How much quieter will the area get?

That depends on the machine, the sound frequency and how many openings the enclosure needs. Acoustic panel assemblies make a noticeable difference on most rotating and impact equipment. Share your current sound readings and we will specify the assembly against them.

Will maintenance still be able to reach the machine?

Yes, that is part of the design. We place removable panels, double doors or roll-up openings on the sides your technicians service, so routine maintenance does not turn into a disassembly project.

Does an enclosed machine need extra ventilation?

Almost always. Heat that once spread into the plant now stays in the enclosure, so we size ventilation or cooling to the equipment's heat rejection rather than to the room volume.

What drives the cost of an enclosure?

Footprint, acoustic or thermal performance, the number of access openings, ventilation, and whether the unit sits indoors or out. Your quote lists each piece so you can weigh performance against budget.

Price range: $$

Sometimes the problem isn't the office, it's the machine next to it. An equipment enclosure uses our panel system in reverse: it keeps noise, dust or heat inside instead of keeping the plant out.

We design enclosures for metals, machining, chemicals and energy operations across Greater Pittsburgh, starting with a free consultation.

Plants Here That Need Enclosures

Steel, metals and machining shops in Bridgeville, Butler and Latrobe run loud equipment across multiple shifts. An enclosure lets a nearby in-plant office or break area stay usable without moving the machine.

Chemicals and coatings plants on Neville Island and energy and natural gas services firms near Washington and Canonsburg use enclosures to keep dust off controls and to shelter outdoor electrical gear.

Those outdoor units face cold, snowy winters and humid summers, and both factor into the insulation and HVAC we specify.

How an Enclosure Contains the Process

Acoustic panels around compressors, presses, blowers and CNC machines cut sound at the source. Treating one machine usually costs less than treating a whole bay.

Conditioned enclosures do the opposite job, protecting controls, servers and test equipment from heat and airborne dust.

Access is planned around maintenance. Removable full-height panels, double doors and roll-up openings go on the sides your technicians actually use.

Exterior-rated enclosures with HVAC are available for electrical gear and utility equipment that sits outside.

Enclosure Options

We pick the assembly by what needs containing and how often it gets serviced.

Removable panels and wide doors for service access
Acoustic assemblies that reduce noise at the machine
Ventilation or cooling sized to the equipment's heat output
Tight joints to contain dust and particulate
Weather-rated versions for outdoor electrical and utility gear
Lighting, outlets and control-panel cutouts inside
Layouts that extend when a second machine joins the line

What Gets Enclosed

Compressors, presses and blowers
Servers, controls and test benches
Grinding, cutting and finishing stations
Outdoor electrical and substation gear
