Why do cushioning hydraulic hinges quickly lose their cushioning effect? _Hinge knowledge 1

In recent times, there has been an increasing demand from online users to consult our factory regarding hinge-related issues. During these communications, we discovered that many customers have been experiencing problems with the cushioning hydraulic hinge, specifically its quick loss of cushioning effect. They have been curious to know how the hinges in our factory perform in terms of cushioning.

This is a problem that most individuals can relate to. Some people may have spent a substantial amount of money on hinges, only to realize that the purchased ones offer the same or even worse damping effect compared to ordinary hinges. Since hinges are opened and closed numerous times in our daily lives, their quality plays a crucial role in the overall performance of furniture. A hydraulic hinge that closes doors automatically and silently not only creates a harmonious and warm atmosphere for homeowners, but also adds a touch of sophistication to furniture and kitchen cabinets. With an affordable price tag of just a few yuan, hydraulic hinges have become widely popular.

However, this popularity has led to increased competition among manufacturers, resulting in a cut-throat market environment. In order to secure their share of the market, some manufacturers have resorted to cutting corners and producing hinges with subpar materials. Consequently, quality issues have become inevitable. Shockingly, some manufacturers neglect to conduct quality inspections on their hydraulic hinges before releasing them to the market. Consumers have been deceived by such products and are left disappointed, saying they won't be purchasing these hinges again.

The main reason for the loss of cushioning effect in hydraulic hinges is due to oil leakage from the seal ring of the hydraulic cylinder, which leads to the failure of the cylinder itself. However, it is worth noting that the quality of hydraulic hinges has significantly improved over the years through consistent efforts (excluding those that are produced by manufacturers who compromise on quality). Both their functionality and durability have seen substantial enhancements. Opting for a reputable manufacturer of hydraulic hinges still remains a great way to elevate the overall quality and sophistication of furniture.

But how do you choose the right hydraulic hinge to ensure you don't end up in a regrettable situation? The buffer hydraulic hinge, which harnesses the cushioning properties of liquid to provide an ideal buffer effect, has had a profound impact on individuals seeking to create warm, harmonious, and safe homes. Its humane, soft, and silent nature, coupled with its resistance to pinching, has attracted countless admirers.

With the growing number of users, there has been a surge in the number of manufacturers entering the market. However, this surge has also brought about an influx of substandard products. Many consumers have complained that the hydraulic function of these hinges quickly deteriorates after a short period of use. Some of them are even indistinguishable from ordinary hinges within a few months, which is quite disheartening. This situation mirrors the scenario with alloy hinges a few years back. Hinges made from scrap materials would break when screws were tightened, leading many loyal alloy hinge consumers to shift their focus to sturdier iron hinges. Ultimately, the market for alloy hinges dwindled. Therefore, I would like to caution manufacturers of buffer hydraulic hinges not to sacrifice long-term customer satisfaction for short-term profits. In a world of information asymmetry, where consumers struggle to differentiate between good and bad quality, it is the responsibility of manufacturers to ensure the quality of their products, leading to a win-win situation for the market and profits.

As the quality of hydraulic pressure hinges heavily relies on the effectiveness of piston sealing, it becomes difficult for consumers to distinguish these factors in a short period of time. To choose a high-quality buffer hydraulic hinge, pay attention to these factors:

1. Appearance: Manufacturers with mature technology will prioritize the appearance of their products, ensuring that lines and surfaces are handled with care. The hinges should have minimal scratches and no deep dug marks. These are the hallmark features of powerful manufacturers.

2. Consistent door closing speed: Observe whether the buffer hydraulic hinge feels stuck or produces any strange sounds. It is also important to check for significant differences in closing speeds, as this may indicate a discrepancy in hydraulic cylinder selection.

3. Rust resistance: The ability to resist rust can be assessed through a salt spray test. High-quality hinges should rarely exhibit signs of rust after 48 hours.

However, it is crucial not to be deceived by claims such as "tested over 200,000 times for opening and closing" or "passed the 48-hour salt spray test." Many profit-driven manufacturers release their products to the market without conducting any tests. Therefore, consumers often encounter hinges that lose their cushioning function after only a few hundred uses. Beware of such fraudulent practices. With the current level of domestic technological advancement, achieving a fatigue test of 100,000 opening and closing cycles is quite challenging. The hinges produced by domestic manufacturers can realistically withstand around 30,000 opening and closing cycles, anything beyond that is a stretch.

Additionally, when you receive the hydraulic hinge, you can forcefully accelerate the closing speed or forcefully close the cabinet door rather than letting it close by itself. This will help you identify poor-quality cushioning hydraulic hinges. Low-quality hinges may close very quickly, exhibit oil leakage from the hydraulic cylinder, or, worst-case scenario, even explode. If you encounter any of these situations, it's time to bid farewell to that particular buffer hydraulic hinge.
