Production tox jointing

Tox Jointing is used to join dissimilar materials with a press operation. Offering many advantages over riveting and spot welding, a press-joining technique is particularly suitable for joining coated/painted and dissimilar materialsBenefits include the avoidance of damage to the integrity of the coatings eliminating such problems as corrosion and degradation, up to 60% cost savings over spot welding, and a quieter and cleaner working environmentClinching is a mechanical fastening method to join sheet metal without additional components using special tools to plastically form a mechanical interlock between the sheet metals.The tools consist typically of a punch and a die. There are two primary types of dies: solid "fixed cavity" dies, and dies with moving components (see the illustrations to the right). The punch forces the two layers of sheet metal into the die cavity forming a permanent connection. The pressure exerted by the punch forces the metal to flow laterally.
