kavhinge and drawer slides

There was a message on my Furniture hinge blog and Business blog last week, which says the side panel is 30mm, want full overlay, how to choose the hinge. The person did not leave any information plus I’m busy in the time, so can’t answer the question in an article, here is the dialogue on QQ the day before yesterday.

C for Client, K for Kingwen

  C: Hello, Mr. Liang, we had a phone call in the morning, maybe it was not clear, I had a question, the thickness of the side panel is 30mm, and the door requires full overlay, how to choose the hinge?

  K: As far as I’m concerned, this kind of hinge is not sold in the market, only can be customized, what the quantity you want?

  C: I don’t know much about the hinge, whether the American-style can meet the requirement?

  K: Using the American-style hinge, the hinge can be seen in the side way, there is a gap about 3mm to 5mm, and the design is framed.

  C: So is will cost much when customize the hinge? And whether there is a quantity limit?

  K: It will cost 3 Yuan per piece. One of my client once asked he need the hinge which cover 28mm, but it is barely asked by the clients, so what’s the quantity?

  C: We are on the discussion now, the amount is not large. We haven’t considered the thickness of the side panel and neglect the choice of hinge. If the market has molded products to choose from is the best, if not, because of the amount is uncertain so I do not know whether the manufacturers are willing to customize. If the side panel is thickness, the door is normal, my suggestion is the inset design, and it can save the material, and have a better choice. It is hard for factory to produce when the quantity is not large, and you choose the full-overlay.

  C: We have taken this into consideration, but we still want the full-overlay because of the style of hinge, so here is the problem.

  K: You can take a look at the American-cabinet, to see if you can accept the gap

  C: Can you give me some advice? Thank you. I haven’t seen the American cabinet; I have used the domestic products.

  K: Sorry, I don’t think it will work. The side panel American-cabinet used is normal, just plus a wooden frame, then it covers longer.

  C: That’s what I want to know, what’s the meaning of “gap”? I also have one frame.

  K: It means the gap between the door and cabinet when close the door.

  C: The gap is about 3mm to 5mm?

  K: Yes, you can see the hinge directly in the side way.

  C: So it does not affect the beauty？

  K: Different people have different opinions, but the American does love them.

  C: Sorry, I just left for a while. If we had the opportunity to cooperate, what’s the customized process and requirement?

  K: The amount must be large.

  C: What’s the minimum of the quantity?

  K: You can give me the quantity when you have decided, OK?

  C: What about the cost price, including the design price?

  K: At least several thousands.

  C: Let’s think about it; hope we have the chance to cooperate. Thanks for teaching me so much about the hinge, hope we can talk about the hinge in the near future.

When I just log on QQ this morning, an instant message has come out, it’s from a customer who took the samples three years ago, which writes: Hello, I’m XXX from XXX company in Zhejiang, you’ve played the two damping for me three years ago, do you remember? The client has tested and was satisfied with it, now we would play the first order, 5000 sets.

I’ve checked the message about the client, have a little impress, but have forgotten the style he referred.

I’m so happy about it, replied immediately ：Of course I do remember, just can’t remember the style of the sample, could you please sent the picture of the sample to me, I will help to arrange the production at once.

He answered: OK, I have the picture here, now sending it to you.

When I took a look at it, oh, it is this model.

The client is a producer who product car Refrigerator, the soft-closing drawer slide glides is used in the refrigerator from a Korea client, the material required is environment-friendly galvanized, in addition, it must ensure that the refrigerator normal use in the negative 5 degrees, and when we push and pull the drawer extension slide, it should be no noise. Years of experience told me that the clients from Japan and Korea are strict in the quality. When I took the sample first time, I sent it to my client immediately, and they gave some advice on it, then I reproduced the sample, the client gave some suggestion in detail. It was the third time that they are satisfied with our sample. Hard work pays off, the client says test pass three years later and play the first order.

From the deal, give me the greatest feeling is you must be patient when you do the business. Do not think that a client contact you today, you have sent samples and made a quotation even talked to the client face to face, that he or she will certainly play an order in the near future. And do not think a client is hopeless when he or she haven’t played an order for half a year, and then give up the client. Actually many customers take half a year to order from taking samples to play an order, especially those who from aboard, they usually take our samples to do the product design, and it will take a long time to do the business. Or he was cooperated with a certain factory, and now he want to change it ,after taking the samples, he will pay attention to the big client that work with us, how the feeling with use our products, or the evaluation of our products, with an detail analyze, then he will play an order.

What is cabinet hinge made of? It is the common question that clients asked Kingwen Liang. Hinge, in the spring kav hinge which Kingwen Liang engaged in, most of them use the cold-rolled steel Q195. About the knowledge of cold-rolled steel, please pay attention to the article below: The use and classification of cold-rolled steel and cold-rolled coil Cold-rolled steel, the cold-rolled thin steel is short for the ordinary carbon structure cold-rolled steel, is known as the cold steel, sometimes it will be mistakenly written as cold plate. The cold plate is composed of ordinary carbon structural steel hot-steel, After further cold-rolled it will become the steel that the thickness is less than 4mm. Since the rolling is at a room temperature, it does not produce iron oxide, so it has high surface quality and high toughness, plus the annealing treatment, the mechanical properties and process performance is better than hot-rolled steel. In many fields, especially in the electrical appliance area, has gradually replaced the hot-rolled steel. Applicable grades: Q195 Q215 Q235 Q275 SPCC (Japan brand) ST12 (Germany brand) Symbol:

Q- The code of common carbon structure steel point (limit), it is the first Chinese alphabet, 195 215 235 255 275- respectively the number of their yield point, unit: MPa (N/mm2). Since Q235 steel is better in the strength, plasticity, toughness and weld ability, can meet the general use demands better, so it is widely used in the area.

S- For steel, P-For plate, C-For cold and the fourth C-For common

ST-For steel, 12-for ordinary thin sold-rolled steel

Most of the consumers focus on the style and color of the bathroom cabinet when they choose the cabinet, pays little attention to the selection of cabinet hardware accessories. Actually the accessories is one of the most important part of modern bathroom furniture, it will directly affect the overall level and the function of the bathroom cabinet.

  Bathroom cabinet hardware accessories mainly include: hinges, drawer slides, hydraulic and the anchor. Today we mainly discuss how to choose the cupboard door hinges.

  Hinge, is an important part of the bathroom cabinet, is most used in the cupboard switching process. At current market, hinge is mainly include: soft close hinge, common hinge, two-way hinge, two-dimensional hinge and three-dimensional hinge by function. By material, hinge mainly include: cold-rolled sheet and stainless steel hinge.

  Now there are two kinds of cabinet door hinge: clip on and fixed. The clip-on hinge is divided into base and pedestal two parts, of course, it is easier to install and disassemble for the clip-on hinge. The hinge usually use the two-dimensional and three-dimensional eccentric displacement to adjust , the three-dimensional hinge is of course better. In addition, you should choose the hinge with a hydraulic buffer ,which makes the door is easy to open and closed slowly, so as to ensure the safety and avoid the noise when you close the door, guarantee the life more comfortable and quite.

  Actually the most significant part of hinge is the material that made of the hinge , if the material is not good, the door may be dropped out after a period of time. It is better to use the self-closing stainless steel hinges in the bathroom, its thickness and toughness is perfect. Finally, suggest you to choose the hinge which made by brands, it will ensure the high quality and longer service life.

铰链安装好后门缝大而且碰撞怎么办？

作者：kingwen

话说快要下班了，突然，电脑上的聊天软件闪出对话框 客户（以下简称B）：“你好，是梁镜文先生吗（以下简称A）？“ A：“你好，我是kav品牌家居五金配件的梁先生，请问问有什么可以帮到您？” B：“我这边采购了一批铰链，但是安装到柜门那里，出现这样的问题，门缝很大，但是又关不起来，出现两扇门‘打架’的情况，不知道您这边能解决不。” A：“你这批产品是在我司采购的吗？” B：“不是，铰链是XX公司采购的。听朋友说你对这方面比较专业，所以请教一下，麻烦你了。” A：“关于你这个问题，要一个个细节分析排除才知道是什么原因导致的。”

以下几个就是有可能导致门关不上的原因排除：

铰链的调节螺丝是否正确，是否方向调反了（如上图①，即B螺丝）

铰链的铰杯位置是否正确，上图③位置是否在3-7mm

铰链的底座是否常规底座，上图④所示位置

排除了前两个问题点以外，就剩下第三个问题----底座是否常规底座。当时客人也提到，铰链平放在桌之上，跟常规铰链的高度不一样，高出了大概3mm（还拍摄了几张对比图片），于是我跟客人说：“底座是否有刻印‘H=2 或 H=3’的，如果是的话，问题点就在这里” 客户说“是有H=3的字眼。”（H=3意思是底座加高了3mm，一边是3mm，两边就是6mm） 终于得出了答案，因为底座加高了，导致门缝太宽，而且两个门板会碰撞（即使上图所示B螺丝已经调到极限，也会出现门缝太宽，门板重合碰撞） 原因找出来了，但是最终问题还没有解决。 于是客户问我：“那现在该怎么处理呢？” A：“你这个产品不是在我司采购的，麻烦你提供一下图片，我看看铰链是否拆装的，如果不是只能退换。”

图片传过来以后，A：“这款产品，你只要更换底座为H=0的就可以了，你问供应商拿，应该是橱柜铰链供应商配错底座了”    B：“你这边有吗，我不想跟那样的供应商合作了。”    A：“产品虽然大同小异，但是每个厂家的工艺是不一样的，你只能在供应商那里先拿来用，或者退换。。。”    B：“那好吧，按您的说只能这样了。。。梁先生你的专业知识我得多多学习，很感谢你下班了还为我解决困扰，不打扰你的休息时间了！88”    A：“不客气，为您解决问题就是在巩固我的专业知识！88”    话落，已是7点，下班离开。

分析中国家具五金配件发展现状及趋势

作者：梁镜文

身在 家具五金行业，关注市场变化，通过与广大客户的接触再加上《中国家具五金配件发展现状》这一篇文章，梁镜文深有所悟，以下也把自己的一些见解与大家分享：（蓝色字体为我所悟）

　　五金基材的多样化，结构的改变和使用功能的增加，使家具五金在家具上的作用不再仅仅是装饰和部分活动部件的连接，对其功能性要求越来越高，涉及的领域也越来越广。

　　这样，家具五金的地位越来越显得重要，他的发展对家具制造企业提高生产效率，降低成本，提高产品的质量，增强国内外市场的竞争力，增创效益都起到了积极的作用。

　　现状

　　目前市场上的五金件，品种非常丰富。每年，世界上最好的专业五金厂家都会在自身产品的家具设计上下足工夫，国外著名厂家不断开发新产品，给家具五金配件的造型结构设计带来了崭新的面貌。在产品趋于同质化的今天，实力雄厚的厂家用先进的技术为产品设计了更人性化的功能，更富时尚感的外观，使之与家具风格的变化紧紧相连。

　　据调查，中国市场中家具五金件的品牌有上百种（其实杂牌远不止于此，一些低端铰链滑轨厂家一间有的多大几十个牌子），但其中真正在市场中拥有一定知名度的企业很少，特别是国内的五金件产品能进入高档产品行列的就更少了。90％以上的高档家具品牌都是选配国外五金件，如：德国的HAFELE（海福乐）、hetttich（海蒂诗），奥地利的BLUM（百隆），意大利的法拉利等。国外五金件已经成为高档家具的主要标志，国内一些大型家具企业，尽管已经具有了一定的知名度，但为了适应高档家具领域激烈的市场竞争，也不得不大量采用国外五金件，以进一步扩大产品在市场上的份额。对于那些小型家具企业，采用国外五金件更是它们迅速提高产品档次和知名度的重要途径。国外五金件在国内家具产品中有这样的地位，与它自身的优势密不可分。

　　中国家具五金配件业的设计时代已悄然来临，与此同时，设计正日益成为制约中国家具五金配件业发展的瓶颈。中南林学院的胡景初教授曾把中国家具设计的现状归纳为“五多五少”——仿造多，创造少、共性多、个性少、国际形式多、民族形式少、大路产品多、精品少、杂牌多、名牌少。家具五金件的设计也存在同样的问题。（在这一点来说，的确是实情，但中国家具五金制造企业大多还处于摸索与财富积累当中，要一下子达到国外企业的高水平研发并落实到流水线当中相信还是有一段路要走，不过，随着中国家具业的蓬勃发展，需求越来越大，已经涌现了越来越多的中国式创造，如内置液压阻尼器的 液压铰链现在大量流行也可说是中国家具五金届的创新结晶。）

　　企业应该意识到，我国家具五金配件的设计水平、制造技术和管理水平还比较落后，与工业发达国家相比尚显稚嫩。中国加入WTO后，行业面对的市场竞争更加激烈。因此，必须通过高新技术提高家具五金配件产品的设计和生产水平，配合先进的管理来加快发展，使我国的家具五金配件业更上一个新层次。

　　趋势

　　现代家具五金配件的发展同样提倡以人为本；并且流行各种新型高级拆装式家具五金。新型五金配件的开发和引进，在功能、款式、质量上的更新和提高，也赋予了家具款式和功能上的不断更新发展。为了提高家具生产效率，方便生产和设计，对家具孔的加工实行标准化、系列化和通用化，从而产生了32mm系列，实现了家具零部件的标准化和较强的互换性。家具的标准化也使家具五金在通用性、互换性、功能性方面更为便利。

　　有一种最新开发的五金，价格很贵，从中国运到欧洲的家具大多采用这种拆装式五金，它可以节省很多安装时间，并且能够很快地组装起来。如Onefix、Slimfix、Pushfix、Caravan等五金。

　　纵观现代家具五金的最新工艺及应用，主要有四个方面：

　　1、在现代家具五金中，玻璃、高光材料（哑克力、烤漆、高光贴面材料等）及金属材料与传统家具板材的结合使用比例有上升的趋势。如：全玻璃门五金的应用渐渐增加。

　　2、阻尼功能成为各种家具的必备功能，譬如，现在使用得较多的是阻尼抽屉路轨、阻尼门铰、阻尼移门五金、阻尼门碰、阻尼上下翻门五金等。（和谐静音是现代世界吵杂生活中回归家庭里最需要的五金功能件）

　　3、可升降组合桌架系统、桌面搁物管理系统，例如：液晶显示屏支架、电话支架等。各种导线管理系统，例如，桌面暗插座以及各种专用五金被广泛应用于办公家具之中。例如：重型拉篮抽屉、办公门铰等，可升降组合桌架。

　　4、按压开门型门铰链、抽屉路轨及暗拉手被广泛使用在无拉手家具及暗拉手家具中，譬如：PUSH铰链、按压销、PUSH抽屉轨、暗拉手。暗藏式连接件是指在两块板之间连接，从外面看不见连接件，并且连接的方法众多。暗拉手家具，表面上看上去没有拉手，在厨柜上使用较多，厅柜现在也使用，这些按压式铰链，打开时要按压一下。（从现在的大型家具展会中，经常看到按压型自开的抽屉或柜门，无拉手不破坏家具外观的整体性，让家具线条看上去更流畅，更舒服！）

　　从中国家具五金配件的现状与趋势不难看出，大路货在我们这一行业越来越成熟，而真正做出差异化与特殊五金功能应用的企业大量缺失，这与企业的获取相关资信较少与创新信心不足有很大关系。

　　不过，可喜的是，通过网络，客户一发生新的功能五金件就会想起梁镜文在铰链滑轨行业的专业并与我交谈寻求创新帮助，使我写出相应的文章，并由于与设计师们的大量沟通也使我越来越专业，所获得的铰链滑轨趋势也比一般企业要早与信息较准。因网络上优势，梁镜文在未来有必要负起这一个责任，与众多志同道合者一同，开发更多与中国家具变得更人性化与更高档的家具五金件。

　　有信心，在不久的将来，中国家具五金将会摘掉全球低端五金配件供应商的帽子。

What is hinge made of？

  By Kingwen Liang

What is kitchen cabinet hinge made of？It is often asked by the clients to Kingwen Liang.

Kitchen cabinet door Hinge, in the spring hinge industry which Kingwen Liang is engaged in, cold rolled steel Q195 is most used. About the knowledge of the cold rolled steel, please pay attention to the article below

The classification and use of the cold rolled steel and the cold rolled coil

Cold-rolled steel is short for the thin cold-rolled steel which is made from ordinary carbon structural, commonly known as the cold plate. Cold plate is the steel that made up of ordinary carbon structural steel hot-rolled steel belt; the thickness is less than 4mm after further cold rolling. The cold plate has a favorable quality and high precision in size because it is made in the room temperature and would not produce scale, plus with the annealing treatment, the mechanical properties and process performance are better than hot rolled steel, in many fields, especially in home appliance manufacturing areas, has been gradually replace the hot rolled steel.

Applicable grades: Q195 Q215 Q235 Q275 SPCC (Japan brand) ST12 (Germany brand)

Symbol:

1.      Q- The code for the ordinary carbon structural point (limit), it is the first word of Chinese phonetic alphabet. 195 215 235 255 275-represent the number the cold-rolled steel can bear (limit), the unit (MPa ). The Q235 is the best in the strength, plasticity, toughness of the ordinary carbon structural, it can meet the demand of daily use, so the application range is very wide.

2.      S-for steel. P for plate. C for cold-rolled. And the fourth-regular grade C for common.

3.      ST for Steel and the number 12 stand for the ordinary cold-rolled steel.

Mark: size precision-dimensions-plate breed standard

     Cold-rolled steel: Steel-technical condition standard

Mark example: B-0.57501500-GB708-88, Steel, Q/BQB402 Standard, grade (SPCC), annealing heat treatment state plus level(S), table textured D, with central processing status to surface quality level for FB trimming steel; the thickness is 0.5mm, B precision of width 1000mm. a level precision ,length is 2000mm, A level precision ,roughness of PF precision. A, is marked as: steel ECQ/BQB 402-(SPCC)-SD-FB/(A2000A-PF.0.51000A)

Cold-rolled steel: Q225-GB912-89

The main origin: Bao steel, steel, Ben steel, Wu steel, Han steel, Bao steel, Tang steel, Lian steel, Ji steel and so on.

Ordinary cold-rolled steel: This is made up of ordinary carbon structural or low alloy structural. It has a good surface quality and a perfect punching property. It requires passing the cold bending test, which is common used in the automotive industry.

High quality cold-rolled steel: mainly include all kinds of high quality cold-rolled steel; the most commonly used is the carbon structural, especially for deep drawing, which is composed of low carbon cold-rolled steel. According to the surface quality, divided it into three parts: I II III, respectively the special senior, senior and high rough surface, according to the drawing, can be divided into ZF, HF and F, due to the toughness of the steel, can deeply divided into A and B, is widely used in the automobile tractor industry.

Cold-rolled steel: with smoothly surface, excellent in processing, commonly used in the automobile refrigerator washing machine and other home appliance, it is also used in the industrial equipment and all kinds of building material. With the development of economy, the cold-rolled steel is called as the material of modern society.

“一段力铰链与二段力铰链有什么区别?”时至今日，依然不少人用这一个问句问我。

　其实这一个问题，我在最早的博客阶段已经先写了，只是这一问题是以两篇文章分开来解释。

　　《如何选择合适柜门铰链之：一段力铰链》中有提及：“一段力的铰链在关门的时候是很干脆的，只要你用小小力带一下，它就会毫不犹豫的把门关上，它的特点就是爽快有力．如果你想要爽快的效果，那么，一段力的铰链就是你的最佳选择了．”

　　而在《如何选择合适柜门铰链之：二段力铰链》中有提及：“二段力铰链，其特点是关门时门板在45度以前可以任一角度停顿，45度后自行关闭。当然，市场上也有一些厂家生产出30度后就自行关闭的，也有到60度后才关闭的。”

　　至于用户是想要一段力铰链还是二段力铰链，就看自己的喜好啦。是想爽快？还是想要带点缓冲？

　　青菜下豆腐，各人所爱吧！

主要产品分为：

1、橱柜铰链系列：　橱柜铰链的要求一般要求比家具铰链系列要高，包括耐用性与防锈性方面，　　

2、家具铰链系列：　家具铰链系列是经济与质量适应最强的铰链，大量应用于中国家具厂家与中东地区。

3、液压铰链系列：　液压铰链也叫缓冲铰链，阻尼铰链，是时下铰链应用行业最用关注的产品，其特点是无声关门，创造和谐，这也未来主攻产品系列，现在已经销售到俄罗斯、台湾、欧美等地区。

4、特殊铰链系列：　特殊铰链包括玻璃铰链、铝框门铰链、170度铰链、美式铰链、不用拉手的反弹铰链等产品系列，让家具更有个性。

5、家具五金系列：　配套包括滑轨、三合一拆装件、气压支撑、随意停、趟门轮等家具五金配件．

  对于铰链只要你有任何疑问，我厂均会竭力为你分忧。也可以到梁镜文的家具铰链营销博客中看一下梁镜文为你写作及收集的家具、橱柜、五金方面的相关知识。

  橱柜越来越受人重视：二段力铰链用量最广，但缓冲铰链的使用现在也日益增多。

反弹滑轨为什么有时会弹不出来

作者：cindy

今天QQ上有个贸易商老客户A先生说：“我已收到你寄的反弹钢珠轨，也赶到台湾，客户对滑轨的电镀、做工、结构非常满意，经过测试质量OK,因为他以前用的全部是海福乐的产品，认为我这款全完可以取代海福乐，但是有一个问题，必须要解决才能考虑。为什么安装海福乐的反弹滑轨，每一次都可以弹出来，而我们的20次里面会有一次是弹不出来的？”。

我在想不会呀，我们的滑轨那么多出口到国外，要是真的这种问题，早就有客人退柜啦，我们也一定早就改进啦。于是我就问他：“A先生，关于您所提的这个问题，相信我可以解决的，请问你三个问题：第一，安装时是否上下水平、前后对齐？第二，如图，离面板是否有至少预留5MM,（因为安装反弹钢珠导轨是需给抽屉预留触碰反弹的空间的）？第三，安装间隙是否单边是预留13.2-13.3MM之间.”

A先生：“说到这一点不是哦，他预留的是海福乐的12.7的间隙哦！”

我建议他加大抽屉与柜体的空隙到两边一起是26.5MM，相信一定能解决问题。

他按照我所说的与客户一起重新安装，进行测试，结果每一次都可以弹出来，效果很好。

他的客人立即叫他先生产几千套，说后面就会大量。

面对顾客，我明显的感觉到，必须要专业才能立即帮客户解决问题，不然，这个订单就可能就此泡汤啦。

Why the push open slide can’t push open sometimes?

One of my clients chatted with me via QQ today. He has already received our touch open ball bearing slide. He felt very satisfied with the galvanizing, craft and structure of our products. And after the test, he said the quality of our product is great. Because they have been using hafele’s products, now he thinks ours can replace hafele’s completely. However, there is a problem that needs to be solved before they consider using our product. The problem is that our touch open ball bearing slide was unable to push open one of every twenty times, but hafele’s drawer slide glides does not have this problem.

  Due to our products exported to many countries, if that problem appeared before, many clients will cancel the order. And we must have improved already. So I asked him some questions. “Mr. A, I believe we can work out the problem you pointed out, so please allow me to ask you three questions”. “Firstly, were you ensured horizontal and align front and back? Secondly, as the drawing shows, have you reserved at least 5 mm for front panel?(Because it need to save some space for push open ball bearing slide to push open.)

Third, have the installation gap be reserved between 13.2 mm to 13.3 mm?” “Oh, we just did that according to hafele’s installation requirements.” Said Mr. A. I suggested him re-installing it again as our drawing. He did it and had a test again, as the result, it turns out great.

His client placed an order of several thousand sets of push open ball bearing extension slide right away and there will be many other large orders.

  After experienced that, I obviously realized that without professional products knowledge, you will be in trouble and also you may lose orders.

What’s your opinion?

  Remark: It is forbidden to edit, modify or reprint without special permission by Kingwen Liang, or one should take responsibility for any loss.

Soft closing drawer slides, an indispensable part of drawer slide guides for high level stainless steel bathroom cabinet (original)

 “Mr. Liang, we are specialized in manufacturing stainless steel bathroom cabinets， now we need high level concealed soft closing drawer slides to match our high quality stainless steel bathroom cabinets. I wonder if you can offer us such products. Have you ever reached and developed these series of soft closing drawer slides to other buyers like us? We need more than 5,000 sets drawer slide guides per month.” Since June，here came two customers both inquired us about soft closing drawer slides for stainless steel bathroom cabinet. 

  As the matter of fact, we have designed a kind of 12 inches bottom mount three fold soft closing drawer slides for another bathroom cabinet company,who attended a bathroom cabinet Industry Fair in Shanghai with bathroom cabinet installed with our soft closing drawer slides and catch many people’s eyes. With continuous development of times and increasing accumulation of wealth, requirement of household life is incremental. Comparing wooden bathroom cabinets to stainless steel ones, obviously the latter one is more popular.

  It’s said that the company set the world on fire during the Bathroom cabinet Fair. Same view as mine, the price of stainless steel material is considerably high. The bathroom cabinets will lost its fashion and high-grade without drawer slide guides with great functions. Yet, after installed with our soft closing drawer slides, it works smoothly and no noise. The boss of bathroom cabinet factory said that the quality of your soft closing drawer slides e is great and for design, you have designed a 1cm position location of stainless steel bottom panel for us, plus perfect hydraulic damper. Good!

  As he said, they requested many samples from other drawer slide guides factories before, but never satisfied. However, both soft closing function and design of our soft closing drawer slides is great. He said that he would recommend us for his friends who are also in bathroom cabinet industry.) He also told us that we do not need to be anxious about the quantity of these soft closing drawer slides we researched and developed for them. Not only they need more than five thousand sets per month, but also as long as the products are put on market, there must be very popular in bathroom cabinet industry.

  Indeed, a month later, already two bathroom cabinet clients asked us for these products.

  Stainless steel bathroom cabinets, another promising project has been born.

橱柜上用什么铰链好？

作者：Cindy

有个做橱柜的国外客户在网上找我， 

他说他是橱柜生产商，问我用什么铰链好。 

我问他，你以前有没用过铰链？

他说，以前用过，是不带缓冲，因为以前用的铰链关门时会砰砰响，客户叫我换铰链，所以想问下用什么铰链好。 

我说，那你就用带缓冲的铰链，就可以解决你关门时砰砰响的这个问题。

我把我们整个铰链的电子目录发给他，然后推介了几款橱柜厂用量比较大的铰链给他，并跟他讲解了每一款的功能及优势。一款是一段力缓冲铰链，一款是二段力缓冲铰链，一款是脱卸缓冲铰链，一款是三维快装缓冲铰链，脱卸缓冲铰链与三维快装缓冲铰链也是可以做成带二段力的功能的。

另外，三维快装缓冲铰链是我们出口给橱柜厂最多的一款，很多国外的橱柜厂，他们说国外的人工很贵，所以用这种三维带偏心调节的缓冲铰链，可以省下很多人工。因为这款橱柜铰链XXXXXXXXXXX，他说，你们的铰链做得真的很全面，什么铰链都有，他说以前都不知有这么多的功能。然后让我每一款都寄了2个样板给他。

客人收到样板后，对我们的质量非常满意，问我们厂以前是不是能参加过国外的XXXX展，他说他好像见过，我说是呀，我们98年以前大部份是出口，所以我们一般都是参国外展，但是98年后，我们开始在国内推广，就开始参国内展。所以在国内的知名度没DTC那么响。

跟客人聊多几次后，他对我们更加的了解，然后，他叫他国内的朋友来我厂也参观过，就爽快的下了几万只的订单，送广州仓走散货。

虽然这个客户的量不是很大，但是我觉得特别是国外客户，他最希望的就是找到诚信可靠的供应商。

如何选择好的钢珠滑轨

作者：梁镜文

昨天，一个朋友家里装修，问我选购家具的滑轨要注意那些方面。现在和大家分享下我的经验。

选择滑轨可以通过以下的行动来进行挑选质量较好的滑轨：

1. 购买钢珠滑轨首先要看滑轨的外观，看产品的表面处理得好不好，有没有生锈的痕迹。 

2. 看钢珠滑轨的顺滑度与结构，将滑轨的固定轨拿住，然后倾斜45度，看能不能自动滑到最尽头（有些尺寸短的滑轨因为重量不足是不能自动滑的，是正常现象），若能滑到最尽头，这个滑轨的顺滑度还是可以的。再将滑轨拉到最尽头，一个手拿住固定轨，另一个手拿住活动轨，左右上下晃动，这样能试出滑轨的结构和做工是否结实，最好是选择晃动较小的滑轨。

3. 看滑轨用的材料的厚度，而我们kav一般使用的材料厚度是1.2/1.2/1.5mm，钢珠滑轨使用的材质基本上都是冷轧钢板，还有不锈钢的材质。选购的时候要按滑轨使用在什么地方来定，像用在浴室柜这类潮湿的地方就最好用不锈钢的滑轨，一般的抽屉用冷轧钢板的滑轨就行了。

4. 滑轨的质量认证（比如SGS可以通过多少次权威质量检测认证）与厂家承诺的安全保障。

这些就是我给大家分享购买钢珠滑轨要注意的，希望大家都可以买到好的钢珠滑轨。

Why SS304 hinge can be absorbed by magnet? (Original)

By Lucy (kav)

All this time, when customers use SS304 furniture hinge, they will have a question that Why SS304 hinge can be absorbed by magnet.

Large scale cupboard hinge factories will choose SS304 or SS201 as raw material to produce stainless steel hinge. However, some hinge factories will use inferior material instead of SS304 material to cheat customers. When choosing stainless steel hinge, customers can’t distinguish it by eyes, so they usually use a magnet to absorb the stainless steel hinge to judge whether it is made of stainless steel material or not.

As a matter of fact, it’s not correct to test whether stainless steel hinge is made of stainless steel material or not.

A hinge consists of many accessories, which are stamping by molds. Raw material is SS304, but stamping molds are iron, so iron will be left during productive process. Moreover, because accessories of hinge are made of anti-rust iron (Notice: the hinge body is made of pure SS304, but other accessories are made of anti-rust iron, because SS304 has strong hardness and is brittle, if used to produce accessories, they will be easy to crack during productive process and in using.), which also can be absorbed by magnet through stainless steel material, so if using a magnet to absorb a stainless steel hinge, it is normal that it can be absorbed by magnet. If the hinge is demagnetized, it can’t be absorbed by magnet, but many factories will don’t demagnetize their stainless steel hinge.

Only SS304 exclusive medicine can judge whether stainless steel hinge is made of SS304 material or not.

Here is a URL for reference: http://v.ku6.com/show/eesiF4B3tY_RCCoa.html?loc=tashangchuan     (Notice: This is an exclusive medicine to test SS304 and can be bought in hardware store)  Drop some exclusive medicine on hinge, if no color change of hinge, it’s made of SS304, if it turns red, it may be made of SS201 or other material.

Actually, customers can choose material of kitchen hinge according to their requirement, for example, SS304 hinge has strong rustproof capacity and normally used under moist condition, such as bathroom cabinet and kitchen cabinet, while anti-rust capacity of SS201 hinge is a little weaker, so SS304 hinge is a little expensive than SS201 hinge.
