Orbitform is the industry leader in delivering orbital solutions.
Call to order!
Orbital riveting is a method of joining multiple parts together by cold forming the end of a rivet. The resulting joint may or may not allow rotation of the mated parts, depending on the product design. Typical solid rivet sizes range from 0.02” to 3” diameter.
Orbital forming is a method of deforming material to a desired shape with an orbital riveter. This process can be used to flare, swage, and crown material from 0.02” to 6” diameter.
Advantages of Orbitform’s orbital forming machines:
- Low force to material upset ratio
- Quiet and safe process with precise control and consistency
- Gentle to parts, minimal or no effect on non-contact area of workpiece
- Especially well suited for controlling pivoting joint resistance
- Less force, less floor space, less energy, less capital, less costs
- Wide range of forming heads available
- Various attractive finished looks
- Materials: aluminum, steel, brass, bronze, copper, lead, stainless, plastics, etc.
- Preferred solution where shank swelling, buckling, or part damage is a concern.
