Sheet Metal Splash Guard..pics Added

spize909 · 11-05-2009, 04:24 PM

I had my sheet metal contractor fab me a splash guard for my new intake set-up (I don't think I'll ever use it).
Anyway it was quick and easy and I 'm pretty sure I could get him to fab up some more for a very reasonable price. What I was thinking is just having him crank out the enclosure without hole(s). That way they could be custom fitted to each application, i.e. filter, intake, mount, etc.
I will post a picture later so you can see what I'm talking about.

I'd just be looking for cost of shipping, fab and a couple bucks for my time....maybe trades?

Pics!

Pics for sure!

spize909 · 11-05-2009, 08:06 PM

Here's the pics. This one is just a tad too tight on the sides but it will work. I'm going to take 1/4" off on the next one. They are spot welded and the raw edges are hemmed.
It's not mounted just stuffed in there for the pics.
Measures 7.25" wide by 7.5 tall by 7.5" long (deep). The straight at the top goes back 3.5" then angles down.
I am also going to see about having him make it at about 100 degree angle from face to bottom instead of 90 so it will slope to drain, though you could also slightl slope it on install.....
I got a really good deal on that filter so don't bag on the way it looks.

And here's a shot of the mount I made for my FCI.....somewhat inspired by LTZ guy's

mount but I like mine just a little better

nobody interested?

allen44 · 11-08-2009, 11:55 AM

I am, but how much would it cost?

spize909 · 11-08-2009, 02:18 PM

not sure, but I will find out tomorrow.
I would say no more the 30 shipped, maybe alot less if he just makes a few for free..........
just to be clear I am just talking about the box with no holes. That'd be up to your and your application.

A press brake, also known as plate bending machine, is a kind of machine tool for bending sheet and plate material, most commonly sheet metal, material could be normal steel, stainless steel, aluminum and so on. Regularly, two C-frames form the sides of the press brake, connected to a table at the bottom and on a moveable slide at the top. The bottom tool is mounted on the table with the top tool mounted on the upper beam.

A Press brake could be described and distinguished by basic specifications, such as the force or tonnage and the working length (length of plate sheet). Additional parameters include the amplitude or stroke, the distance between the frame uprights or side housings, distance to the back gauge, and work height. The upper slide usually operates at a speed ranging from 1 to 15 mm/sec.

There are many different types of press brake as described by the means of applying force: mechanical, pneumatic, hydraulic, and servo-electric. Hydraulic press brake operates by means of two synchronized hydraulic cylinders on the C-frames moving the upper slide. Servo-electric brakes use a servo-motor to drive a ball screw to exert tonnage on the ram.

SUZOU DAFU MACHINE TOOLS CO.,LTD., is a professional manufacturer of hydraulic press brake and servo-electric press brake. Established in 2003, Suzhou Dafu Machine tools have been engaged indesigning, building and selling hydraulic press brake, CNC hydraulic press brake, guillotines shear and CNC guillotine shear for many years. Thanks to full attention upon press brake and guillotine shear building, and the great investment in metal processing equipments. Dafu had made agood start in the industry of press brake and guillotine shear after our products hit market.
In 2007, due to reliable quality of press brake and guillotine shear we built and sold, Dafu had gained remarkable reputation in Chinese market and Dafu’s share in the market had been kept increasing year by year, at the same period, Dafu started to pay more attention upon oversea market and seek sales increase from global market. In order to pursue quality of machines and service, our boss decided to expand production capacity, and extended workshop buildings 15,000 square meters more, plus original 15,000 square meters workshop, totally 30,000 square meters in total.
