SLIDING DOOR BLANKS
Basic structure of a lightweight sliding door blank
The VOMO lightweight sliding door blanks are divided into two product categories based on the dimensions. The ST 13 includes sliding doors up to a width of 1,300 mm, while the ST 19 variant can be manufactured in widths of up to 1,900 mm. This division has proven to be sensible based on many years of production experience. The dimensions of the cover material, waste optimisation and the optimisation of machine utilisation were the decisive factors in these analyses.
As with all VOMO products, the basic structure of the ST 13 and ST 19 sliding door blanks consists of a honeycomb core, the corresponding support decks and decorative decks as well as the board-on-frame frame material. This basic structure ensures maximum dimensional stability, especially for large formats, and is the basis for the high weight reduction compared to conventional materials.
Board on frame –
the right framework
conditions
The frame material introduced during the production process is already customised to the needs of the processing customer in advance. Each standard blank in the VOMO ST series is always provided with double frames in the transverse edges as well as prepared inserts to facilitate subsequent processing by the customer for handles and locks if prior customisation is not desired.
Sliding door blanks
inserts and frames
VOMO already includes post-processing options in the basic setting of the basic blanks. Double frames on the top/bottom edges provide material for processing both the vertical and horizontal edge areas. Additional inserts for handle recess milling or lock case processing are already pressed into the element in the same way as the mirror.

One-sided or double-sided handle shell millings are made inthe selected sliding door blank on the basis of the selected shell handle.
PREPARATIONS FOR BAR HANDLES
Based on the desired customer article and the specification for position and height, all necessary pre-drilling and milling is already carried out.

LOCK CASE / LOCK HANDLE
Here too, processing is based on customer data and is adapted to the individually selected hardware items and their specifications.
PREPARATION FOR TROLLEY
The sliding door blank is customised to match the desired trolley fitting. The processing basis here is the data of the selected fitting and its specification.
MILLED FLOOR GROOVE
Fitting-specific groove depths and widths are realised in the desired design (exposed / milled through). This makes it easy to adapt to selected hardware and guide systems.
