Custom Furniture Metal Fittings Slide Rail Stamping And Feeding Line

Solving Pain Points in Furniture Drawer Slides Production: 

In the fiercely competitive furniture industry, drawer slides, as core functional components, their precision, strength, and production efficiency directly determine an enterprise's core competitiveness. The traditional manual feeding mode faces multiple pain points such as difficulty in handling wide and thick materials, high risk of heavy coil operation, and insufficient precision control, which can no longer meet the needs of modern production. A large furniture accessory manufacturing enterprise urgently needed an exclusive solution. Lihao accurately identified the demand and tailor-made the NCBF-1300B 3-in-1 Sheet Metal Coil Feeding and Stamping Line (Uncoiler, Leveler, Feeder) to solve production challenges with extreme adaptability.

This equipment is custom-designed for furniture drawer slides production, perfectly matching the harsh operating conditions of material width 1300mm, thickness 4.5mm, and single coil weight 10000KG. The precise design of the roller with inner diameter 508mm and outer diameter 1600mm seamlessly fits the coil specifications; the uncoiler adopting hydraulic expansion provides stable and uniform expansion force, ensuring a smooth and impact-free uncoiling process of 10-ton heavy coils. It fundamentally avoids problems such as material wrinkling and damage, laying a solid foundation for the consistency and high precision of drawer slide products.

Advantages of a customized 3-in-1 stamping feeding system for uncoiling, straightening, and feeding machines:

1. Integrated Intelligent Control, Minimal Operation Threshold

The NCBF-1300B subverts the traditional multi-area operation mode of equipment, highly integrating all processes such as uncoiling, leveling, and feeding into the PLC intelligent control system + portable knob. Operators do not need to run back and forth, and can control all movement functions of the equipment at a fixed workstation. The concise and clear control logic not only eliminates the risk of misoperation due to multiple buttons but also shortens the equipment commissioning and production switching time by 50%. New employees can work independently after 1 day of training, greatly reducing the enterprise's labor costs and operation threshold.

2. Dual Drive of Efficiency and Safety, Two-way Upgrade of Production Capacity and Safety

Comprehensive replacement of repetitive manual labor such as manual feeding and supporting with automated mechanical actions, the production efficiency of a single batch is increased by more than 30%, completely getting rid of the efficiency bottleneck of manual operation; at the same time, the all-round auxiliary protection design and long-distance control mode keep operators away from heavy coils and stamping dangerous areas, fundamentally eliminating safety accidents such as pinching and crushing. Targeting the characteristics of 10000KG heavy coils, the hydraulic expansion system is combined with intelligent tension control technology to ensure a stable and precise whole process of uncoiling and feeding, effectively guaranteeing the dimensional accuracy of drawer slide products and significantly reducing the defect rate.

3. Free Switching Between Dual Main Controls, Adapting to Diversified Production Scenarios

Understanding the production needs of furniture manufacturing enterprises for multi-equipment linkage and multi-process switching, the NCBF-1300B supports free switching between punch main control and equipment main control. Without additional modification, it can quickly adapt to different types of punches, realizing flexible deployment of production resources, greatly improving the versatility and adaptability of the equipment, helping enterprises save investment in new equipment, maximize the use of existing production resources, and reduce comprehensive production costs.

4. Compact Layout Saves Space, Doubling Plant Utilization Rate

On the premise of meeting the demand for processing 1300mm wide materials, the NCBF-1300B inherits the core advantage of Lihao NCBF series "strong function and excellent volume", adopting an integrated design. Compared with traditional split-type equipment, the floor space is saved by more than 40%. The compact and reasonable layout design allows small and medium-sized furniture accessory enterprises to achieve production capacity upgrade in limited plant space, indirectly reducing plant rental and renovation costs and optimizing the production site planning.

5. Mitsubishi Control System, Stable, Compatible and More Precise

Equipped with a complete set of Japanese Mitsubishi control system, it not only operates stably and reliably with low failure rate but also has global universal compatibility, fully complying with various manufacturing standards at home and abroad. Customers do not need to worry about data docking, format conversion and other issues, and can directly connect to the existing production line for use; at the same time, the high-precision control capability of the Mitsubishi system ensures that the feeding accuracy error is controlled within ±0.03mm, perfectly meeting the strict requirements of furniture drawer slides for dimensional accuracy and greatly improving the product qualification rate.

6. Empowered by Industrial Design, More Comfortable Operation Experience

As the first 3-in-1 feeding system in the industry to introduce industrial design, the NCBF-1300B has achieved a double breakthrough in appearance and practicality. The optimized equipment layout makes the key operation areas clear at a glance. The humanized operation height and perspective design effectively reduce the fatigue of operators working for a long time; the concise and atmospheric appearance style perfectly integrates with the modern industrial plant environment, not only improving the operation comfort but also highlighting the enterprise's high-end manufacturing strength and adding points to the overall image of the workshop.

Customer Feedback:

"The NCBF-1300B is completely suitable for our furniture drawer slides production needs! It handles 1300mm wide and 4.5mm thick materials with ease. The uncoiling of 10-ton heavy coils is stable, and the hydraulic expansion system is very reliable. Automated operation not only increases production efficiency by nearly 40% but also reduces the product defect rate from the original 5% to less than 1%, and completely solves the safety hazards of manual operation. Moreover, the equipment occupies much less space than expected. The control method of PLC and portable knob is very convenient. Employees can work independently after 1 day of training. It is a key equipment for our production capacity upgrade. Choosing LIHAO customized solution is very wise!"
