What We Make
A payment terminal is an assembly of structural parts. We manufacture every structural and plastic component in that assembly — from a single prototype part to a complete set ready for electronics integration.
Outer Enclosure
The main body of the terminal — injection-molded ABS or PC/ABS, designed around your display, PCB and interface layout.
Enclosure detail →Battery Cover
Snap-fit, quick-release or sliding battery door — with the latch geometry or clip structure your design requires.
Battery cover →Charging Dock
Custom cradles and charging bases machined or molded to hold and align the terminal with your connector positions.
Charging dock →Scanner Window
Clear or tinted polycarbonate windows for barcode and QR scanning — optically flat, injection-molded or CNC-machined.
Scanner window →Keypad Frame
Structural frames and button retainers for PIN pads and function keys — precise tolerances for positive key travel.
Keypad frame →Full Assembly
All structural parts manufactured and assembled into a complete mechanical shell, verified for fit before shipment.
Assembly →What this is not:
❌ We do not sell finished POS machines or branded payment terminals.
❌ We do not sell payment processing software or merchant accounts.
❌ We do not supply standard off-the-shelf electronic enclosures.
✅ We manufacture the custom structural parts and housings that go inside payment terminal devices — to your design or from a reference sample.
No CAD? Send What You Have
Most payment terminal structural work starts without a complete CAD package. That is normal here. We accept any of these as a starting point:
Our engineers measure the reference, reconstruct the structural CAD for free, and confirm every critical dimension with you before cutting any material. You approve the drawing — nothing is made until you do.
How It Works — From Sample to Finished Parts
Send the reference
Mail a sample terminal, photos, or a sketch. We confirm what information we need before you ship anything expensive.
Measure & model
We measure every structural feature using digital calipers, micrometers, and 3D scanning where needed. CAD is rebuilt for each component — free with your quote.
Confirm the drawing
You review the dimensional drawing for each part. We adjust until it matches your intent. Nothing moves to production without your sign-off.
Manufacture & assemble
CNC machining for prototypes and metal parts. Injection molding for plastic production runs. Final assembly and fit verification before shipment.
Applications — Where These Parts Are Used
Countertop and handheld terminals for retail checkout
Tableside and kitchen-counter payment devices
Outdoor pay stations and parking meter housings
Transit and venue ticket payment kiosks
Vending and self-service terminal enclosures
Payment interfaces for electric vehicle charge points
From Prototype to Production
We work across the full development cycle — from a first structural prototype through to small-batch production runs.
Prototype (1–5 pcs)
CNC-machined or vacuum-cast structural parts in days. Fast enough to verify fit and form before committing to tooling.
Prototype process →Small batch (10–500 pcs)
Injection-molded runs from aluminum tooling. Cost-effective for initial production without high-volume tooling investment.
Assembly detail →From a competitor terminal
Have a reference device and want to manufacture your own structural version? We reverse engineer the housing and reproduce all structural parts.
From sample →One supplier for all the structural parts. The common problem when building a custom payment terminal is sourcing each structural part from a different supplier — enclosure from one, battery door from another, charging dock from a third. We manufacture the full set and verify that everything fits together before it leaves.
Materials for Payment Terminal Parts
The right material depends on the part's function, environment and production volume:
ABS
Standard choice for outer enclosures and covers. Good impact resistance, easy to paint and texture. Cost-effective for injection molding.
PC / ABS Blend
Stronger and more heat-resistant than standard ABS. Common in handheld terminals that take daily drops.
Polycarbonate
Optically clear or tinted — used for scanner windows and display bezels. High impact strength.
Aluminium
6061 alloy for machined chassis, mounting rails and structural frames requiring tighter tolerances than plastic allows.

Each structural component has a dedicated page with full material options, tolerances, and design notes:
Complete Terminal Case Study
A full project walkthrough — from reference sample to finished structural assembly.
Full case study →Terminal Housing
Outer enclosure design, material selection, wall thickness and draft angle for injection molding.
Housing →Battery Cover
Snap-fit and quick-release mechanisms, clip geometry, and hinge structures.
Battery cover →Prototype Process
CNC and vacuum cast prototypes — structural verification before tooling.
Prototype →From a Sample Terminal
Reverse engineering and structural reproduction from a reference device.
From sample →Related Capabilities
Payment terminal structural work draws on several of our core manufacturing capabilities:
- Parts from a sample — any part reproduced from a physical reference, no CAD needed
- Reverse engineering — complete structural measurement and CAD reconstruction
- Vacuum casting — fast plastic prototypes in ABS-like and PC-like materials
- Order with no CAD — our standard no-drawing process explained
- Solar energy system parts — we also build structural enclosures for energy storage devices
Frequently Asked Questions
Yes — we manufacture the structural components: the outer enclosure, battery cover, charging dock, scanner window, keypad frame and any other structural or plastic part. We do not sell finished payment terminals or payment software.
No CAD files needed. Send a physical sample, a reference terminal, photos, or a hand sketch with key dimensions. We measure and model the parts for free, confirm the CAD with you, then manufacture.
Yes. Send the reference terminal or clear photos and we measure the structural parts, rebuild the CAD, and reproduce them in ABS, PC or the appropriate material. We manufacture compatible structural components — we do not copy branding or electronics.
Most common: ABS for standard enclosures and covers; PC/ABS blend for higher impact and heat resistance; Polycarbonate for clear scanner windows. We recommend the right material for each part based on your requirements.
Yes. Single prototypes through to small production runs. Prototypes and very small runs use CNC machining and vacuum casting. For batches, injection molding with aluminum tooling becomes cost-effective — we handle tooling in house.
Yes. We manufacture all the structural parts and assemble them into a complete mechanical shell, verified for fit before shipment — ready for your electronics integration.
A structural prototype for a payment terminal housing typically takes 7–15 business days from CAD confirmation, depending on complexity. Specific lead times are in your quote. Injection-molded small batches take longer due to tooling lead time.
