Creating your best case scenario.™
What it is about the Ovation brand that sets the standard for your protective case solution?
A manufacturing facility that produces premium portable cases should be equipped with the most sophisticated technology paired with high-quality materials used to fabricate and compliment the reputation the Ovation Case brand carries and our clients deserve.
DESIGNit
A strong design ethic requires a powerful 3D CAD software programme that Design
Quintessence has heavily invested in since starting our manufacturing facility in 2014.
SolidWorks is one of the world’s leading 3D Design and Manufacturing CAD platforms allowing our in-house designers to conceptualise innovative solutions that simply work for you.
DQ is constantly striving to improve our CAD methodology. We also continuously review how the latest developments in CAD software can assist us in refining the design process even further.
CREATEit
Our Sydney-based manufacturing facilities invest in the latest and most sophisticated technological manufacturing tools and equipment to deliver you premium quality in-house case builds.
We want to ensure our staff are well-equipped with the most advanced technology and equipment to aid in producing the best protective solution for your valuable equipment.
PROTECTit
From design to delivery, our experienced logistical staff will use the most appropriate delivery method to get your order to you safely and securely.
HARDWARE AND MATERIALS
Road cases are typically constructed from various components that work together to provide durability, protection and functionality. A well-built flight case should provide you with long-lasting equipment protection, so we have sourced a globally respected brand from Germany to supply most of our road case hardware.
Adam Hall is a pioneer of case components with over 40 years of experience producing high-quality, robust case fittings.
PLYWOOD CONSTRUCTION
We source laminated Birch Plywood from Scandinavia and the Baltic States, recognised as the best in the
world.
The Scandinavian Birch ply comprises dense layers laminated with high-performance and DIN-certified
(DIN EN 204) “D4” grade glue. It is double-laminated with a durable ABS plastic laminate on the
underside.
The plywood has optimum density with maximum stability and moisture resistance while the outer laminate
provides great resistance to damage and good camouflage of scratches and abrasions.
Below are just a handful of case elements we are proud to provide you with every case build:
ALUMINIUM EDGE EXTRUSION
Tapering from 1.5mm thick at the edge up to a very solid 3mm thickness at the bend, the extrusion is up to double the thickness of angle used on other case brands. A cleverly designed recessed channel also provides added protection of rivets.
LID STAYS
We choose heavy-duty combined lid stay with hinges as our standard lid stay solution on all our cases. In addition, many feature a locking, click-stop function. This component is a much stronger, damage resistant model than the lid stays commonly used on other cases.
BUTTERFLY LATCHES
We use a handful of different-sized heavy-duty butterfly latches from the Adam Hall range, all with added rivet protection. There are options for latches with padlock loops on integrated locks.
RIVETS
A rivet is a rivet right? Well, yes and no. We use premium quality Italian-made rivets that expand within the plywood if we need to keep rivet penetration flush on the inside of the case. You might not notice this but, we certainly do!
BALL CORNERS
Solid 2mm thick, galvanised steel ball corners with 9 rivet holes, compared to the industry standard of 6, to provide a more secure mechanical bond between ALL case elements on Ovation Cases.
CASTOR BACKING PLATES
The standard method of mounting castors to a case is inserting T-nuts into the base and bolting castors to them. A better solution is the steel backing plates. Our castor backing plates increase impact and pull-through resistance enormously.
CASTORS
Premium cases need premium castors. We use high-quality 4” castors from premium brands such as Adam Hall and Tente from Germany.
YOUR OWN BRANDING
Be recognised and stay organised.
All Ovation cases are supplied with an Adam Hall tour label dish designed to house 178x127mm case labels.
We are able to provide custom branded tour labels to suit, along with full custom logo engraving on the case ply to create a bold, professional image of your business.
