Faucet structure anatomy

 

 

 

From the anatomical diagram of the faucet structure, see the innovative technology of the faucet valve body.

 

Faucet casting technology

The casting process uses more materials and the water outlet cavity is relatively rough.

 

Faucet forging technology

Forging technology uses less materials and has stronger physical properties than casting.

 

Internal welding process of faucet valve body

The valve body is divided into three or four parts, the internal water channels are connected with copper pipes, and then welded into one. The appearance and quality are not much different from the forging process.

The faucet valve body split welding process divides the valve body into two parts: the outer shell and the valve core seat. The outer shell and the valve core seat are forged and fixed together by welding after machining. This process applies forging technology to the extreme. It makes the valve body have the quality of forging and the price of casting.

The faucet cold extrusion valve body process divides the valve body into two parts: the outer shell and the valve core seat. The outer shell adopts the copper tube cold extrusion process, and the valve core seat adopts the forging process.

 

Zinc clad copper valve body process

The valve body shell is made of zinc alloy material + copper valve core seat. The valve core, valve core seat and shell are fixed together by the valve core pressure cap. The machining requirements are very high, and a slight misalignment can easily shorten the service life of the valve core.
