This is my very first serious project that i’m doing under MIOS platform. I’m 2 months behind schedule with this project because of healt problems. But, i’ve took time to re-think the project and now i’m please with the 3D model result. I always do everything in 3D and when i’m ready i’ll built it for real. The 3D model include all steps: mechanical, electronics and style. The software is almost 80% done and works perfectly for the controller. The rendering you see, is the last step of the whole process, it is about 1% of the work but the most spectacular for sure.
The controller enclosure is 375 mm x 242.5 mm X 18 mm
No screw visible from any place, even under. :
It has:
58 illuminated square 10mm buttons (3 colors + white when off)
I’ll try this for now: 4 parts, front plate is steel 1.5mm or 1.9mm, hi precision Laser cutting, finish is hi gloss powder paint. Side are 5 mm CNC machined. Bottom plate is 1.9 mm.
Later i’ll try aluminum for the front plate and side. ~2mm front plate. Anodized natural finish. I’ll need to have a stronger bottom base plate for structure. 18mm total thin will become more like 20mm.
