The electrical enclosures market was valued at USD 5.80 billion in 2020 and is expected to reach $9.49 billion by 2026, at a CAGR of 8.57 percent over the forecast period (2021-2026). The growth in the design and production of electronic devices directly influences the demand for high-quality enclosures. Current design trends in the last few years have made electronics design affordable, even for small players with low-volume productions.
The need for enclosures stems from manufacturers of electronic products in the consumer, industrial, medical, and automobile industries. Affordable design software, production technologies of PCB circuits, and embedded firmware have resulted in numerous players entering the market. With close to 10 years of solid experience in Electronics Design, Probots is one of the top electronics design companies based out of Bangalore, providing a wide array of embedded engineering services.
Large manufacturers always dominated enclosure design and production; however, the high investments to launch a new product, low ROI, and long design/production lead times meant only a few products were launched by these manufacturers, which did not fulfil customers' requirements. Probots realized this early, and their core strategy is to offer specialized enclosures for individual applications by manufacturing each enclosure in different sizes, colours, and materials.
High costs also made enclosures out of reach for regular electronics manufacturers but Probots is working towards making enclosures affordable, even for the smallest customer, by investing in the latest design tools, production machines, processes, and more.
Another significant issue is the long lead times for ordering enclosures, and customer prefers to buy enclosures from manufacturers that offer quick lead times for both prototype and production quantities. Probots stocks most of the enclosures in its warehouse in Bangalore, and customers can order online and get products delivered the next working day. “We are continuously investing and discovering new ideas to deliver these enclosures faster and cost-effectively to our customers", speaks Yashwant B. S., Chief Engineer, Probots.
