1. Client Consultation & Requirement Confirmation

Every cabinet manufacturing process begins with a thorough consultation. Our sales and design teams collect:

     1、Exact kitchen dimensions (via floor plan or on-site measurement)

     2、Style preferences (modern, Scandinavian, classic, American, etc.)

     3、Material & color choices (PET, lacquer, melamine, plywood, solid wood, etc.)

     4、Functional needs (storage layout, island design, built-in appliances)

Designers then translate these details into 2D layouts and 3D renderings, helping clients visualize how their drawings become finished cabinets before production starts.

2. Material & Hardware Selection

The choice of materials is critical in the cabinet manufacturing process because it determines both durability and eco-friendliness:

     1、E0/E1 plywood: Excellent moisture resistance and structural stability

     2、Particleboard: A cost-effective solution for large-scale projects

     3、Solid wood: Premium texture ideal for luxury residences

For hardware, AIS recommends world-class brands such as Hettich and Blum to ensure long life, smooth operation, and consistent quality from drawings to finished cabinets.

3. Precision Cutting with CNC Machines

Once the design is approved, panels are cut using CNC cutting machines:

     1、Accuracy within ±0.5mm tolerance

     2、Automatic nesting software to maximize material usage

     3、Edge protection to reduce chipping and guarantee smooth finishes

This step demonstrates how the cabinet manufacturing process turns technical designs into tangible components.

4. Edge Banding

Edge banding seals the panels against moisture and damage:

     1、Standard banding: Hot-melt glue with PVC strips

     2、Laser edge banding: Seamless, moisture-proof, and with a premium finish

Laser edge banding technology ensures the transition from design drawings to finished cabinets looks flawless.

5. Drilling & Grooving

Holes for hinges and grooves for back panels are drilled according to design specifications, ensuring structural stability and precision assembly. This step ensures that what began as a drawing evolves into a cabinet ready for finishing.

6. Hardware Installation & Pre-Assembly

To guarantee accuracy:

     1、Hinges, slides, and handles are installed

     2、Cabinets are pre-assembled to check squareness and alignment

     3、Doors and drawers are tested for smooth operation

This stage is essential in the cabinet manufacturing process because it validates that every element functions correctly before final delivery.

7. Quality Inspection

Each cabinet undergoes a strict multi-point inspection:

     1、Dimensional measurement

     2、Surface inspection (no scratches or color differences)

     3、Function testing for hinges, doors, and drawers

     4、Edge band adhesion check

Through this quality assurance, we ensure that drawings to finished cabinets is not just a phrase, but a proven process backed by rigorous checks.

8. Packaging & Shipping

Finally, cabinets are carefully packed for safe shipping:

     1、Multi-layer protection: EPE foam + corner protectors + thick cartons + wooden frames

     2、Moisture-proof wrapping for export orders

     3、Clear “fragile” labeling for international logistics

This final step closes the loop in the cabinet manufacturing process, ensuring every piece travels securely from factory to project site—completing the journey from drawings to finished cabinets.

Conclusion

The cabinet manufacturing process is a carefully managed journey where detailed design drawings are transformed into finished, functional, and beautiful cabinets. By combining advanced technology, premium materials, and strict quality checks, AIS ensures that every project achieves excellence—from the first sketch to the final installation.
