When using stainless steel containers, there are various requirements for the containers depending on their intended use. For instance, when transporting contents to the next process, specifications that allow for the movement of the entire container are necessary. Here, we will explain various carts and stands that are commonly used in combination with our stainless steel containers. However, what is written here is an introduction to those that are generally known. There are many other types of carts and stands depending on materials, applications, and usage environments. When considering containers, we will propose the most suitable carts and stands that match your usage environment and purpose. We hope this explanatory document will serve as a reference when considering stainless steel containers.

A Type 20 tank refers to a tank used for the temporary storage and retention of hazardous materials. It is named as such because it is defined in Article 9, Paragraph 1, Item 20 of the Fire Service Act's "Ordinance on the Regulation of Hazardous Materials." Here, we will provide a clear explanation of the uses and criteria for Type 20 tanks. Nitto Metal Industry is capable of manufacturing stainless steel Type 20 tanks and containers for the transportation of hazardous materials. Please feel free to contact us with details about the contents and capacity.

"Burring" refers to a processing technique where a hole is made in a material and the edges of that hole are extended in a cylindrical shape. This technology is generally used to secure screw threads, but at Nitto Metal Industry, it is employed for purposes such as improving the cleanability of containers. In industries such as pharmaceuticals and food, where preventing foreign matter contamination is particularly emphasized, stainless steel containers are often used due to their resistance to rust and hygienic properties. The "cleanability," characterized by the difficulty of dirt accumulation and ease of cleaning, is an important point in equipment selection. The processing technique that demonstrates effectiveness in this regard is the "burring process" that we will introduce here. This document will outline the methods and purposes of burring processing at our company.

Have you ever experienced the following issues while using stainless steel containers? - Contents or dirt getting trapped in the rim of the container, making it impossible to remove. - Dirt accumulating on the handle, causing inconvenience. - Taking a long time to remove dirt or cleaning solution that has entered the gaps of the container during the cleaning process. When dirt or foreign substances get into the gaps of the container, they are difficult to remove. This not only prolongs the cleaning process but also the residual dirt or cleaning solution can lead to foreign matter contamination or cross-contamination. So, what kind of stainless steel containers can help reduce cleaning time?

• Stainless steel container

Using a stainless steel tank with a jacket (outer shell), when hot water or steam is circulated inside the jacket, the surface of the tank also becomes high in temperature. This can lead to an increase in the working environment temperature due to heat radiation from the tank, or if the room temperature is low, it may take a long time for the tank temperature to rise. Additionally, there is a risk of burns if someone accidentally touches the high-temperature tank. Here, we will introduce methods for insulating the jacketed tank.

Powder mixing machines are essential in the production processes of food and pharmaceuticals. Our stainless steel containers also play a role as part of equipment such as receiving containers. Mixing powders is not as simple as just preparing a stirrer like you would for liquids. Since powders do not move fluidly, specialized machines are necessary to achieve uniform mixing. Here, we will introduce a few common types of powder mixing machines from the many available.
