Case study · Surfact · Tracker casing
Protecting electronics with a mono-material casing
IP67 by design, with no seals, glue or screws. Moulded from recycled fishing rope and net
AION · IP67 tracker casing · Surfact
THE PROBLEM
Tracker casings for cold-chain logistics are usually sealed with gaskets, glue and screws. Every extra part adds assembly time, cost and a point of failure.
THE SOLUTION
Three parts, one material
Three parts: a top, a base with lens and a battery holder. The casing reaches IP67 without gaskets, screws or metal fasteners, is designed for automated assembly, and can be repaired or recycled as a single material.
THE VALUE
67%
shorter assembly time
Three parts, no gaskets, no screws or metal fasteners
Against the previous casing, assembly takes a third of the time and production costs 45% less. There are fewer parts to make and nothing to seal or fasten.
