Cutting the material to a predetermined size, a process called “Shearing”
The stainless steel flat sheet that forms the basis of the stainless steel container is either pre-purchased at a specific size orcut (sheared) to the necessary size in-house.
As the thickness, material, and size of the plate differ for each product,we confirm there are no mistakes in the work instruction sheetand cut it to the necessary dimensions using a specialized machine.We carefully work to prevent dimensional errors and to avoid scratching the surface.
Mainly used steel types
SUS304, SUS316L BA material, 2B material
＞How to select the correct stainless steel material
Main sizes of stainless steel sheets
Meter sheet… Sheet of 1000mm×2000mm.
Shihachi sheet… Sheet of 1219mm×2438mm. Because it’s 4 shaku × 8 shaku size, it’s called “Shihachi”.
Goto sheet… Sheet of 1524mm×3048mm. Because it’s 5 shaku × 10 shaku size, it’s called “Goto”.
Thickness of the flat sheet being used
t0.7mm~t2.0mm
＞Possible thickness of the sheet by the inner diameter of the container
Regulations for the thickness of stainless steel sheets
For example, when measuring the thickness of a t1.0mm (plate thickness of 1.0mm) sheet, it doesn’t exactly measure 1.0mm but has a slight variance. This is because JIS standards have determined tolerances (±), so even if the thickness is slightly thinner than 1.0mm, if it is within the specified range, it can still be said to have a thickness of 1.0mm. Therefore, the thickness can vary slightly depending on when the stainless steel sheet was made.
