At Bunka Shutter's Chitose Plant, skilled workers were observed assessing the condition of steel sheets and fine-tuning the settings of forming machines. The report shows how skilled craftsmanship supports shutter quality on the shop floor.
The report visits Bunka Shutter's Chitose Plant and introduces the work being carried out by Plant Manager Oi Masaru (大井勝) and employees, who support shutter production through their craftsmanship. One scene shows Plant Manager Oi and the company's mascot character showing visitors around the plant.
After the sheet steel is inspected, the settings of the forming machinery are fine-tuned to match its condition. The inspection process and machine settings are presented as important stages that affect the finish of the shutters.
After processing, the steel sheets are assembled by machine and completed as the final shutter curtain. The finished product passes through the plant's processes before proceeding to the final stage of the manufacturing process.
The Chitose Plant is introduced as a workplace where the technology supporting quality is applied, showing how skilled craftsmanship is used in day-to-day operations.
