I only see Tandem mentioned, not Tandembox plus. The Tandembox plus is no longer available. It was replaced by the Tandembox Antaro. Maximera is similar to the Tandembox Antaro but, unlike the RATIONELL drawers, has a completely different box height.
The cabinet slides, as with the RATIONELL, have a nominal length of 530 mm (21 inches), which does not exist as a Blum standard. The holes for mounting the slides are also in different positions.
Tip-On does not work with the BLUMOTION slides, and for the new Tip-On with soft-close, special slides are also required. Until now, this was only available for the Legrabox; according to Blum’s website, it will soon be available for the Tandembox as well.
For Maximera, there are only the UTRUSTA push-to-open fittings or the electric Blum Servodrives. I believe Robiffm has used the UTRUSTA push-to-open fittings with drawers, and that is supposed to work.

Hello Ikea expert,
thank you very much for the detailed response.
So, on my newly installed Maximera drawers, the slides are labeled "TANDEMBOX plus 30" and on the larger ones "TANDEMBOX plus 50." That’s why I searched for Tipp On and came across the different solutions for Tandembox plus. Still, the "new" Blum Tandembox plus slides seem to look different.
Hmm. Yes, I will try the Utrusta openers. There are also the Besta push door openers from IKEA. Maybe those would work as well.
Best regards,
Christoph

IKEA-Experte29 Jul 2016 13:33The drawer slides have not changed between Tandembox plus and Antaro. For IKEA, there is an OEM version with a clip-on damper, while the standard Blum versions have integrated dampers.
30 and 50 indicate the maximum load capacity of the cabinet slides (30 kg (66 lbs), 50 kg (110 lbs)). This capacity is reduced in MAXIMERA due to the 13 mm (0.5 inch) thick bottoms. For Tandembox, 16 mm (0.6 inch) thick bottoms are specified.
BESTA push-to-open devices differ from UTRUSTA BLUMOTION only in the mounting bracket.

Okay, if they are the same and mine already says Tandembox Plus, then the tip-on modules linked above for clip-on installation should fit, right? At least the description says they are ONLY suitable for Tandembox Plus.
Has anyone tried this before? Otherwise, I’ll just order them and can always return them if necessary.
