ATA Cases for Lab and Research Equipment
After decades of working with organizations like Oak Ridge National Labs, Y-12, and other research oriented companies, we understand how to protect expensive laboratory and research equipment. Air Transport Association (ATA) cases from Vol Case & Container provide a robust solution for enhancing asset safety during transportation.
Whether moving instruments between labs, shipping to field locations or transporting to conferences, we have an ATA case to suit your needs. Our ASTM- and ISPM-15-certified solutions help keep your equipment functional and calibrated.
Quality ATA Cases for Lab Equipment
Lab and research equipment is often susceptible to impact, vibration and environmental factors. We custom-design your cases to mitigate these risks with the following:
- Vibration dampening: Custom-cut foam inserts hold instruments snugly, absorbing shocks and vibrations.
- Impact resistance: Constructed with wood or plastic siding and reinforced with durable metal edging, these cases provide incredible strength and impact resistance, safeguarding contents from drops and collisions.
- Environmental shielding: ATA cases provide protection from weather, dust and other environmental conditions. They are critical for equipment used in fieldwork or stored in variable conditions.
Other examples of the customization options we provide include:
- Recessed hardware: To meet ATA specifications, we recess case hardware, like latches, into the exterior to allow cases to pack tighter and prevent snagging on other items.
- Trays and shelves: These internal features enable you to organize and secure the contents of your case.
- Ball corners: These components reinforce the case’s exterior structure by protecting the corners from impact.
