 All right, this week's IMPI is from... Bud Industries. Is that I think our first one from Bud? They're our best buds. This is an American company that specializes in enclosures. They're really good at outdoor enclosures. And today we're featuring one of their enclosures. I think they did a really nice job on... That's a nice box. Yes, this is a nice box. So let's check this out. Okay, I'm going to have Jeff hold this up. Okay. I'm going to go to the first... Yes, sorry. I'm going to read off the part number. This is the AIO 1111 or the 11112. So that's four ones and one or two from Bud Industries. They're very similar. And it's kind of neat because I've seen enclosures that are, you know, latched outdoor enclosures. Yes, I've seen outdoor enclosures that have clear funds. Yes, but I have not yet seen an enclosure that has both. This enclosure, it's meant for, you know, wall mounting electronic projects and what's really neat about it. And I think, I think let's go back to the front because I just show this. I kind of need to... Okay, so this is the same enclosure. This is one of the biggest INFIs. So this is one door that you can open and it's clear. And then there's a second door which is latched. So open this like that. And then I can open this. I just be careful not to clonk you or me. So there's basically a window here and a window there. And then there's this plate which you can mount onto the back here to protect the inner area from the outer area. Like there's basically two sections of this enclosure. And so you can keep some parts safe and secure on the inside while having this door. Yeah, that second photo is pretty well. The second, the clear door can open up while keeping stuff on the inside safe. So why is this cool? Well, obviously, you know, usually you have a clear front if you want to have LEDs or TFTs or gauges or whatever. But with this enclosure, the door lets you open up and also like press buttons or reset it without opening up the big part of the enclosure which could get dust or water into it because both doors are gasketed and it's IP66. Okay, so let's go to number two. Yeah, so you have some measurements. Yeah, so check out the datasheet because it's really nice. They did a good job giving you all the dimensions you could possibly need. The mounting bosses, the height, the depth, like everything is quite nice. They've got it in DXF format as well as PDF. But like I'm just showing two images from the datasheet but there's a ton inside. There's mounting bosses with tons of holes for mounting internal circuitry or mechanical panels as a substrate. One of the really nice things about these enclosures and I've seen a lot of enclosures since I really stuck out at me is that the gasketing is, it's not like a bead ring. Sometimes you get O-rings or like little beads and they work okay but this is actually kind of an extruded, thick plastic rubber gasket and both doors are gasketed fully. So that's what gives it the IP66 rating which means that it is fully dust proof and it's waterproof to the extent that you can have jets coming at it and it'll be protected from water jetting. And obviously if you cut holes you'll have to waterproof those holes. I will mention that even those IP66 rated, the material it's made out of is ABS plastic and it's not UV treated. So it's not meant for outdoor in the sun exposure because it'll slowly crack the ABS plastic. You could put it outside but just make sure it's not exposed to UV light which is hard to do if it's outside because you know, outside they're sun. But if it is indoors it's going to be well protected against any sort of dust or oil or water that you might have in your factory or around your robot or around your maker project or maybe it's like a home automation center. That would be something really good to make with it. There's also some cool accessories if you want the inner plate you want to mount stuff to it you can actually get plates at the top I show the images at the bottom are the digit key part numbers and they have them in stock for a plastic plate and a metal plate that even has like drill holes in it so you can easily mount more complicated electronics or robotics components into the enclosure. And then of course the front plate it has that little insert plate I showed you it's also ABS plastic so it's really easy to machine or mill and I'll also show you the video about customization but I think like if you want to make a project that has like a big power electronics thing or monitoring thing or IoT thing and you want that raspberry pi to be safe and then you want the display and the buttons and the gauges separately available this kind of gives you the best of both worlds you don't have to pick and choose and it's in stock. Available on digit key. Here's two types again there's the 1111 and there's the 1112 I think the 1111 is 7.5 inches deep and the 1112 is 9.5 inches deep that's the depth from the wall but check the specifications to make sure as you saw it's a pretty big box but like it'll fit anything in it for sure definitely like a large display and then of course use cable glands if you want to maintain the IP66 rating for all the cables that are coming out of it. Yeah someone in the chat said the inner panel is great for mounting screens button selector switches and so on. This is exactly what it's for and I love that you can open up you don't have to expose all the delicate innards you can have a semi-protected area and then like the very delicate electronics behind it because every time you're opening that panel to reset the button or to adjust something or to turn it on or off you don't want to expose all of your wiring to whatever dust, light or oil or humidity that you've got in your house. And here's a video about it. Here's how to customize the box which is a service that Digikey and Bud offer together so contact a Digikey sales rep if you want to have like custom holes drilled in. As your design work on your great new project is wrapping up you realize that you need an enclosure. In the past when time was tight you would have to purchase a standard box and then send it out to either a local job shop or the shop in the back of your facility to have the holes and slots put in for such things as connectors, power cords, readouts or whatever else you might need. This was either expensive or pulled your employees away from other jobs that you would be doing but you really didn't have a choice because getting a custom product out of a typical enclosure manufacturer was harder than getting a bill through Congress. Today, you have a great alternative. Bud Industries has pioneered rapid turnaround for modifications to its broad line of standard enclosures. Here are the quick steps to making it happen. First, use Bud's product selector to choose the product that best matches your needs. Then, check with Bud or your local distributor to be sure it's in stock. Once you've found the right enclosure there's a drawing of required modifications to the box. Of course, CAD or 3D models are great but Bud can also work with as little as a sketch. When we have received your information we'll quickly get a quote out to you. As soon as you place your order Bud will rapidly create a detailed drawing for you to approve. Once you confirm the drawings Bud will complete your customized order in six days for the first run or five days for repeat orders. This is two to three times faster than most enclosure suppliers in the enclosure. Note that there's no premium charge for this service. It's just Bud's everyday great service.
