OVVO’s growing range of invisible connectors sees addition of glue-less 6mm dowel

OVVO continues to expand its range of wood joining connectors, leading the way in furniture ‘tools-free’ assembly components, making life easier for consumers and end-users, and delivering a more profitable and efficient solution for manufacturers.

OVVO products are a range of cleverly engineered, award-winning, invisible connectors that make joining wood simple. The connectors are installed during the manufacturing process so the end-user can simply click/push together cabinets, shop fit-out components, door frame assemblies or furniture without the need for tools, screws, or glues.

The result is an accessible, sustainable product that saves time, money and effort for consumers and manufacturers alike. Manufacturers can also benefit from significantly reduced shipping costs, as items can be shipped flat-packed.

The latest addition to the OVVO product family of dowels is the 6mm x 40mm version, namely the OD640 which is specifically designed to work in standard 6mm drill patterns. The OD640 is inserted into the panel without any glue to form a permanent joint in as thin as 12mm panels. These new connectors make it even easier for manufacturers to incorporate OVVO into their standard processes, saving time and money by eliminating glue and case clamping time. No additional equipment or capital is needed to deliver tools-free assembly products to the end customer.

 This new self-clamping, glue-less, invisible OVVO Dowel (OD640) is designed for connecting cabinet parts and all types of furniture using standard drilled holes on both sides of the joint, thereby simplifying the panel processing operations while continuing to provide all of the benefits of OVVOs’ proven tools-free ‘Push-Click-Connect’ assembly methodology.

 All OVVO connectors are designed for high-volume, automatic insertion, and ongoing partnerships with leading machine vendors such as Pro-Edge Technology and software providers Cabinet Vision, TopSolid, iFurn, Swood and Cabinet Sense ensure that manufacturers can easily incorporate OVVO into their existing processes, and also into new product design and development. The PET CNC OVVO is the only machine in the industry with insertion capabilities for all OVVO connectors.

 All OVVO connectors can be installed into a variety of materials ranging from high-quality hardwoods to low-grade particle board, and the company’s recyclable plastic means any waste is put back into the production of its product.

OVVO works best in boards >12mm thickness and is available in a range of sizes to perfectly match your requirements. All connector sizes are available in both permanent and releasable options, extending the range of materials and opportunities to inspire creative design and innovative development.
