High-quality enclosures for wheeled vehicles from ROLEC

Wheeled vehicles are an essential component of modern military technology and offer a wide range of advantages, including high mobility, flexibility and adaptability to different operational scenarios.

Significance and areas of application
Wheeled vehicles are used in various military fields, including:

  • Transport vehicles: These vehicles are designed to transport troops and equipment.
  • Armoured wheeled vehicles: These vehicles provide protection and mobility for infantry units.
  • Reconnaissance vehicles: These vehicles are used for reconnaissance missions and offer high off-road capability.
  • Special-purpose vehicles: These vehicles are designed for specific tasks such as mine clearance and patrols.

Advanced solutions for every application – ROLEC enclosures for defence technology

The requirements for electronic enclosures used in military defence technology are diverse and must meet high standards for both outdoor and indoor applications. ROLEC offers high-quality enclosures for military applications, which are customised mechanically to specifications in accordance with the highest military standards. 

Show more

ROLEC provides solutions for these military requirements:

  • Robustness and durability: Enclosures must withstand extreme conditions, including impact, vibration, and mechanical stress.
  • Corrosion resistance: Especially for outdoor applications, a high level of resistance to corrosion caused by salt water and other environmental influences is required.
  • Temperature resistance: Enclosures must remain functional across a wide temperature range, from extreme cold to high heat.

Specific requirements for indoor and outdoor applications

  • Weather resistance: Enclosures must be protected against rain, snow, dust, and UV radiation.
  • Seawater-resistant coating: For maritime applications, a special coating is required that is resistant to salt water.
  • EMC shielding: Protection against electromagnetic interference is essential to ensure the reliable function of the electronics.
  • Space-saving design: Enclosures should be compact and easy to integrate in order to fit into confined spaces.
  • Easy maintenance: Enclosures must be easily accessible to simplify maintenance work and repairs.
  • Safety standards: Compliance with safety standards such as UL 94 V-0 for fire protection and IP protection ratings for dust and water resistance.

Technological features

  • Modular design: Enclosures should have a modular structure so that different components can be integrated easily.
  • Choice of materials: Use of high-strength materials such as glass-fibre-reinforced polyester or aluminium, which are both lightweight and robust.
  • Coating and painting: Highly weather-resistant powder coatings and camouflage coatings that are also effective in the infrared range.

Reliable enclosure solutions for military wheeled vehicles – precise, robust and reliable

Wheeled vehicles used in defence technology are subject to specific requirements in terms of technology, materials and protection. Electronic components must operate reliably regardless of weather conditions, terrain or temperature. ROLEC develops and supplies specialised enclosures that are precisely tailored to these operating conditions – modified to the highest military standards and custom-manufactured to customer specifications.

High-quality coating and camouflage effect according to German Armed Forces standards

For demanding outdoor conditions, ROLEC uses highly weather-resistant powder coatings (F9) with WIWeB approvals. The premium polyester powder 5936 is available in military-relevant colours such as RAL 6031-F9 bronze green, RAL 1039-F9 sand beige, RAL 8027-F9 leather brown, and RAL 9021-F9 tar black. The coatings provide reliable camouflage properties in the visible and near-infrared range, which is particularly important for modern wheeled vehicles. Depending on the requirements, they are available as powder coatings or wet paint finishes and meet the specifications of the defence equipment standard VG 95211.

Individual machining and assembly

Our enclosures are machined precisely according to customer drawings by drilling, milling, engraving, or laser processing. We also implement EMC shielding and the bonding of display windows with precision. This is complemented by the assembly of EMC cable glands, terminals, or customised accessories.

Surface finishing for additional protection

Our extended services include screen printing, digital printing, chemical nickel plating, tin plating, and SurTec 650 coating – for optimum functionality and identification in the field.

Safe, resistant, and easy to maintain

Our enclosure solutions are characterised by exceptional resistance to mechanical stress, vibration, and a wide range of environmental influences such as rain, snow, dust, and UV radiation. They also offer high corrosion resistance when exposed to salt water and remain reliably operational even at extreme temperatures. The enclosures meet important safety standards such as UL 94 V-0 and offer protection ratings according to IP certifications. Despite their compact design, they are modular in structure and easy to maintain, making them ideal for confined installation spaces in vehicles.
