Holder - Stripper
Die
Punch
Sheets to be joined
Terms:
Knob

The stripper locks the sheets against the die
08.04.2023 33
The punch is forming the sheets against the die S
08.04.2023 34
A 360 degree flange is formed and the joint is fixed
08.04.2023 35
The joint diameter is determined by the punch.Standard sizes are: 3.0mm (0.12”)3.8mm (0.15”)4.6mm (0.18”)5.5mm (0.22”)6.4mm (0.25”)7.6mm (0.30”)
The die depth is according to the material thickness
08.04.2023 36
The depth (AD) in the die is determined by the sheet thickness to be joined
08.04.2023 37
(BD)
By checking the (BD) the joint strength can be determined

III. How much force is needed ?
08.04.2023 39
Nominal press force for Tog-L-Loc joints in mild steel :
• 2 ton for a 3,0 mm joint• 2.5 ton for a 3,8 mm joint• 3 ton for a 4,6 mm joint• 4.5 ton for a 5,5 mm joint• 6 ton for a 6,4 mm joint• 8 ton for a 7,6 mm joint

Application History – Automotive
Audi A2/A8
1) 4 Rivet types – 1 rivet hardness, level 4
2) Only level 4 rivets were offered at the start of the project.3) Space frame design, driven by A8
SPR knowledge
DC CL Class
1) 7 rivet types, 3 rivet hardness levels
2) 50% are level 6, range of material stacks
3) High Cycle time and high number of tools
4) Only Henrob rivets, similar difficulty to XJ
5) Technical show case
BMW 5 Series
1) 5 rivets, 2 hardness levels, level 4 & 62) 8mm level 6 rivets only one supplier
Henrob3) 6mm level 4 rivets market place struggle to control the hardness.4) Bolt on riveted front structure
Jaguar XJ1) 16 rivet types 3 hardness level 2) Many rivets above 6mm in length3) 248 different joint stack4) Aluminium sheet, casting and extrusionUsed.5) HLSA also used6) Riveting through adhesive
The success of the XJ Vehicle has shown that SPR technology is not a barrier to mass production of light weight monocoque / space frame BIW
Future Direction of HSPR
5. Expand the Rivet range and offer complementary products
SPS Stud and Process
M5 – M6 Studs are available with and without a nut
New SPS Stud and Process
Developed to give a Wider Operating Range
The New Henrob Self Piercing Stud can be used in single and multiple Steel and Aluminium sheets and Aluminium Extrusions
A single tool can attach studs to Aluminium sheet thickness’ from 1mm to 3mm without requiring a change of Die or Process
Torque values of >20Nm are maintained for the M6 studs across the range of thickness’
Studs are available with M5 and M6 threads in lengths 10mm to 25mm
New Design
Solid Rivet Development
Strictly Confidential - Henrob
Henrob have worked closely with Kurb Konus and developed a riveting system that fits with the standard SPR tool head envelop. The systems have been in production since the end of 2008 at Daimler/Magna.
Expensive Solution x3 Cost of SPR
High Strength Steel Riveting
Henrob has developed a new range of rivets for joining high strength steels, heavy gauge steels and thick steel and aluminium applications.
The rivets were developed to facilitate the joining of Dual Phase (DP) and TRIP steels in the range 600 to 1000 Mpa using the existing Henrob setting equipment.
The high strength rivets are available in the length range 5 to 14mm, with Pan and Countersink Head Styles.
Henrob Limited has been developing a new range of Self Pierce Rivets which can be used to join High Strength Steels (HSS) to HSS. Plus HSS to aluminium, these products are now ready for production release.
SPR and Magnesium-Henrob has been working with Meridian
- If the magnesium is used as the top sheet we believe we have solutions available today.
-The second phase is to look at the corrosion effects, this testing will take place over the next couple of months
