Before[ Spring-loaded silicone hose / Ferrule hose nipple / Hose clamp ]

A customer had a silicone spring hose made overseas connected to a meat processing machine. When ground meat and other viscous meat ingredients were passed through, the flow volume was unsteady and a rupture resulted. They tried switching to a domestic high-pressure plastic hose, but it was stiff and difficult to use. Additionally, it was neither transparent nor made for food use.

After[ TOYOSILICONE-S HOSE / FERRULE Coupling (Hose Assemblies)  HF ]

TOYOSILICONE-S Hose assemblies reinforced with metal coil and special braided structure were tested. It was highly praised for transparency and flexibility. It was confirmed that punctures do not occur even when pressure is applied due to flow rate change caused by high viscosity. It was adopted as it conforms to the Food Sanitation Act and FDA.
