An automobile frame riveting machine, also known as a truck frame rivet press, is a specialized equipment designed for riveting components of vehicle frames () to ensure structural integrity. Here's a simple English introduction highlighting its key aspects:
Purpose
- Specifically used to rivet steel plates, brackets, and other components of automobile frames (truck beams, chassis structures), securing them firmly to withstand heavy loads and vibrations.
Working Principle
- Utilizes hydraulic or pneumatic power to drive a rivet punch, which deforms the rivet shank through pressure, clamping connected metal plates together. The process can be automated or semi-automated for precision.
Main Components
- Riveting Head: Contains the punch and die for deforming rivets.
- Hydraulic/Pneumatic System: Provides the force (e.g., hydraulic cylinder with 10-50 tons of pressure).
- Worktable/Fixture: Holds the frame components in position during riveting.
- Control Panel: Adjusts riveting pressure, stroke, and speed; may include PLC programming for automated sequences.
Key Parameters (Example)
- Riveting Force: 10-50 tons (adjustable)
- Applicable Rivet Diameter: 8-25 mm (common for steel rivets in frame construction)
- Working Pressure: Hydraulic: 16-30 MPa; Pneumatic: 0.6-1.0 MPa
- Riveting Speed: 1-3 seconds per rivet (depending on automation level)
- Positioning Accuracy: ±0.5 mm (ensures precise hole alignment)
Advantages
- Strength: Creates permanent, high-strength joints resistant to vehicle vibrations.
- Efficiency: Faster than manual riveting, suitable for mass production in automotive factories.
- Consistency: Uniform riveting quality reduces defects and rework.
- Safety: Automated operation minimizes worker exposure to repetitive stress injuries.
Applications
- Automotive manufacturing (truck frame assembly, bus chassis production)
- Heavy-duty vehicle maintenance (repairing or reinforcing damaged frames)
- Trailer and commercial vehicle production
Peion hydraulic rivet machine is a new type of riveting equipment, also known as ring rivet pressing machine, ring rivet machine, ring rivet pulling machine, hydraulic rivet machine, etc., is developed according to the principle of cold riveting, this rivet machine equipment is mainly used in vibrating screen, mining equipment, bridge machinery, vibration equipment, railway vehicles, boilers and so on. Different from the fastening force generated by the torsion rotation of the traditional nut bolt, the ring groove rivet uses Hooke's law principle, through the rivet gun under the action of one-way tension, stretching the bolt rod and pushing the sleeve ring, squeezing the internal smooth sleeve ring into the screw groove so that the sleeve ring and the bolt form 100% combination, resulting in permanent fastening force. This complete riveting process usually takes only 5-8 seconds.
