Riveting Press Machine

A riveting machine is used to automatically set (squeeze) rivets in order to join materials together. The riveting machine offers greater consistency, productivity, and lower cost when compared to manual riveting.Press riveting is a permanent assembly process that applies a downward force to form/displace material. The head package can be pneumatic, mechanical, hydraulic, servo, or hydro-pneumatic driven.An experienced workman could forge around a hundred kilograms of rivets per day in the workshop. The first machine capable of manufacturing rivets mechanically was invented in 1836, by a boiler-maker called Antoine Durenne.
