Before[ PVC spring hose / Ferrule hose nipple / Hose clamp ]

On a line producing small lots of curry roux (sauce), a customer had a hose that had a vacuum, and they found roux leaking from a metal fitting during conveyance. The hose was able to handle temperatures up to 60°C, but the place with the leak was 80°C, so they began looking for a better hose. On top of that, their plant had instituted a policy to eliminate the use of PVC, so they needed to find a hose that met that requirement as well.

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

FERRULE hose assemblies were tested for TOYOSILICONE-S Hose because it can be vacuumed at high temperature and satisfies the condition of it being non-PVC. The coupling structure that prevents liquid accumulation was praised for having excellent cleanability.
