For a VIP completion project, we have developed an extraordinary tambour door mechanism. The particular challenge was that the roller shutters were made of leather and, due to the low guide profile, the rollers were directly connected to the leather.
At the same time, smooth and synchronous running behavior had to be ensured, as seven roller shutters are operated individually or synchronously in the master bedroom of the aircraft.

The electric cabinet door mechanism operates two sliding doors of a VIP drink bar shelf at the same time. The shelf doors are automatically locked in the end position. This will ensure that the doors stay in place. In addition to mechanical safety measures, the system also has electrical safety measures such as overload protection, anti-trap protection, manual override, and speed control.
