The SBM setting system from Weber Screwdriving Systems, Inc. is designed for the efficient installation of blind rivet nuts, accommodating sizes M5 to M12 with both round and hexagonal heads. It features an automatic feed system and utilizes two separate EC drives for threading and setting, ensuring precise control over the installation process. The system includes automatic unthreading and ejection of rivet nuts in case of structural faults, enhancing reliability. Monitoring capabilities are provided through a motor encoder and force monitoring, allowing for quality assurance during operation. Weighing approximately 24 kg, the SBM can exert a setting force of up to 25 kN and has a setting stroke of 8 mm, making it suitable for various applications where access is limited to one side.
For setting captive inserts, WEBER supplies an automatic setting unit suitable for round and hexagon head, steel or aluminum inserts in sizes between M5 and M12.
The controller and the feed system are integrated and form a single unit. Unlike older technologies, two separate DC servo drives handle the threading and setting process – the entire process is controlled by a programmable PLC and the setting process can be visualized on a control panel. This offers ultimate control over the process and quality monitoring of the installation.
This technology leaves a high quality, high strength threaded hole in sheet metals and extrusions to allow mounting of hardware or other assemblies.
