[Explanation Material] Registered: Causes and Countermeasures for Stainless Steel Containers Rusting Quickly Under Certain Conditions.

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.

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.

Perfect for food factories! A simple structure dustpan made of all stainless steel.

A dustpan made of all stainless steel that is resistant to rust and hygienic. It has a small contact area, allowing it to be used without wobbling even on uneven floors. - Ideal for cleaning hygienic places such as food factories and areas around water. - Dustpans can be stacked on top of each other for space-saving storage. - The 【DPS-W】 model has a drainage hole in the tray, allowing you to stand while draining excess water and collecting only the trash.

This is an all-stainless steel cart used in a wide range of fields, including pharmaceuticals, physics and chemistry, food manufacturing, and kitchens.

○ This cart is made of stainless steel (SUS304), making it resistant to rust and easy to handle. ○ The handle is fixed by welding, ensuring stability without wobbling. ○ To ensure safe use, the corners of the cargo area are rounded. ○ It uses reinforcement materials on the back that do not accumulate dirt, making it sturdy and hygienic. ○ The 【NW-D-FB】 model comes with a foot-operated brake. Simply stepping on the pedal easily locks the wheels.

When it comes to hyper CLT sheets, many people may have the image of sheets used at construction or civil engineering sites. However, the potential of hyper CLT sheets (NETIS registration number TH-250021-A) goes beyond that. We believe that hyper CLT sheets can be utilized not only as "site materials" but also as "materials that support gathering places." One representative scene of this utilization is event venues. At event venues, there are many situations where it is necessary to temporarily protect the ground or create a safe environment for passage, such as outdoor events, local festivals, exhibitions, around temporary stages, food truck areas, material delivery routes, and pedestrian pathways for visitors. In this way, hyper CLT sheets have the potential to contribute to creating a foundation for people to gather, move safely, and use spaces, going beyond the framework of being merely "sheets for construction." Hyper CLT sheets have the potential to be active not only at construction sites but also in various situations such as event venues and temporary spaces. We do not want to think of "sheets" as something only for sites, but rather we aim to further expand their possibilities in the future.

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 any thermal impact on the base material. Repairs can be conducted 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 a detailed technical explanation is required, please contact us.

Japan is among the top 10 countries in the world with frequent earthquakes. The 2020 White Paper on Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism has also reported an increase in the probability of significant earthquakes occurring. For the Nankai Trough earthquake, the probability of an earthquake with a magnitude of 8 to 9 occurring within the next 30 years is estimated to be 70 to 80%. At Hotron, we recommend the introduction of seismic devices for earthquake measures in buildings and equipment. The seismic device 'HK-2' is a product that automatically performs various controls that have been pre-set when it detects strong shaking equivalent to a seismic intensity of 5 lower or higher. For example, it can automatically execute actions such as: "Open automatic doors and gates to secure evacuation routes and access for emergency vehicles" "Transmit signals to the control room and stop facility equipment" "Unlock the keys to locked lockers" "Automatically play voice guidance" ◎ For more details, please download the materials or contact us.
