The forehead thermometer housing holds the sensor, display and battery in a handheld body, so the shell must be light, stiff and clean to the touch. Aluminum alloy is chosen for these covers because it machines to a thin wall and anodizes to a durable finish.
The housing is milled from 6061-T6 billet. The cavity is roughened first, the part is released and left to relax, then the window, bores and sealing faces are finished in the last setup. After deburring and cleaning, the housing is anodized in the requested colour, and each unit is checked for wall thickness and window position.
