None of the 2015- control system components have grounded frames or other metal elements. (Unless you still have an Axis 206 camera.)
That said, I agree that steel is too heavy for an electrical board. I personally recommend 1/4" polycarbonate. It's light for its size, thick enough so it doesn't flex, and strong enough to add a degree of rigidity to your frame when mounted properly. (And clear so it can give your robot a cool factor!)
