Definitions

  • a stamp is moved over a drive unit for setting, for example, a rivet against a coaxially opposite die.
  • the DE 103 19 411 A1 which forms the basis for the preamble of claims 1 and 13, relates to a device and a method for punch riveting.
  • the control unit is such that the die can be moved towards a workpiece via the drive unit and then against the workpiece opposite on the other Side of the workpiece retracting hold-down device can be moved further.
  • the loading process in particular can be included in this movement sequence if the hold-down device is moved back together with the die in the extended loading state until the printing phase begins and the actual setting process, for example of the joining element, takes place.
  • the loading stroke is preferably retracted with a comparatively small force which is significantly less than the pressure force during the setting process.
  • the joining tongs 1 are now applied to a component 18 by a robot, for example, with the hold-down 8, and the drive unit 2 begins with a working stroke, as a result of which the die 4 is extended against the component 18 (see Figure 5d ).
