Custom Shower Door Manufacturing Process
Ever wondered what goes into making a sleek, sturdy shower door? It’s a fascinating manufacturing process that combines precision, skill, and a bit of artistry. Let’s take a closer look at how a shower door is crafted from start to finish.
Schritt 1: Design and Planning
The process begins with creating a precise design based on client specifications. This design and prototyping outlines dimensions, materials, and features, serving as a blueprint for the manufacturing process.
Schritt 2: Material Selection
High-quality materials are selected to ensure durability and aesthetics. Tempered glass is commonly used for its strength and safety. Metal components, like stainless steel or brass, are chosen for their resilience and visual appeal.
Schritt 3: Cutting and Shaping the Glass
The glass is cut to the specified dimensions using advanced machinery, ensuring precision. Edges are polished for safety and appearance, and any custom shapes or holes needed for hardware are created during this stage.
Schritt 4: Tempering the Glass
The cut glass undergoes tempering, a process that strengthens it by heating and rapid cooling. This makes the glass safer, as it shatters into small, less dangerous pieces if broken. After post tempering, the glass is inspected for any defects.
Kangjian Highlights:
1. Explosion-Proof Technology
Safety is a priority, and Kangjian Sanitaryware uses advanced explosion proof technology to make the glass even safer. This technology lowers the risk of sharp fragments if the glass ever breaks. It’s a significant improvement over regular tempered glass, which might still create sharp splinters.
2.Self-cleaning nanotechnology
We also introduce Nano glass technology, which adds a self-cleaning feature to the glass. This means fewer water stains and a surface that stays looking fresh and clean for longer. Regular tempered glass often holds onto water stains, which can lead to bacteria buildup, but Nano glass helps keep things more hygienic with less effort.
Schritt 5: Fabricating the Hardware
Meanwhile, the metal hardware is cut and shaped. Surface treatments like polishing or coating enhance durability and finish. The hardware is partially assembled and tested to fit the glass properly.
Note:
1. At Kangjian Sanitaryware, the journey starts with selecting top-notch aluminum (6063 & 6064) from trusted suppliers.
2. This high-quality aluminum is then shaped and cut using CNC auto cutting and grooving machines. These advanced machines work alongside our talented team to create precise and well crafted components like frames, Griffe, and other hardware.
Schritt 6: Assembly
The glass panels are fitted with the necessary hardware components. Rubber seals and gaskets are added to make the door watertight. The assembly is then tested to ensure smooth operation and correct alignment.
All-round Quality Tests of Shower Enclosures
Quality control in shower doors is essential for safety, reliability, and durability, which directly impacts the overall user experience. These are the specific practices we use to maintain high standards during quality control.
Schritt 1: Push-and-pull Functionality Test
To assess the durability of glass shower doors, a push-and-pull functionality test is conducted. This involves 20,000 cycles of repetitive pushing and pulling with the door 70% open, so that the mechanism operates smoothly.
Schritt 2: Salt Spray Test
The salt spray test examines the corrosion resistance of hardware. The shower door undergoes 48 hours of exposure to a 5% salt solution, showing its ability to resist rust and deterioration.
Schritt 3: Impact Test
An impact test determines the strength of toughened glass shower doors or panels. The test involves simulating a 50-kg impact to check if the glass can withstand the force without breaking.
Schritt 4: Toughened Glass Safety Test
To ensure safety, the toughened glass is tested by knocking on a spot. The glass shatters into more than 40 small, non sharp pieces within a 50mm x 50mm area, minimizing the risk of injury.
Schritt 5: Bearing Test
The bearing test evaluates the strength of the glass in a shower enclosure. The glass is subjected to a 250N load for 2 hours while being lifted 25mm against the wall. The test checks for any permanent deformation (limited to 3mm) and water leakage.
Step6: Sealing Property Test
For the sealing property test, the shower enclosure undergoes 10 minutes of spray testing on both the surface and bottom. This test identifies any potential leakage in the shower room.
Tips for Checking the Quality of Your Shower Doors
We believe that quality shower doors should withstand strict inspection. Feel free to conduct a detailed inspection after receiving the goods. Please see the detailed steps below.
Schritt 1: Packaging Inspection
When dealers or wholesalers receive shower doors, whether sliding or frameless, checking the packaging is crucial.
The packaging should protect the components and the surface from damage. Proper wrapping helps prevent breakage during delivery. A well-sealed and undamaged package indicates careful handling by the manufacturer.
If the packaging appears bent or dented, contact your supplier.
Schritt 2: Parts Check
After confirming the packaging’s condition, checking the individual parts of the frameless shower door is next.
- Glas: The glass is the star of the show when it comes to shower doors. It’s important to spot any cracks or defects early on. Laminated glass often has an EVA layer between the surfaces, so that’s something to check too.
- Frame: The frame gives the shower door its strength. Stainless steel frames should be straight, free from rust, and in good shape. Any bends or rust might mean a bit of extra attention is needed.
- Pull Rod: In frameless shower doors, the pull rod plays a big role in holding everything together. Having the pull rod in good condition helps everything fit perfectly.
- Handle: Handles are all about making the shower door easy to use. A handle in good condition, included in the package, is something to feel good about.
- Roller for Sliding Doors: Rollers are what make sliding shower doors glide smoothly. Checking their condition helps keep things running smoothly from the start.
- Hinges and Pivots: Hinges and pivots are the unsung heroes of swing and frameless shower doors. They help with stability and add a nice touch. Making sure they work properly can save a lot of trouble later.
- Base: The base is like the foundation of the shower door. It keeps everything stable and helps with water flow. A base that’s in good condition and fits well with the door type is always a plus.
- Bracket: Brackets help keep everything in place, supporting the shower door by securing parts to the wall. Good brackets mean a sturdy, reliable setup.
- Duschwanne: The shower tray keeps water flowing in the right direction and helps protect the metal parts from rust. Having it in place and set up correctly is a nice final touch.
