MILEX rackmount cases are built from high-strength aluminum and designed for defense applications requiring rigid structure, dimensional stability, and precise rack alignment. This platform supports the secure transport of rack-mounted electronics in environments where predictable mechanical behavior and controlled handling are anticipated.
Mission-Ready Rackmount Transport Case Systems
Engineered Protection for Defense Systems
and Deployed Electronics
DESAPRO designs and manufactures mission-ready rackmount transport case systems for defense, aerospace, and high-reliability industrial programs.
Our rackmount platforms, MILEX™, COMEX™, and ROTEX™ rackmount cases are engineered to protect electronic systems, servers, and C5ISR equipment throughout their lifecycle, from integration and qualification to transport, field deployment, and sustainment.
Each platform delivers a distinct protection strategy, allowing program teams to align material, weight, shock behavior, and logistics performance with mission requirements.
MILEX — Aluminum Rackmount Transit Cases
Structural aluminum protection for controlled logistics and repeatable deployment
Design & Protection Features
- Rigid aluminum construction for structural stability and alignment
- Designed for standard 19-inch rackmount equipment
- Shock and vibration protection via foam or isolation systems
- Integrated handles, latches, and mounting options
- Available in custom sizes and configurations without molded limitations
MILEX is well suited for programs where rack alignment, stiffness, and repeatable transport conditions are critical to system performance.
COMEX — Composite GMT Rackmount Cases
Lightweight composite protection for mobile and weight-sensitive deployments
COMEX rackmount cases use glass-mat reinforced thermoplastic (GMT) composite construction, delivering a strong yet lightweight alternative to aluminum. This platform is suitable for applications where weight reduction, corrosion resistance, and vibration damping are key design parameters.
Design & Protection Features
- GMT composite panels for reduced weight and high stiffness
- Improved vibration damping compared to metal enclosures
- Corrosion and moistureresistant materials
- Standard 19-inch rackmount compatibility
- Custom rack depths and configurations available
COMEX is ideal when mobility, weight constraints, and environmental exposure must be balanced without sacrificing rack integrity.
ROTEX — Durable Rotomold Deployment Solutions
Optimized for stacking, impact resistance, and high-abuse logistics environments
DESAPRO ROTEX rackmount cases complete the rackmount portfolio for defense applications where impact resistance, environmental durability, and logistics efficiency dominate system requirements.
Manufactured as a solid, uniform rotationally molded polyethylene structure, ROTEX rackmount cases eliminate seams and stress points while providing exceptional resistance to impact, vibration, moisture, and environmental exposure. The UV-resistant polymer is engineered to withstand extreme temperatures and prolonged solar load, making these cases well suited for outdoor storage, forward deployment, and repeated transport cycles.
Design & Protection Features
- Meets applicable MIL-STD-810G, STANAG 4280, and DEF-STAN 81-41 performance levels
- IP67 watertight protection for transport, storage, and field deployment
- Monolithic polymer enclosure that absorbs and dissipates impact energy
- Integrated shock-mounted 19-inch aluminum rack frames
- Pressure management via breather or mechanical relief valve options available
Stacking & Logistics Performance
A patented stacking system enables secure straight or cross stacking of various or same-sized cases, significantly improving pallet utilization, transport efficiency, and storage density. Integrated lid gridlines support pallet strapping and enhance load stability during stacked transport, making stacking performance a defining advantage of ROTEX rackmount cases.
ROTEX rackmount cases are widely used for mobile servers, communications systems, radar electronics, and frontline IT infrastructure, where durability through repeated handling is essential.
