GAV 8000 (Automatic riveting machine)

Use by industry in robot-controlled applications Both versions of the GAV 8000 can be integrated into robot systems. Industrial robots are used almost everywhere in the production environment. They can be programmed to carry out various movements and can therefore be used highly effi ciently in combination with the GESIPA® rivet equipment. With the controlled, fast and secure production processes it is possible to achieve the following benefi ts by using a fully-automatic GAV combined with a multi-axle robot: • First rate precission • High effi ciency • Short cycle times • High fl exibility

• 2.4 mm up to 6.4 mm Ø alu and copper • Up to 6 mm Ø steel & 5 mm Ø stainless steel • Up to fl ange diameter 11.4 mm • Rivet body lengths above 30 mm • Traction power up to 11,770 N at 6-7 bar air pressure Productivity and savings potential • Up to 40 blind rivets can be processed every minute • No trained personnel required for operation • Can be easily integrated into fully-automatic production systems • Electronic system controls • Intuitive menu guidance via navigation and function keys • Function display • Maintenance display and simple fault diagnosis • Customer-specifi c software modifi cation is possible • Ideal for applications that do not require any process monitoring • Rivet mandrels are disposed of by vacuum system • Spring loaded trigger system as an optional extra available • Can be integrated into the system or operated independently • Interface for external memory programmable control system (SPS) can be realised via the GESIPA® interface

• Blind rivet sizes from 4.8 mm to 8.0 mm Ø all materials • Rivet body lengths up to 35 mm • Setting head diameter up to 19 mm • Mandrel up to 5.5 mm Ø • Traction power up to 20,000 N at 5 bar air pressure • Conveyor pot filling level display • Operating pressure: 5 bar • Vibration-dampened pressure intensifier attachment • Multiple monitoring of the blind rivet pistol by means of sensors • Industrial control with an 8“ colour display • Conveyor distances of up to 25m are possible when used in fully-automatic production systems • Maintenance display, simple fault diagnosis • Customer-specific software modification is possible • Ideal for applications that do not require any process monitoring • Rivet mandrels are disposed of via a vacuum system • Surface contact trigger optional available • Can be integrated into the system or operated independently • Interface for external memory-programmable control system (SPS) can be realised via the GESIPA®- Interface

A closed end rivet The rivet body of the GESIPA CAP ® blind rivet is absolutely air and watertight. Liquids cannot seep through, could however seep around the set rivet, if the setting hole is too large. Therefore great care must be brought to fullfi lling the hole tolerances. The GESIPA CAP ® blind rivet – The structure For technical reasons, the rivet mandrel of the GESIPA CAP ® blind rivet must be fi xed in the rivet body. However this means that the rivet body can only deform slightly during the setting process. As a result, the cap blind rivet only has marginal hole fi lling capability. However this is necessary to be able to compensate large bore-hole tolerances. The GESIPA CAP ® blind rivet – Tight connections with care The above-mentioned technical situations make careful preparation of the application imperative. The hole diameter should be as tight as possible to ensure a fl awless function in the application for a long period.
