Automated Rivet Nut Installation | MDS In-Line Systems
Automated In-Line Rivet Nut Installation
Sherex® by PEM® utilizes MDS automated rivet nut installation systems for manufacturers who require continuous, high-volume fastener installation with the process control and traceability that modern production demands. In-line automated systems eliminate manual handling variation, deliver consistent installation parameters on every cycle, and provide real-time monitoring data for quality assurance and production reporting.
These state-of-the-art installation systems help drive efficiencies while eliminating waste and rework.
System Capabilities
- Continuous in-line installation integrated into existing production flow
- Programmable installation parameters for multiple rivet nut types and sizes
- Real-time force and displacement monitoring for 100% installation verification
- Automatic part rejection for out-of-specification fastener sets
- Data logging for production traceability and quality reporting
- Integration with MES, SCADA, and ERP systems via standard communication interfaces
Return on Investment
MDS automated rivet nut installation typically delivers rapid return on investment in high-volume environments through reductions in direct labour, elimination of rework costs associated with installation variation, and improved line throughput. Sherex® by PEM® can support feasibility assessment and ROI modelling as part of the initial project scoping process.
