2012 furniture hardware product development trend

With the prosperity of the furniture industry, the furniture hardware industry will also enter a more perfect new field, develop new products with high-tech content, and satisfy people's needs for high-quality living materials.

Looking back on the development process of several typical furniture hardware products in the country in recent years

1. Dark door hinges.

The earliest hinge is the outer spring dumpling chain. This hinge has some drawbacks: a. The outer spring piece is easy to get rid of the person; b, the hinge cup is plastic injection molded, very weak; c, when the door is closed, Impacts, especially glass doors, can occur; d, the aging of the hinge cup greatly affects its service life. After the development of the inner spring hinge, it avoids the problem of spring detachment, but still does not solve the impact when closing the door. The two-stage force hinge developed in the last one or two years, the hinge cup is changed into steel or alloy, completely avoiding the above problems, and can be stopped at any position. Only when the closure is closed to the last 15° or so, the spring starts to function, and the door is gently closed. The service life is more than 100,000 times.

2, door accessories.

The earliest is a simple trick. The wheels are directly injection molded. The track is also extruded. The adjustment is also extremely unfavorable. There will be noise during use, and the plastic will easily age and affect the life. It is replaced by A bearing replaces the plastic wheel, which reduces the noise, but is insufficient in carrying capacity and cannot be installed on the large wardrobe door. Further, a heavy-duty suspension door has been developed, which is in terms of noise and load-bearing. With great improvements, it is light, smooth and noise-free, and it is comparable to imported quality products.

3. Drawer slides.

The earliest furniture is no need for slide rails. When used, it is powerful, loud, and easy to slip out, posing a danger. Today's furniture is generally used with bottom drawer slides, which are smooth, lightweight, and can be automatically closed to prevent outward sliding. The developed styles include ball slides, side rails, and bottom hidden rails.

The three examples listed above fully illustrate the development level of China's furniture hardware accessories. Generally, ordinary furniture hardware accessories can completely replace the imported hardware accessories, but the functional accessories with high technical content have yet to be developed.

The future furniture hardware industry will have a new revolution and upgrade

1. Cooperate to develop new products.

Following the development of the society, customers at home and abroad have put forward higher requirements for furniture products. The styles and requirements put forward by customers are likely to have no matching furniture hardware. In order to meet the requirements of customers, it is necessary for the furniture hardware company to cooperate in the development of new furniture products. Furniture manufacturers and furniture hardware manufacturers work together to make full use of the design, technology and equipment advantages of both parties to form a new format. The simultaneous design, simultaneous manufacturing and joint debugging of furniture hardware and new furniture make the most popular social resources. Good configuration.

Modern information technology also provides a platform for information exchange and technical coordination for the joint development of new furniture hardware products. Modern digital technology also provides technical support for fast and accurate manufacturing. Cooperative development not only satisfied the special needs of the furniture company, but also increased the product variety for the furniture hardware company, promoted the product quality, and made the furniture company and the furniture hardware company win-win. In the current social context, the cooperation between furniture manufacturers and furniture manufacturers is particularly important. Through cooperation and development, the mutual cooperation between design and development staff of the two parties becomes a kind of alliance, and complementing the gap can face the market with stronger advantages.

2. The integration of appearance and function.

Furniture hardware is divided into two categories: decorative hardware and functional hardware.

Many furniture hardware manufacturers invisibly separate the two, decorative hardware does not pay attention to functional development, functional hardware is insufficient for its decorative development research, and there is a disconnect between the two. Taking the Tuen Mun accessories as an example, the functions and structures have been continuously improved and improved over the years, but they do not pay attention to the same decoration. Although many products are very useful, they do not look pleasing to the eye. In recent years, with the advancement of the level of design, many designers are paying attention to furniture hardware, and reviewing furniture hardware with the concept of industrial design, so that the appearance and function of furniture hardware are better integrated is the development of furniture hardware. trend.

3. Humanized design.

Advances in the quality of life, the quality of every detail in life will also be noticed. Furniture hardware best reflects the quality of the details of the life. Opening and closing of the cabinet door, opening and closing of the drawer... Excellent furniture hardware can embody the humane-oriented humane principle in these daily actions. The humane concept of safety, labor, silence, quietness and so on will be further integrated into the development and design of furniture hardware. This is also an inevitable requirement of social development.

4. The use of high technology.

For many years, furniture hardware has not been adequately regarded as a supporting role in the furniture industry, resulting in a large gap between the functionality of our furniture hardware and foreign products. How to improve versatility, interchangeability, advocate people-oriented, pay attention to safety, convenience, environmental protection, fast, make products perfect and so on, we also need to constantly strive to develop and enterprising. Analysis of foreign products, we can find that the new technology, new technology, new materials are incorporated into Guoniang furniture hardware. To improve the level of China's furniture hardware, only accelerate the use of high-tech in the industry. At present, universities in the country have listed furniture hardware as a research topic focusing on the development of functions and appearance. With the rapid development of the furniture industry and huge market demand, the use of high-tech furniture hardware will continue to come out. We hope, and believe that in the near future, China's furniture hardware manufacturers can provide hardware manufacturers with lower prices, better effects and more convenient installation, which can improve the efficiency and reduce the cost for furniture manufacturers.

5. The innovation of the business model.

Following the development of China's industrial technology, furniture production has evolved from the previous hand workshop to the current mechanized mass production. Hardware accessories have higher requirements for versatility, interchangeability, functionality and decoration. Diversification of substrates, structural reforms and increased use of functions, the role of furniture hardware in furniture is no longer just the connection of decorative and departmental flow components, its functionality is getting stronger and stronger, and the fields involved are becoming wider and wider. . Luo Baihui analyzed that for furniture manufacturers, it is particularly important to improve production efficiency, reduce capital, improve product quality, enhance the competitiveness of domestic and overseas markets, and increase efficiency.

6. Transforming from the common products to the customized products, closer to the customers, creating value-added products and services.

In the furniture hardware industry, many furniture hardware manufacturers lack contact with end customers, and rely too much on retailers to obtain information on customers' expectations. Furniture hardware manufacturing must learn how to approach end customers, how to provide products for them, and ensure that they make a profit. This requires better marketing capabilities, better sales networks, lean manufacturing and flexible manufacturing capabilities, immediate supply chain operations, supply chain management, innovative thinking and leadership, better education and training for employees, etc. Wait, in short, a new business model.

From a manufacturing perspective, the plant must be as automated as possible to achieve maximum productivity and improved labor productivity. Therefore, it is necessary to adopt new technologies and lean manufacturing to reduce costs; at the same time, it is necessary to increase investment in workers' education and training, new product development and research, so as to cultivate workers with special skills and create Premium products, sell for a good price. If we inherit the products of the pre-market category and provide low-level services, then we will continue to lose the market and give the labor to a more productive and cheaper region.

7. Establish a relevant upper-level center or a competitive advantage.

According to Mike Porter's definition in "Competition Theory", agglomeration refers to a group of close and interconnected companies on the mantle. They have synergistic institutions in specific areas, linked through common interests and complementarities, through supply. Chain development strategy partners, all links of the entire supply chain work together, so that resources are most effectively integrated and utilized.

In order to improve the clarity of the pattern and the photosensitive paste the uniform distribution of the screen surface, the drying process should ensure that no dust pollution around, and should be operating in the darkroom or yellow light. Place the screen frame, printed side up, keep the screen level. Dust free fan drying, but in order to speed up the drying speed drying box (Note: the maximum temperature must not exceed 40 ° C).

Scratch coating layer is fully dry, wet surface will affect the light sensitivity of the photosensitive paste must be done before the exposure. Not completely dry, there will be underexposed

 

Drying operation guide:
1) The third scratch coating method, each coated once must achieve sufficient drying of a coating, otherwise, make moisture caught in the middle of the photosensitive layer.
2) If possible, should be kept to a constant indoor temperature. If the indoor humidity to extend the exposure time, especially in the summer, if not lower humidity device, should pay special attention to this point. In fact, the cost of installing lower humidity device is not too high

3) often used in the industrial drying machine (maximum temperature 40 ° C), especially in the more humid environment. Must know, however, that the expansion due to heating causes the screen frame chromatic inconvenience that is difficult to achieve chromatic accurate. Therefore, in order to ensure that the chromatic accurate, all wire mesh and network box must be dried in the same environment. And they should be allowed to return to room temperature before making an exposure.
4) of the operating environment, should the exposure, dry place with the screen frame making cleaning separately, because more humid in the production of wire mesh and cleaning area
