ClinchRivet® Technology – The answer to many joining issues

Ingeniously simple

In the case of the patented ClinchRivet®, the actual rivet connection is made using a simple cylindrical rivet in a joining process utilizing a drawing/pressing method. Just like the TOX®-Round Joint, the materials to be joined are not cut, but formed inside the die cavity.

The special advantage of this ClinchRivet® is its simple and symmetrical rivet. This provides for a trouble-free feeding and pressing operation. The materials to be joined gain an additional retaining member. A clean and highly repeatable joint is created. Its Multipoint capability increases the cost advantages.

Due to the filling of the clinched joint with the ClinchRivet®, the strength of the joint increases considerably, and especially the shear strength. The ClinchRivet® is especially appropriate for use with thin sheet metals.

Advantages

symmetrical rivet geometry, thus jam-free feeding and high productivity
excellent electrical conductivity
resistant to corrosion
simple quality control by measuring the "X" dimension
no cutting of the punch or die side sheet metals
no mechanical notch effect, high dynamic capability
no damage to surface coating
no slugs produced during process

ClinchRivet® Monitoring

Using the TOX®-Monitoring system for Force-Travel-Measurements helps to maintain the TOX®-ClinchRivet process consistently, thereby, guaranteeing a constant production quality.

Process Sequence

All technological characteristics and quality criteria of the TOX®-Round Joint also apply to the ClinchRivet®.
