What does that mean exactly? With a minimum number of base frames, the new C-frame modular kit guarantees a maxi- mum number of setting tool variants. Thanks to its bionic basic structure, it furthermore improves the joint quality because opening is almost parallel. Another plus: it is a real lightweight in the field of setting tools. It almost goes without saying that Böllhoff as a fastening technology expert not only examines the demand for lightweight construction with respect to joining special lightweight components, but also with re- spect to weight optimisation for the peripheral equipment of the joining process. The result is rather impressive. Reduced to the essential, the new feeder al- lows the combination of Single, Twin and Tri- ple feed variants with only one extension kit. Trained personnel can easily implement such technology on site. Innovative industries need innovative partners For modern production systems, production planning and control are also of great impor- tance for defining and optimising manufactur- ing processes. Such requirements have also given new impulse to Böllhoff as an expert in self-pierce riveting technology. In cooperation with our customers, we elaborate new con- cepts, such as a software-based workflow to plan and handle the procurement of process devices. Transparent and project-specific data and information are thus guaranteed. Another example is an intelligent delivery con- cept based on the modular design of Böllhoff components. Time-critical machine compo- nents are separated from non-time-critical components. Those are only two concepts that are very useful contributions to a flexible and equally efficient production and procure- ment planning. An additional service package, including the service of a specialised maintenance team for optimum maintenance of the process machines, completes our range of services. The team provides significant support for smooth and trouble-free production. That’s Böllhoff: fasteners and joining tools for self-pierce riveting come from a single source – perfect conditions to continue to stand out as a solution specialist for innovative indus- tries in the future. ■ Böllhoff Group www.boellhoff.com Website Company Profile ServiceXpert Gesellschaft für Service- Informationssysteme mbH Ingolstädter Straße 45 80807 Munich, Germany Phone: +49 89 2444209-0 Fax: +49 89 2444209-99 office@servicexpert.de www.servicexpert.de/en/home ServiceXpert ServiceXpert, system & software house for commercial vehicle OEMs and suppliers in Europe and Germany, is established engineering partner for vehicle E/E development.
