AI Technical Summary
Existing riveting machines face challenges in achieving large travel distances for the upper die, particularly in aeronautical applications where obstacles are present, leading to the need for larger jack systems that increase machine size.
A riveting machine equipped with a motorization system, connecting rods, and a guide device that allows the upper die to move over a significant distance without folding, using a stepper motor and reducer, and a set of connecting rods to align along an axis, enabling reliable rivet crushing even with high thrust forces.
The machine enables reliable rivet crushing with high thrust forces up to 10,000 daN, allowing a large travel of the upper die over 200 mm, with a compact design and rapid cycle times of 0.2 seconds, suitable for aeronautical applications.
