Fittings of high-tech to build furniture with light panels
February 4, 2010
During the development of its fittings, Häfele proposed the objective of facilitating when possible access to the construction of furniture with lightweight materials. And this implies that furniture manufacturers could work, as far as possible, using techniques of conventional fittings and the machine-ria and existing procedures. The application of the Häfele fittings for construction with light materials should not assume major investments. An ambitious objective which has been in all the surti-do: from the first Union-body fittings designed for production in series Tab 20 HC, the tools - je of Union for countertops Maxifix 35HC or adhesive cuff Aerofix 100as well as the dorsal wall support and the support for funds that have just been submitted for your application in light panels without basti-dor with 4 mm coating. With them Häfele, pioneer in construction with light materials and engineering innovation expert, you already have a suitable solution for the main tasks of cons-trucción of furniture with lightweight materials.
Support for dorsal wall HC and HC funds support
Newly added to the assortment, the dorsal wall HC support and support for funds HC are diseña-dos for application on light panels without frame with 4 mm coating. The new funds HC support is available in two versions: with screw hidden or visible. It provides unions of great stability between the Fund and the side wall of the Cabinet, and is mounted on the side wall on the rack of drills of 32 mm. The two versions are for insert into drill and screwdriver bits with special screw Varianta HC. The Fund (with or without frame, or solid wood light panel) is placed from the top by inserting it to pressure in a second slot--thus establishes a deformable Union of great stability - dad.
The dorsal wall HC support serves to fix dorsal walls from 2.8 to 3.8 mm of gro-sor on light panels without frame. The dorsal wall support is seized under the lacquering - lie 4 mm, thus preventing the dorsal wall collapse in the honeycomb structure of the Centre. You are assembled without tools.
Aerofix 100 - a product of engineering
An example of the engineering of high level of Häfele, and a real novelty is adhesive cuff Aero-fix 100. Developed in collaboration with the Group of companies Zimmer, it allows the rational preparation of light panels without frame with 4 mm for the automated industrial production coating. This sleeve also eliminates any difficulty to use techniques of conventional fittings in the construction of furniture with light panels.
Aerofix 100 establishes unions of extraordinary stability in the fixing points of the fittings, with values of tear strength comparable to those offered by agglomerate boards convenciona - them (preload of torque 750-950 N). In addition, the adhesive comes perfectly dosed to the places where it is needed: the points of contact of the taco with upper and lower coating layers. Aerofix 100 adhesive does not disappear in the hollow spaces, which saves costs and reduces the environmental impact.
The implementation of the blocks and the adhesive is carried out in a same stage of work, without the need for machine-ria additional e.g. to inject the adhesive later. Why thermoplastic Häfele cartridge is so profitable for manual application like in-dustrial mechanized, and equally interesting for the production and craft.
The only prerequisite is a bore of 10 mm in diameter. Aerofix 100 enters the drill to pressure and is flush with the surface. Once hardened adhesive taco, any fittings can be mounted and set safely. The nuts and bolts of Union tighten directly after entering the fittings, which can be fully loaded past 16 hours.
Häfele continues to expand the areas of implementation of the innovative adhesive cuff: Aerofix 100 is now available for thickness of wood 25, 28, 30, 32, 34, 38, 40, 50 and 60 mm.
