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.
What you check first, and how we handle it
| Criterion | Why it matters here | Where we answer it |
|---|---|---|
| Stainless grade and gauge | Decides durability under daily service and sustained heat | SUS304, SUS316, SUS316L, SUS430 and other grades in the materials guide; laser cut to 40 mm |
| Cleaning access | The operator's first evaluation criterion | Design review at feasibility stage |
| Weld quality on load points | Fastened joints loosen under thermal cycling | Robot arc welding (OTC, 1.3 m envelope) and robot laser welding (1 m envelope) |
| Heat-resistant finishing | Domestic coatings fail at commercial duty temperature | Surface & assembly |
| Certification | Gas equipment cannot be sold without market certification | Testing arranged through Intertek, which certifies YBT’s gas heaters for the EU and North America. See Certifications |
