One example provides a method of manufacturing. The method comprises oxidizing, using plasma, a first surface of a substrate comprising a metal-material. The method further comprises cutting into the substrate through the oxidized first surface to expose a non-oxidized second surface of the substrate, the second surface not parallel to the first surface. The method further comprises disposing, using electrophoretic deposition, a coating layer over the exposed second surface to form an article having the oxidized first surface and the coated second surface.

A device for integrating a monitor in a case comprises a support element made from plastic material and having a recess which corresponds to a predetermined visible area of the monitor. The support element includes a plurality of apertures which are arranged at a predetermined distribution outside the recess for passing through positioning and/or retaining elements and placing the support element at a predetermined position on a sheet-metal case in which the support element can be received, and a frame section which projects from a base area of the support element on a rear side thereof and is arranged in sandwich design for receiving components of the monitor. The components of the monitor received in the frame section are adapted to be fixed to the support element, and the support element is adapted to be fixed to the at least one of positioning or retaining elements on the sheet-metal case.

Enclosures with grommetless strain relief are provided, each including a base and a cover. The base has a bottom and four sidewalls arranged to provide an open box-like structure. A first of the sidewalls of the base is configured with a wire routing slot at its perimeter. The cover has a top and four sidewalls arranged to provide an open box-like structure configured to couple with the base, so as to provide a strain relief for an electrical wire passing through the wire routing slot. The wire is pressed against a length of the first sidewall of the base by a first sidewall of the cover. The enclosure may include other features, such as rounded edges in the wire routing path, a wire guide and/or strap to inhibit wire movement between the first sidewalls, and/or one or more locking mechanisms configured to secure the cover to the base.

A sheet metal housing for an electronic controlling unit of a car is fixable in a holding element of the car. The housing has a first housing edge and a second housing edge arranged at opposite sides of the housing. First and second mounting elements are arranged at the first and second housing edges, respectively. The first and second mounting elements each comprise a first, a second and a third contact face for contacting the holding element to fix the housing in the holding element. The first contact face being arranged at a lower side, the second contact face being arranged at an outer side, and the third contact face being arranged at an upper side.
