In the manufacturing of kitchen equipment, particularly sinks, in addition to considerations for durability and hygiene, controlling manufacturing costs is also an important issue. In the selection of materials, there are cases where excessive surface finish grades are driving up costs. Our proposal to change the material to SUS430KD will contribute to cost reduction in sink manufacturing. 【Usage Scenarios】 - Manufacturing of sink bodies and frames - Products intended for painting 【Effects of Implementation】 - Cost reduction due to lower material unit prices - Maintenance of painting quality due to improved paint adhesion

In the architectural hardware industry, particularly in the manufacturing of ventilation hoods, the selection of materials significantly impacts quality and cost. In cases where enclosures and frames are designed for painting, excessive surface finish grades can drive up costs. SUS430KD has a slightly rougher surface finish compared to SUS430, which enhances paint adhesion, while also being more cost-effective. This allows for cost reduction without significantly altering the quality of the material itself. We propose a material change to SUS430KD, which is more suitable for painted surfaces, in the manufacturing of ventilation hoods. 【Application Scenarios】 - Enclosures and frames of ventilation hoods - Architectural hardware components intended for painting 【Benefits of Implementation】 - Cost reduction through lower material unit prices - Maintenance and improvement of painting quality due to enhanced paint adhesion - Suppression of excessive quality

In the medical device industry, high quality and reliability are required for exterior panels. In particular, for exterior panels that protect the equipment and contribute to its design, the adhesion and durability of the paint are emphasized. On the other hand, excessive surface finish grades can lead to increased costs. Our proposed SUS430KD has a slightly rougher surface finish compared to SUS430, which improves paint adhesion while being cost-effective. This allows for maintaining quality while achieving cost reductions in the exterior panels of medical devices. 【Usage Scenarios】 - Exterior panels of medical devices - Enclosures or frames intended for painting 【Benefits of Implementation】 - Cost reduction through lower material costs - Improved paint adhesion as a base for painting

In the food processing industry, conveyor components require hygiene management and durability, while controlling manufacturing costs is also an important challenge. Particularly for parts intended for painting, the finishing grade of the material surface may be of excessive quality, potentially driving up costs. Our proposal to change the material to SUS430KD achieves cost reduction without significantly altering the quality of the material itself. By switching to SUS430KD, which is suitable as a paint base, it is possible to maintain the performance of conveyor components while enjoying economic benefits. 【Usage Scenarios】 - Conveyor frames for food processing lines - Housings for conveying equipment - Other metal parts to be painted 【Benefits of Implementation】 - Cost reduction through lower material unit prices - Maintenance and improvement of painting quality due to enhanced paint adhesion - Efficient procurement of parts by controlling excessive quality

In the semiconductor manufacturing industry's cleanroom materials, high quality standards are required alongside cost efficiency. Particularly when it comes to components such as housings and frames that are intended for painting, the finishing grade of the material surface may be excessively high, potentially driving up costs. Our proposed SUS430KD is less expensive per unit compared to SUS430, while its slightly rougher surface finish enhances paint adhesion. This allows for cost reduction without significantly altering the quality of the material itself. We recommend changing the material from SUS430 to the more paint-suitable SUS430KD. 【Usage Scenarios】 - Housings, chassis, frames, and covers within cleanrooms - Components intended for painting - Projects requiring cost reduction 【Benefits of Implementation】 - Reduction in material costs (expecting a cost reduction of about 10-15% based on materials) - Improved paint adhesion in the painting process - Enhanced cost efficiency while maintaining quality

In ship deck hardware, durability and weather resistance are required, while controlling material costs is also an important issue. Particularly for parts intended for painting, the finishing grade of the material surface may be of excessive quality, potentially driving up costs. Our proposed SUS430KD has a slightly rougher surface finish compared to SUS430, which enhances paint adhesion, while being more cost-effective. This allows for cost reduction without significantly changing the quality of the material itself. Changing the material to SUS430KD contributes to improved economic efficiency while maintaining the performance of deck hardware. 【Usage Scenarios】 - Enclosures, frames, and covers for marine deck hardware - Parts intended for painting 【Benefits of Implementation】 - Cost reduction through lower material unit prices - Maintenance and improvement of painting quality due to enhanced paint adhesion - SUS430KD has the same chemical composition as SUS430, allowing for cost reduction while minimizing impact on quality.
