The seismic design of sheet metal customization control cabinet aims to ensure the stable operation of the equipment in a vibration environment and reduce the problems of loose electrical components and line damage caused by vibration. Its design needs to comprehensively consider factors such as structural reinforcement, application of shock-absorbing components and installation and fixing methods, and improve the overall seismic performance through systematic design.

The overall structural design of sheet metal customization control cabinet is the basis of seismic resistance. A reasonable frame structure can evenly disperse the stress caused by vibration and avoid damage caused by excessive local force. High-strength sheet metal materials are usually used to form a stable frame through bending, welding and other processes to enhance the rigidity of the cabinet. For example, a symmetrical structural design is adopted so that the force generated by vibration can be transmitted symmetrically inside the cabinet to prevent stress concentration; at the same time, reinforcing ribs or support beams are added to divide the cabinet into multiple stable small structural units. Without adding too much weight, the cabinet's anti-deformation ability is effectively improved, just like the beam-column structure in the building, providing a solid support skeleton for the entire sheet metal customization control cabinet.

The selection and installation of shock-absorbing components are the key links in seismic design. Elastic elements such as shock pads and shock absorbers are often used between the sheet metal customization control cabinet and the installation foundation. These components can absorb and buffer vibration energy and reduce the transmission of vibration to the cabinet. Shock absorbers are usually made of elastic materials such as rubber and polyurethane, with good flexibility and resilience. Products with appropriate hardness and thickness can be selected according to different vibration frequencies and intensities. Shock absorbers have more precise shock absorption performance, such as spring shock absorbers, hydraulic shock absorbers, etc., which can adjust the shock absorption effect according to actual working conditions and effectively isolate the impact of external vibration on the sheet metal customization control cabinet, just like the shock absorption system of a car, to ensure the internal stability of the vehicle when driving.

The fixing method of electrical components directly affects their stability in a vibration environment. For heavy or critical electrical components, such as transformers and circuit breakers, special fixing brackets and high-strength bolts are required for fixing, and anti-loosening measures are added, such as spring washers and anti-loosening nuts, to prevent the components from loosening or even falling off during vibration. At the same time, the electrical components should be arranged reasonably, and the components with lower center of gravity and heavier weight should be installed at the bottom of the cabinet to lower the overall center of gravity and enhance stability; for small electronic components, shock-absorbing rubber pads or shock-absorbing mounting plates can be used for fixing to reduce the impact of vibration on their performance and ensure the normal operation of the electrical system of the sheet metal customization control cabinet in a vibration environment.

The reliability of the connection components is also a part of seismic design that cannot be ignored. The line connection inside the sheet metal customization control cabinet, the connection between the cabinet door and the cabinet body, etc., all need to have sufficient strength and stability. For line connection, anti-vibration wiring terminals and cable fixing clamps are used to ensure that the line will not loosen or break during vibration; between the cabinet door and the cabinet body, in addition to the conventional hinge connection, auxiliary locking devices such as buckles and locking rods are added to further fix the cabinet door during vibration to prevent the cabinet door from opening due to vibration, protect the internal electrical components from interference from the external environment, and avoid additional noise and safety hazards caused by the shaking of the cabinet door.

The connection method between the cabinet body and the installation foundation determines its overall seismic resistance. During installation, it should be ensured that the sheet metal customization control cabinet is firmly connected to the foundation. The cabinet can be fixed to a solid ground or wall by expansion bolts, embedded parts, etc. At the same time, according to the actual use environment and vibration conditions, adjust the number and layout of fixing points to ensure that the cabinet is evenly stressed. For example, in a high-vibration environment, increase the density of fixing points to make the cabinet more closely combined with the foundation, effectively transfer the vibration energy to the basic structure, and reduce the vibration amplitude of the cabinet itself, just like the foundation of a building, providing stable support for the sheet metal customization control cabinet.

Seismic design also needs to be optimized in combination with actual use scenarios. For sheet metal customization control cabinets used in different environments such as industrial production workshops and transportation vehicles, due to differences in vibration frequency, intensity and direction, the actual vibration conditions need to be simulated during design, and the structure and shock absorption design of the sheet metal customization control cabinet are optimized and adjusted through technical means such as finite element analysis. At the same time, considering the impact of environmental factors on shock-absorbing components, such as high temperature and humid environment may cause aging of shock-absorbing materials, it is necessary to select components with corresponding protective performance, and regularly inspect and replace them to ensure that the sheet metal customization control cabinet maintains good seismic performance for a long time.

The seismic design of sheet metal customization control cabinet is a comprehensive task, which requires systematic planning and optimization from multiple levels, including structural design, application of shock-absorbing components, component fixation, connection reliability, installation method, and scene adaptation. Through reasonable design and implementation, the stability and reliability of sheet metal customization control cabinet in a vibration environment can be effectively improved, the normal operation of electrical equipment can be guaranteed, and the risk of failure caused by vibration can be reduced.
