrical grounding and environmental durability, making it ideal for drive motor housings and protective casings.

Material Selection and Design Review	Material: Aluminum 5052-H32 sheet (typically 1.5 mm to 3.0 mm thick) CAD models and technical drawings are reviewed for: Mounting patterns and access panels Structural reinforcement features EMC shielding and thermal management requirements
Laser Cutting	Flat sheet metal is precision-cut using a fiber or CO₂ laser machine Cutouts for connectors, fasteners, and ventilation are completed in a single pass
CNC Bending & Forming	The cut metal sheet is formed using CNC press brakes with precision dies Multiple bends and angles are applied to shape the housing enclosure
Hardware Insertion & Spot Welding	PEM fasteners, studs, or stand-offs are installed using hydraulic insertion presses Spot welding or tack welding is performed (if required for structural joins or subassemblies)
Deburring & Surface Preparation	All edges are deburred to eliminate sharpness and ensure safe handling Parts are chemically cleaned and prepped for conversion coating
Clear Iridite Surface Finish (Chromate Conversion Coating)	The housing undergoes a Type II clear chromate conversion process: Enhances corrosion resistance Provides electrical conductivity for grounding RoHS compliant and suitable for indoor/outdoor electronic use
Final Assembly, Inspection & Packaging	Functional features like mounting holes, cable grommets, and access covers are validated Visual inspection and optional CMM measurement ensure conformity to spec Units are packaged in protective material for delivery or kitting

FAQ

Why is 5052-H32 aluminum suitable for motor housing in testing equipment?

5052-H32 aluminum offers excellent corrosion resistance, high fatigue strength, and superior formability, making it ideal for sheet metal enclosures exposed to environmental fluctuations or repeated testing cycles. It resists cracking during bending, ensuring structural integrity for motor housings.

What is clear iridite, and why is it applied to aluminum motor housings?

Clear iridite (also known as hexavalent- or hex-free chem film) is a chemical conversion coating that enhances corrosion resistance, improves paint/adhesive adhesion, and maintains electrical conductivity. It provides protection without altering part dimensions—critical for precision sheet metal enclosures.
