Why <strong>Eckold</strong><br />
clinching?<br />
<strong>Clinching</strong> costs<br />
at low cost.<br />
Cost comparisons of customers and independent bodies have shown that <strong>Eckold</strong><br />
clinching is significantly more cost-effective than other joining techniques.<br />
Depending on the joining task, the overall costs for the manufacture of a clinched<br />
component are approximately 55% of the costs for spot welding, for example.<br />
This takes account of both investment costs and operating costs.<br />

• Optional versions (R-DF, S-DF, H-DF and CONFIX) for the ideal joint to solve<br />
individual problems<br />
• Sheets of aluminium alloys or non-formable materials such as spring steels<br />
can be joined with a formable material by means of the CONFIX variation<br />
• Joining elements with the greatest holding forces<br />
• Compensates for fluctuations in sheet thickness<br />
• Joining of oil-impregnated sheets possible
