Self-pierce Riveting – Overview
This guideline provides users of the joining process "self-pierce riveting with semi-tubular and solid self-pierce rivet" with an overview and information on the technology, the design of components, suitable materials and their quality assurance. In self-pierce riveting, overlapping parts are joined without pre-piercing using solid or semi-tubular self-pierce rivets (hereinafter also referred to as joining elements). The mechanism of action is based on a combination of force and form locking. In self-pierce riveting with half-hollow pierce rivet, the joining element is pressed through the punch-side joining part (the punch-side joining parts in the case of multilayer joints) in an uninterrupted joining process and the die-side joining part is formed with the aid of the rivet and die geometry.
