Applications › Replacement & Legacy Parts
A housing or bezel is the part most likely to crack and least likely to be stocked. We reverse engineer it from your sample, rebuild it in a material suited to the use, and if the original carried legends or a logo we print those in the same shop, so the part arrives finished. Display windows, snap features and screw bosses are modeled to fit the original mating parts.
Typical examples
- Controller and instrument housings
- Display bezels and surrounds
- Equipment covers and access panels
- Handheld device shells
- Enclosure lids with printed graphics
Materials, process and quantities
