ATM fascias, vending bodies, parcel lockers and ticket terminals — dense cut-outs, a cosmetic front face that cannot be touched, and a design that changes every model year.
A kiosk enclosure is a cosmetic box full of holes. The front fascia carries cut-outs for a screen, a card reader, a printer, a keypad, a scanner and a cash or parcel aperture — each with a positional tolerance set by a bought-in module, not by your drawing. Body panels, doors and locker cells are then folded from 1.0 to 2.0 mm coated or stainless sheet, and the visible surface is a product feature the end customer looks at from thirty centimetres away.
Three capabilities follow. Tooling-free cut-outs, because module suppliers change footprints between generations and a die order cannot keep up: a turret punch produces repeating fixing and ventilation patterns, and a laser cuts the bespoke apertures. Positional accuracy of ±0.1 mm, so a bezel sits square against a screen without packing. And non-contact handling, because a scratch on a fascia is scrap at full value — vacuum pick-up moves the blank in the air and protective film stays on through forming.

Terminal enclosures divide into cosmetic front panels where cut-out accuracy and finish dominate, and structural bodies where four-sided folding and repetition dominate. Both sit in the same cell.
Screen, reader, printer and scanner footprints are defined by module suppliers who revise them on their own schedule. Any process that needs a dedicated die per aperture cannot follow. Turret punching for repeating fixing and ventilation patterns, plus laser cutting for bespoke apertures, means a module change is a program edit rather than a tooling order.
The front panel is the most expensive sheet metal part in the unit by the time it is coated, and it is the part a customer looks at closely. Handling damage cannot be polished out of a powder-coated or brushed fascia. Vacuum pick-up with a patented 360° rotating feeder keeps the visible face out of contact from blank to stack, with protective film retained through forming.
A locker bank is dozens of identical cells in a body that changes with every site. The cells reward automation and repetition; the body rewards changeover speed. Configuring for only one of the two is the most common mistake we see in this sector.
Fascia-led products and locker-led products pull the configuration in different directions. Most manufacturers make both, so the cell has to serve both.
Terminal enclosures usually sit inside the forming window, with two exceptions worth checking early: heavy outdoor plinths and small bezel components.

| Positional accuracy of cut-outs | — | ±0,1 mm | Repetibilidad: aprox. ±0,01–0,02 mm |
| Precisión angular | aprox. ±0,5°/m | — | Decides fascia fit against the body |
| Straightness | approx. 0.2 mm/m | — | Decides door and seal alignment |
| Surface handling | Vacuum pick-up and brush composite table — no contact with the cosmetic face | Film retained | |

Four-sided fascias, bodies, doors and locker cells in 1.0–2.0 mm with dense module cut-outs and a cosmetic visible face. Tooling-free punching plus non-contact handling is exactly the combination this sector needs.
Deep-drawn housings, extruded frame profiles, roll-formed structural members, small bezel components below the minimum four-sided forming size, and heavy plinths above 2.0 mm at full bend length.
Base plinths in heavier gauge, anchoring plates, vandal-resistant reinforcement and prototype fascias. A press brake alongside the cell handles all of these without disrupting volume work.
A continuación se presenta la evaluación de riesgos EN ISO 12100; las funciones de control relacionadas con la seguridad, como la interrupción de la cortina óptica y la parada de emergencia, se especifican para EN ISO 13849-1. Las prensas plegadoras hidráulicas que se importan a la UE se fabrican de acuerdo con EN 12622. Las máquinas comercializadas en el mercado de la UE llevan el marcado CE conforme a Directiva sobre maquinaria 2006/42/CE junto con el expediente técnico correspondiente. La gestión de la calidad cuenta con la certificación de ISO 9001, y a continuación se indican las tolerancias estructurales de las piezas mecanizadas ISO 2768. For outdoor and semi-outdoor terminals, IEC 60529 defines the IP code the enclosure is tested against, and structural elements are commonly designed to EN 1993-1-1. Both apply to your product rather than the machine — but the panel straightness and angle consistency an ingress test depends on are established at the forming stage.
En las máquinas, esto implica una valla trasera completamente cerrada, cubiertas protectoras en todas las partes móviles que sobresalen, sistemas de protección con láser que detienen el movimiento cuando se traspasa la zona protegida, protección contra sobrecarga en las punzonadoras de torreta y detección de carga desalineada mediante rejilla y regla en las dobladoras de paneles.
Fascia panels are the clearest case in sheet metal for a combined machine, because a single panel carries both repeating patterns and bespoke apertures.
| Láser de fibra | Punzonadora de torreta CNC | Combinación de punzonado y láser | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Bespoke module apertures | Lo mejor: sin necesidad de herramientas | Limited to tooling | Bien |
| Repeating fixing and vent patterns | Pierces each hole | El más rápido | El más rápido |
| Both on the same panel | Two setups or slow | Two setups | One clamping |
| Thread preparation and ribs | No | Sí | Sí |
| Positional accuracy between features | Good within one nest | ±0,1 mm | No re-clamping error |
| Superficie útil | Moderado | Moderado | aprox. 40% menos que ambos |
| Ideal para | Prototypes and short runs | Locker cells and repeat bodies | Fascias with mixed features |
| ¿Lo suministra STON? | Sí | Sí | Sí |
Where a fascia carries a screen aperture, a card reader window and a ventilation array on one panel, a combined machine removes the re-clamping between them — which is exactly where positional error between a bezel and its module normally comes from.
Las figuras a continuación describen la dirección y el mecanismo del cambio. Los resultados reales dependen de su combinación de piezas, el tamaño del lote y el horario de trabajo; los simulamos según sus propios planos antes de presentar la cotización.

|---|---|---|
| Fascia with mixed features | Two setups, re-clamping error | One clamping |
| Bezel-to-module fit | Packing and adjustment at assembly | ±0.1 mm positional accuracy |
| Cosmetic face damage | Handling at every stage | No contact, film retained |
| Locker cell repetition | Al ritmo del operador | Automatic loading and stacking |
| New module footprint | Re-nesting and re-proving | Program edit |
| Changeover between models | Cambio de herramientas y reinicio de medidores | Program recall |

La fórmula de recuperación de la inversión que utilizamos con los clientes: (mano de obra liberada anualmente + reducción de la reelaboración y los desechos + producción vendible adicional) ÷ costo del equipo instalado. Calculamos esto con tus cifras reales, en lugar de publicar una cifra general que no se ajustaría a tu planta.

Module apertures, fixing patterns and ventilation on one fascia in a single clamping — no re-clamping error between a bezel and its screen cut-out. Roughly 40% less floor space than two separate machines.

View PBS series →Founded in 2006 and headquartered in Qingdao, one hour from major export ports and the airport. Casting, heat treatment, machining, welding, assembly and inspection all happen inside our own 20,000㎡ factory. That is why a configuration change for a terminal enclosure cell does not become a six-month subcontracting problem.




Terminal rollouts are scheduled site by site, and a delayed batch of fascias delays installation crews rather than a warehouse. Response time and spare parts availability belong in the purchase decision.
