Joining technology
Fully automatic joining technology is a process for the fast, precise and reproducible connection of two or more components - made of the same or different materials - fully automatically by using robots and modern control technologies. This makes it possible to ensure high quality in the manufacture of products.
An important advantage of the fully automatic joining technology is that it can be tailored to the requirements of the respective application. There are various techniques that can be used to connect components made of different materials, such as gluing, welding, riveting or pressing.
Gluing is a fully automatic joining technique that is particularly suitable for connecting components made of different materials that are not subject to high loads and where a clean look is important. Welding is particularly suitable for joining components made of metallic materials that are subject to high loads, such as in the automotive industry or in the manufacture of machines. Riveting is another fully automatic joining technique that is particularly suitable for connecting components made of metallic materials that are subject to high loads. Pressing is particularly suitable for connecting components made of different materials that are subject to high loads.
Overall, the fully automatic joining technology offers a multitude of advantages, such as the possibility of connecting components made of different materials quickly, precisely and reproducibly, and the technologies can be tailored to the requirements of the respective application.
