Automatic Riveting Machine FAQ
What materials can be joined with a Desheng Automatic Riveting Machine?
Our Automatic Riveting Machines are highly versatile and can effectively join a wide range of materials including various metals (steel, aluminum, copper), plastics, and composite materials, making them suitable for diverse industrial applications.
How does orbital riveting minimize material stress and deformation?
Orbital riveting from Desheng uses a specialized peen tool that applies a localized, orbital forming pressure. This process smoothly and progressively displaces the material, rather than impacting it, which significantly reduces internal stress, prevents cracking, and produces a superior cosmetic finish.
Can your machines be integrated into a fully automated production line?
Absolutely. Desheng Automatic Riveting Machines are designed with integration in mind. They feature standard communication protocols (like Ethernet/IP or Profinet) and interfaces for robotic loaders/unloaders, allowing for seamless connectivity within a smart, automated manufacturing cell.
Staying ahead of technology trends is crucial for maintaining a competitive edge in manufacturing. By adopting the latest in Orbital and Radial Riveting technology, you can significantly enhance your product quality and operational efficiency. Desheng is committed to providing state-of-the-art Automatic Riveting Machine solutions that are reliable, precise, and future-proof.
