Industry application

Foodservice Equipment Sheet Metal Parts and ODM Manufacturing

Commercial grill bodies, burner assemblies, burner covers and stainless enclosures for kitchen and outdoor foodservice equipment.

What does foodservice equipment demand that consumer product does not?

Foodservice equipment is evaluated by the person who has to clean it. Cooking performance is assumed; what separates units in an operator's assessment is whether grease-contact parts can be removed and replaced quickly, whether corners can actually be reached, and whether the unit survives a full service every day rather than occasional use. That pushes the build toward heavier gauge stainless, welded rather than fastened structure at load points, and removable components with tolerances loose enough to refit when hot. Sustained operating temperature also rules out coatings that would be acceptable on a domestic product. YBT builds commercial grill formats in stainless from its own fabrication and assembly lines, and treats cleaning access as a design constraint rather than a later revision.

Questions you may have about this sector

Can you build a complete commercial grill, not just parts?
Yes. Complete units are built as ODM through to packing.
What stainless grades do you work with?
SUS304, SUS316, SUS316L, SUS301, SUS410, SUS420 and SUS430, in No. 1, 2B, hairline and BA surface finishes. SUS304 is the standard grade for YBT’s own grill burners; SUS316 and 316L are used where chloride exposure requires it.
Do you weld stainless in house?
Yes. Stainless is welded in house on an OTC arc welding robot with a 1.3 m working envelope and on a laser welding robot with a 1 m envelope, with manual welding for jigs and low volumes.
