We have registered "Three methods to check the remaining amount even in stainless steel containers."

I have summarized methods to check the remaining amount (level) even in opaque stainless steel containers that cannot be seen through from the outside.

Stainless steel containers have the disadvantage of requiring extra effort to check the remaining contents. This is because, unlike glass or plastic containers, stainless steel containers are opaque, making it impossible to directly see the level of liquid or other contents inside. However, there are three easy ways to check the remaining contents in a stainless steel container!

BA material, 2B material, buff polishing, electrolytic polishing... A grand reveal of stainless steel surfaces that cannot be discerned by the naked eye!

Smooth, rough, silky... Depending on the material and surface finish, stainless steel shows various appearances. However, it is not possible to see what the actual surface looks like just by visual inspection. Therefore, this time, we will introduce photographs of stainless steel surfaces taken using a scanning electron microscope (SEM). *What is a scanning electron microscope (SEM)?* Unlike optical microscopes (such as magnifying glasses and general microscopes) that use light, a scanning electron microscope uses electron beams. It allows us to clearly see fine surface structures that cannot be observed with optical microscopes.

This is an introduction to the identification management methods for stainless containers (stainless steel products) conducted as part of quality control.

"Identification management" is one of the essential management practices in product manufacturing. In factories, identification management as part of quality control is likely implemented in various situations, such as with materials and manufacturing processes. While the management methods vary depending on the factory and product, it is necessary to choose the optimal identification method suited to the environment. Here, we will introduce the identification management methods for stainless containers (stainless steel products) used in various situations, including raw material storage, production lines, and integration into machinery.

Stainless steel is a metal that is "difficult" to rust!

We sometimes receive inquiries from customers saying, "Even though it's made of stainless steel, it rusted quickly." Stainless steel, as the English words "Stain (rust, corrosion) + less (less) + steel (steel)" suggest, is an alloy of iron that is highly resistant to rust. While it is much less prone to rust compared to regular iron, it is not completely rust-proof. This PDF document summarizes "Why is stainless steel resistant to rust?", "What causes rust on rust-resistant stainless steel?", and "What are the rust prevention measures for stainless steel containers?" You can view it immediately by downloading the PDF.

I have summarized the important cleaning methods to make stainless steel containers last longer.

After using a stainless steel container, it is essential to clean the container. However, incorrect cleaning methods can cause scratches or lead to rust. Here, we will introduce important cleaning methods to help prolong the life of stainless steel containers.

Easy to wash without tools and essential for containers and piping: a summary of the mechanism and related products of "Herl fittings."

When flowing or pouring water and raw materials into stainless steel containers or equipment, I believe that pipes and valves are connected to the containers or equipment. When connecting these, threaded fittings such as sockets and nipples, as well as "fittings" like flanges and hygienic fittings, are used. Here, we will introduce "hygienic fittings," which are used in processes that require a more sanitary environment, including their applications, types, and related products.

A guidebook useful for in-house study sessions! The unsung hero connecting containers and equipment! An explanation of the characteristics of various fittings and installation examples, complete with images, that you can’t ask about now!

At MONOVATE, which boasts 65 years of experience in industries including food and pharmaceuticals, we are currently offering a reference document titled "Pipe Fittings for Stainless Steel Containers" as a gift. This document provides clear explanations of the four types of fittings: elbow, threaded, flange, and tube, covering fundamental knowledge such as structure, applications, and shapes. It also includes a list of advantages, a selection guide based on purpose, and installation examples. The document is presented in full color with numerous images. 【Contents】 ■ Features, advantages, and disadvantages of each fitting ■ Selection guide for fittings based on purpose ■ Installation examples of fittings ■ Glossary of terms *This document can be viewed immediately via [Download]. *Please note that there are no printed booklets available, and we are unable to send them by mail. Thank you for your understanding.

The "Mechanical Stitching Method" by Nichinichisui Road Machinery Co., Ltd. is a new technique that allows for the repair of metal cracks without the application of heat. By using special bolts and reinforcement plates, cracks are physically removed, and repairs are made without causing any thermal impact to the base material. Repairs can be carried out in environments where open flames cannot be used. Since no heat is applied, the disassembly of equipment is minimized. ◎ For more details, please contact us. ◎ If you require a detailed technical explanation, please contact us.

Metal cracks are one of the concerns in equipment maintenance operations. Conventional welding repair methods can alter the base material around the crack due to heat, leading to residual stress and deformation, which always carries the risk of "crack recurrence" and "secondary damage." Hinode Water Supply Equipment Co., Ltd.'s "Mechanical Stitching Method" is a new technique that allows for metal crack repair without applying heat. By using special bolts and reinforcement plates, the crack is physically removed without affecting the base material with heat. Repairs can be made even in environments where open flames cannot be used. Since no heat is applied, the disassembly of equipment is minimized.

We will be exhibiting our products at "JECA FAIR 2026 (the 74th Electrical Construction Exhibition)" held at Tokyo Big Sight. At this exhibition, we will be jointly exhibiting with Mibu Electric Manufacturing. Our booth will focus on the "Panel Manufacturing Skill-less Solution," which addresses the labor shortage issues in panel manufacturing that have required skilled workers, enabling less experienced operators to achieve high-quality manufacturing in processes such as wire processing, component assembly, and wiring work. We will also introduce various other products. We invite you to visit our booth during your visit. ■ Exhibition Name: JECA FAIR 2026 (the 74th Electrical Construction Exhibition) ■ Location: Tokyo Big Sight, Halls 1-3 ■ Booth Numbers: 1-01 ECAD Solutions, 1-02 Joint Exhibition with Mibu Electric Manufacturing ■ Dates: May 27 (Wednesday) - May 29 (Friday), 2026, for three days ■ Hours: May 27 (Wednesday) 10:30 AM - 5:00 PM May 28 (Thursday) 10:00 AM - 5:00 PM May 29 (Friday) 10:00 AM - 4:30 PM *For more information about the exhibited products, please download the materials.
