What does MSTFAB manufacture?

MSTFAB is the international brand of Guangzhou Maisituo Sheet Metal Manufacturing Co., Ltd. It makes drawing-defined sheet metal parts and empty mechanical enclosure shells for OEM buyers, using laser cutting, CNC bending, welding and mechanical assembly. Surface treatments such as powder coating may be coordinated with external partners depending on the order.

Which materials does MSTFAB work with?

Common options include carbon steel, galvanized steel, stainless steel and aluminum. Grade, thickness, dimensions, critical tolerances, hardware, finish and inspection criteria are specified per project on the approved drawing.

What are the MOQ and lead time for custom sheet metal parts?

There is no single MOQ or lead time that applies to every part. MOQ, price, achievable tolerances, lead time, finishing route and inspection deliverables are confirmed in the project quotation and purchase order after the drawing is reviewed.

Does MSTFAB supply electrical components or certified finished equipment?

No. The normal supply scope is fabricated metalwork and empty mechanical housings. Electrical components, wiring, software, system integration and final equipment certification remain with the buyer unless a written quotation or contract explicitly includes them.

How do I request a quote?

Send STEP, STP, DXF, DWG or PDF files with the drawing revision, material and thickness, quantity, critical dimensions, hardware, finish, inspection needs and delivery destination through the RFQ page at https://mstfab.com/contact/.

Sheet Metal Enclosure Tolerance Guide: ISO 2768-m Assembly Fits | MSTFAB

⚡ Direct Answer: What Tolerances Are Standard for Sheet Metal Enclosures?

Standard sheet metal enclosure tolerance guidelines conform to ISO 2768-m (medium) for linear dimensions (±0.2 mmmm up to 400mm, ±0.3 mmmm up to 1000mm) and ±0.5° for CNC brake bend angles. In enclosure assembly, critical quality metrics include diagonal squareness difference (≤ 1.5mm across a 2-meter cabinet), door-to-frame reveal gap consistency (2.0 mm ±0.5 mm), and PEM fastener center-to-center true position within ±0.15 mmmm.

Sheet Metal Enclosure Tolerance Acceptance Standards

Tolerance Characteristic	ISO 2768-m Standard Value	MSTFAB Enclosure Assembly Limit
Overall Cabinet Dimensions	±0.3 mmmm to ±0.5 mmmm	±0.3 mmmm maintained across heights up to 2200mm.
Diagonal Squareness (Δ D₁ – D₂)	≤ 2.0mm difference	≤ 1.0mm difference verified on 3D inspection tables.
Door Reveal Gap Uniformity	2.0mm to 3.0mm nominal	Uniform 2.0mm gap (±0.4 mmmm variation around entire perimeter).
Internal Sub-Panel Flatness	≤ 1.5mm per meter	≤ 0.8mm per meter ensuring flush DIN rail and PLC alignment.

Frequently Asked Questions on Enclosure Tolerances

How do you prevent door binding and latch misalignment on tall 2-meter cabinets?

We construct the frame on 3D Demmeler welding tables to lock squareness within ±0.5 mmmm, utilize laser-cut alignment tab notches, and specify 3-point cam locking linkages with adjustable roller guides that pull the door smoothly against the PU gasket regardless of floor unevenness.
