Smart Manufacturing for a New Era of Food: Sanjun Sheet Metal Unveils Ultra-Durable Ordering Machine Enclosures for the Food Service Industry

(Report) Under the empowerment of Industry 4.0 technology, Sanjun Electromechanical, a leading domestic sheet metal manufacturing company, announced today that its fourth-generation ordering machine enclosures have officially entered mass production. At the smart factory site, reporters observed that the pure white casing resembled a technological sculpture amidst the bustling production line—the 15° tilted display screen support frame on the top of the machine body seamlessly integrates with the intelligent card slot module at the bottom, while stacked stainless steel coils and laser cutting equipment in the background provide robust power for mass production.

【Breakthrough in Damage Resistance】

The housing adopts the sheet metal industry’s first-of-its-kind “sandwich protective structure”:

1.2mm galvanized steel plate base + 0.5mm antibacterial coating + nano-crystallized glass panel

▸ Tested by a third-party institution to withstand 2 million touch impacts

▸ The entire unit has passed IP54 protection certification (resistant to splashing grease/liquid penetration)

“The annual damage rate of traditional fast-food restaurant equipment reaches 37%. Our corrugated reinforcement rib design reduces maintenance costs by 60%.” The chief engineer pointed to the internal reinforcement structure of the housing on the production line.

【Industrial Aesthetics in Practice】

The design team started from the pain points of the catering scene:

✅ Sterile white: Food-grade powder coating that passed a 96-hour salt spray test

✅ Quick and clean structure: Screwless snap-fit assembly (workers in the background demonstrate disassembly and assembly by hand)

✅ Space efficiency: 85° tapered base saves 20% counter space

The cable management system reserved at the bottom is cleverly hidden within the square base cavity.

【Smart Manufacturing On-Site】

In the filming scene:

The laser cutting machine in the background is processing steel plates from the same batch (the blue equipment in the image)

Quality control inspectors are checking the edge R corners at the workbench (the person’s movements on the right side of the frame)

Finished products are stacked awaiting modular assembly (the metal shelving area in the bottom left corner)

“This housing system boosts overall assembly efficiency by 3 times.” The production director demonstrates the universal interface compartment compatible with multiple motherboards.

【Food and Beverage Ecosystem Layout】

This housing system is currently applied to:

Dual-screen ordering terminals for chain hot pot restaurants

AI-powered visual checkout counters for smart canteens

Payment all-in-one machines for unmanned convenience stores

The first batch of 2,000 units is currently in production in the workshop shown in the image. The QR codes on the orange logistics boxes enable full-process traceability. Just like the pure white enclosure bathed in workshop lighting at the center of the image—Sanjun is redefining the vitality of catering terminals with the power of metal.
