Sheet metal working

Sheet metal working

In the field of heet metal working, Biotek Ltd. offers a range of innovative solutions that facilitate precise and efficient assembly and joining of plates and metal inserts.

 

Our PEM® self clinching fasteners provide accurate and consistent mechanical fastening connections for metal cladding and sheet metal applications. They offer many advantages over traditional methods such as spot welding, edge welding and bolting. The self clinching Fasteners offer lower production costs, limited prep work and the ability to fasten a variety of materials, making them an environmentally friendly and easier to reproduce solution.

 

What is Self Clinching Technology?

 

Production Fastening Revolutionized.

Self clinching technology has revolutionized production fastening and put PEM® on the map as a global industry leader. It’s a clean, energy-smart alternative to conventional methods such as spot weld – with proven performance for today’s most challenging applications.

When pressed into ductile material, a self clinching fastener (commonly referred to as a clinch nut or press nut) displaces the host material around the mounting hole, causing it to cold flow into a specially designed annular recess in the shank or pilot of the fastener.

 

A serrated clinching ring, knurl, ribs, or hex head prevents fastener rotation in the host material once inserted – becoming a permanent part of the piece into which it’s installed.
