Elma has expanded its CompactPCI packaging support with a new range of PMC bezels, gaskets and fillers in a range of standard finishes, backed by a full customisation service.

The new bezels are available in aluminium or zinc, and the snap-in shielded filler panels are stainless steel.

Standard parts are available ex-stock, and custom machining or silk-screening are typically available in 3 weeks, offering a fast and easy route to mezzanine card hardware development.

These PMC bezels comply with the latest IEEE P1386 standards, and are stocked in industry-standard 10mm mounting tab height.

The bezels are available either in extruded aluminium with 240 grit graining and a clear alodine finish, or in die-cast zinc with a zinc finish.

Both types are supported by flexible silkscreen and CNC machining to produce custom markings and cutouts even in prototype quantities.

In addition to the shielded stainless-steel filler panels, Elma also offers gaskets in both wire-spring stainless steel and elastomer form to suit either the extruded aluminium and cast zinc bezels.

These new bezels complement the recently launched "Front panel express" service for customised front panels for cPCI and other formats.
