Cabinet Panels & Wrappers
Large, cosmetic, thin gauge galvanized and pre painted steel. Flatness and scratch free handling matter as much as tonnage. Progressive and transfer work on straight side presses with generous bed sizes.
Electrified heating and cooling is pulling HVAC manufacturing into a capacity race. Cabinet panels, deep drawn housings, fan shrouds, mounting brackets, and drain pans all come off a press, and volumes are climbing while gauges get thinner. Sutherland covers the full HVAC part spread with gap frame and straight side mechanical presses, servo hydraulic deep draw systems, and I-PRESS® controls watching quality on every stroke.
Walk through any furnace, heat pump, or rooftop unit and count the stamped parts. The cabinet wrapper and access panels. The drawn condenser and blower housings. The fan shroud, the motor mounts, the control box, the drain pan, the brackets holding all of it together. An HVAC unit is a sheet metal product wrapped around a refrigeration circuit.
Now the demand curve is moving. Heat pump adoption, data center cooling, and efficiency standards are pushing HVAC makers to add stamping capacity and modernize lines that have run the same way for decades. The manufacturers winning that race are choosing press technology deliberately, part family by part family.
Large, cosmetic, thin gauge galvanized and pre painted steel. Flatness and scratch free handling matter as much as tonnage. Progressive and transfer work on straight side presses with generous bed sizes.
Blower housings, condenser end plates, and drain pans that draw deep without splitting or wrinkling. Servo hydraulic motion control lets you slow through the draw and dwell at bottom.
Airflow parts where form accuracy is efficiency. A shroud that springs back out of round gives away the SEER rating the engineers worked for.
High volume progressive die work in heavier gauges. Gap frame presses earn their keep here: fast, accessible, and easy to tool.
Material savings push HVAC gauges down year after year, and thin galvanized steel is unforgiving. Feed accuracy, die protection, and consistent tonnage decide whether a line runs clean or runs scrap. Every Sutherland press ships with I-PRESS® controls, with die monitors and function monitoring that catch a misfeed before it becomes a buried die and a lost shift.

Housings, Pans & Shrouds
Programmable MotionKC Automation Complete Lines
The common thread is the complete line. A cabinet panel line needs a feed that handles pre painted stock without marking it. A drain pan cell needs draw motion tuned to the material. All of it runs better when the feeder, the press, and the die protection share one control, which is exactly how I-PRESS® and our KC Automation servo coil feed lines are engineered.
Send us your panel prints, draw depths, and annual volumes. Our engineering and applications teams will size the press, the feed line, and the controls for the program, and show you the technology running at our Showroom and R&D Technology Center in Ventura, California.
From cabinet wrappers to deep drawn housings, Sutherland has the press, the feed line, and the controls to run your HVAC stamping at rate.
