Processing examples of SUS304 nameplates
Processing examples of SUS304 nameplates | Laser processing for text cutting and mounting hole processing.
■Overview of Processing Example Product Name: SUS304 Nameplate Dimensions: 2t × 30W × 150L (Mounting Hole φ15×1) Material: SUS304 Processing Method: Laser Processing This processing example involves the manufacturing of a SUS304 nameplate used in industrial machinery and equipment. Mounting holes were created in an elongated plate shape, and processing was required in a letter-cut shape to display part numbers and identification information. The client's industry is related to industrial machinery and equipment. Since the nameplate is permanently attached to the equipment, SUS304 material, which has excellent corrosion resistance, was adopted, and it was emphasized that the displayed content should remain legible over a long period. The product features high visibility due to the letter-cut processing and a unified shape that includes the mounting holes. Laser processing was selected as the method. Laser processing allows for non-contact cutting, which minimizes distortion even in thin SUS304 sheets and accurately reproduces fine letter outlines and hole shapes as per the data. As a result, the variation in letter shapes has been reduced, contributing to the stabilization of mounting accuracy and appearance quality for the equipment.
basic information
■Product Features (Material: SUS304) SUS304 is the most representative stainless steel, known for its excellent balance of corrosion resistance and workability. It is tough and ductile, making it suitable for bending and drawing processes, and it also has good weldability. With high cost performance, it is commonly used in a wide range of fields, from household items to chemical plants. ■Processing Method (Laser Processing) This is a machine tool developed for applications that perform machining impossible with conventional cutting tools by cutting and slicing metals and resins with laser light. Since it processes without contact, the material does not deform due to stress or pressure during processing. By linking with image processing software and directly transferring data to the processing machine, the need for creating molds or casts, which was previously necessary, is eliminated, allowing for the processing of a wide variety of products.

■Q&A (Frequently Asked Questions) Q. Is it possible to perform letter cut-out processing on SUS304 nameplates? A. Yes, it is possible. By using laser processing, we can perform letter cut-out processing that accurately reproduces the letter outlines according to the data, even on thin SUS304 sheets. Q. Can you accommodate small quantities and a variety of models, such as different part numbers? A. Yes, we can accommodate that. Since laser processing does not require molds, we can flexibly respond to different part numbers and small lot projects. Q. Can I consult with you even if the drawings are not finalized? A. Yes, you can. While discussing the intended use and installation conditions, we will propose options for letter sizes, hole positions, and overall shapes. ■Daiko's Capability At Daiko, we handle everything from material selection to consideration of display methods, letter cut-out processing, and design consultation for hole positions in nameplate processing.
