Bollhoff RIVKLE B2007 - Operating Principle and Technical Features of the Device; Pressure Setting Method: Force Controlled Setting; Setting Methods

Pressure setting method: force controlled setting
In the stroke setting method, the tool delivers a constant stroke. When
there is a variation in thickness of the workpiece there is a definite risk
that a blind rivet nut may not be set properly, or become damaged due
to the setting mandrel damaging the RIVKLE
®
thread. In this situation
there will be premature wear of the mandrel.
This phenomenon is eliminated with the pressure setting method as the
setting force is controlled irrespective of the thickness of the workpiece.
This setting principle is particularly well suited to workpieces with variable thickness (plastic parts,
various layers…) and provides consistent setting quality.
Advantages:
! Optimised setting into panels with thickness variations
! Possibility to set the same RIVKLE
®
more than once
! Permits quality control (force indicator…)
! Extended mandrel life
! Can also set different types of RIVKLE
®
with one tool and one single setup
