TOX® clinching technology enables sheet metal to be joined reliably – without thermal effects and without additional fasteners such as screws or rivets. This creates a stable mechanical joint through plastic deformation of the material, ensuring vibration-resistant and durable joints. At the same time, coatings and surfaces remain undamaged, while the high repeatability ensures consistent quality even with large production volumes. This is complemented by process-monitored joints, which enable maximum process reliability in series production.
Your benefits
TOX® joining technologies enable reliable and cost-effective mass production of home appliances. Strong joints without the need for filler material reduce assembly time, material costs, and logistics. At the same time, surfaces and coatings remain undamaged – a key advantage for visible appliance housings and applications subject to vibration, such as washing machines.
At the same time, TOX® systems are optimally designed for automated production lines and can be easily integrated into robot cells, transfer lines, interlinked production facilities, and flexible manufacturing systems. With cycle times of less than one second per joining point, they are ideally suited to high-volume series production.
