Balford manufactures deep-drawn and machined metal sensor housings in stainless steel, aluminum and carbon steel for automotive, HVAC and industrial sensors.
Sensor housings protect sensing elements while maintaining dimensional accuracy for press-fit, weld or threaded assembly. Balford produces deep-drawn and stamped sensor housings with controlled burr, surface and concentricity.
Real projects from Balford's production history:
Stainless steel, aluminum and carbon steel are typical. The choice depends on the sensing environment, corrosion resistance, weight and assembly method.
Yes — deep drawing produces seamless, thin-wall sensor housings with good dimensional repeatability, ideal for pressure and temperature sensors.
Through tooling design, in-process gauging and final inspection reports. FAI and PPAP documentation are available on request.
A 2D drawing (PDF) or 3D model (STEP/IGES) with material, tolerance and volume information is enough to start a DFM review.
