Parker Chomerics at electronica 2026: EMI-shielded ventilation panels
At electronica 2026 (10-13 November, Munich, Germany), the Chomerics Division of Parker Hannifin, a world leader in motion and control technologies, will present its advanced ventilation panels with electromagnetic shielding. At stand B3.457, Parker Chomerics will demonstrate how its stainless steel honeycomb technology lets electronic enclosures deliver effective electromagnetic shielding while maximising airflow for efficient thermal management.
The high-density data centre challengeThe rapid expansion of data centres and high power density electronic systems makes heat management inside equipment enclosures increasingly complex. On top of that, sensitive electronic devices must be protected from electromagnetic interference (EMI), which can degrade system performance.
Stainless steel honeycomb ventilation panelsParker Chomerics’ stainless steel honeycomb ventilation panels address both needs: they provide airflow of up to 96% and deliver highly effective electromagnetic shielding.

Other advantages of the stainless steel ventilation panels include noise attenuation, corrosion protection and fire resistance. Parker Chomerics engineering teams work closely with customers to develop tailored solutions based on their specific application requirements. Solutions can be fully customised in terms of size, shape, material, frame, gaskets and plating. Thanks to advanced manufacturing technologies, the company supplies high-quality ventilation panels at a competitive price, combining high production volumes with dimensional precision.
Automated optical inspection allows the work to be monitored in real time and defects to be detected early, while automated laser welding ensures precise, repeatable joints with minimal thermal distortion. This strengthens structural integrity and achieves uniform electromagnetic shielding. Data-driven quality control is applied throughout the production process: statistical process control and traceability ensure consistent, repeatable performance. The process maintains a capability level with Cp and Cpk values above 1.67, commonly recognised as “excellent”.
Parker Chomerics supports customers who need fast development and production: prototypes of the stainless steel ventilation panels are available in one week and production lead times are just two to four weeks.
Statement from Keith McDonald“Parker Chomerics helps its customers tackle the challenges of electromagnetic protection and thermal management without compromising airflow, quality or production speed,” said Keith McDonald, International Director of Sales at Parker Hannifin. “Our stainless steel honeycomb ventilation panels are a highly engineered, customisable solution that ensures reliable enclosure performance and lets customers move efficiently from prototype to production.”
