In the current plastic matrix, it is common to use self-tapping screws or add copper inserts during injection molding. The former has poor strength, and the threaded hole is easy to crack; the processing cost is high, the injection molding efficiency is low, the labor cost and manufacturing cost are increased, and the insert is easy to slip and crack on the plastic, and the thread strength of the copper insert is not as high as that of the iron nut.
In the design of modern aviation and aerospace vehicles, in order to reduce weight and save space, the space of the fastening installation system is getting narrower and narrower, and blind hole installation is often required. In this case, single-sided riveting installation is usually used for fastening connection. At present, this kind of fastening connection products are mainly blind rivets. The riveting installation principle of blind rivets is to use the method of pulling, pulling the mandrel, and extruding the nail sleeve to deform it at the blind end to achieve the function of fastened connection. This kind of fastening connection method requires special riveting, generally imported riveting, the replacement of internal parts is expensive, the installation process is complicated, and the installation cost is high.
Pull rivets, * marked as blind rivets, are based on the principle of Hooke's law. After the two joints are clamped with special equipment for pull rivets, the metal of the ring-shaped collar is squeezed and filled to the point where there are many rivets. In the groove of the bolt column of the annular groove, a fastening method that tightly combines the collar and the bolt column. A riveting machine is a mechanical device that uses rivets to riveted items together in batches. The riveting machine is mainly assembled by rotation and pressure. The riveting machine is mainly used in the occasions where rivet riveting is required. The common specifications and models include pneumatic, hydraulic and electric, single-head and double-head.
Due to the high demand for electronic products and the reduction of assembly line workers, in order to cope with the problem of labor shortage, manufacturing factories need to use automatic screw locking equipment to replace manual labor. In the existing automatic locking and paying equipment, most of them use a screw arranging machine to arrange the screws, and an electric screwdriver (electric batch) takes the screws back and forth, or the special equipment blows the screws into the electric batch to send the screws to the electric batch, and back and forth. The method of taking is too time-consuming, and the method of blowing air is not suitable for screws with small aspect ratios.
Although there are many types of self-tapping locking screws, they all have the following main characteristics: (1) Generally, they are made of carburized steel (accounting for 99% of the total products). Also available in stainless steel or non-ferrous metals. (2) The product must be heat treated. Carbon steel self-tapping screws must be carburized, and stainless steel self-tapping screws must be solution hardened. In order to make the self-tapping screw meet the mechanical properties and performance required by the standard. (3) The product has high surface hardness and good core toughness. That is, inner softness and outer rigidity. This is a major feature of the performance requirements of self-tapping screws. If the surface hardness is low, it cannot be screwed into the matrix; if the toughness of the core is poor, it will break as soon as it is screwed, and it cannot be used. Therefore, inner softness and outer rigidity are the requirements for self-tapping screws to meet the performance requirements. (4) The surface of the product needs surface protection treatment, generally electroplating treatment. Some product surfaces require phosphate treatment (phosphating). Such as: wall panel self-tapping screws are mostly phosphating. (5) It is produced by cold heading process. It is recommended to use high-speed cold heading machine and high-speed thread rolling machine or high-speed planetary thread rolling machine to ensure product quality. The self-tapping screw produced in this way has a well formed head and high thread quality.
