even more possibilities in post processing

03/02/2025

From now on, you have even more choices in post-processing! This way, you save valuable time and space while receiving a complete package of products, wherever and whenever you need them. Good to know: we take care of the adjustments in the cutting drawings, so you only need to provide PDF working drawings indicating your requirements. You can read how to do this by clicking on this link.

TAPPING & COUNTERSINKING

Do you want a perfectly finished product? With professional equipment, we take care of the tapped holes in laser-cut products. The holes are countersunk in accordance with the applicable standards before metric threads are applied as per the drawing.

If the hole only needs to be countersunk, we have the appropriate tools available, and this is also carried out precisely according to the drawing.

INSERT NUTS

Insert nuts (also called rivet nuts) consist of a tubular/hollow front section that allows a nut to be fastened in a hole without needing access to the rear side of the product. The advantage is that only one side of the product needs to be accessible. Due to the large surface area of the nut on the blind side, this ensures a strong and durable connection. Through precise positioning, we ensure that the final product looks exactly as you envisioned it.

Another major advantage of insert nuts compared to rivets is that the connected products can still be disassembled.

PRESS STUDS & PRESS NUTS

Creating a neat and strong connection point at exactly the right position, even in thin sheet material.

Compact and reliable—exactly where you need it! We are happy to think along with you to make your workpieces even more efficiently producible.

STUD WELDING

This fastening technique, in which metal studs (threaded rods) are welded onto sheet metal, is commonly used for thin sheet metal housings, such as in equipment manufacturing.

Stud welding with externally threaded rods allows components to be attached to the inside of a sheet metal housing. This way, various machine components can be securely mounted inside the enclosure.

Due to minimal or no discoloration and deformation of the material, little to no post-processing is required. As this technique is suitable for various materials, especially thin sheets, it offers great added value in post-processing.

FLOW DRILLING

Through friction, threaded bushings are formed in thin sheet material. A combination of speed and pressure generates frictional heat, which can reach up to 700°C. The softened material is displaced, creating both a hole and a threaded bushing from the displaced material.

We would be happy to tell you more about the above possibilities. If you have any questions, feel free to ask!
