In the wake of modern industrial changes, thinner and lighter components such as metal plates, PC boards, or plastic pieces are increasingly used due to ever-growing demands from consumers. While trying to achieve secure assemblies with high torque out and pull-out performance, manufacturers are also looking into ways to simplify the process and ensure cost savings.
A great way is to look into the design phase of the assembly by reducing the number of fasteners required, leading to fewer process steps in the final assembly.
Self-clinching solutions ensure secure assemblies while being easy to install. This leads to cost savings due to reduced fasteners cost as well as shorter assembly time: https://www.bossard.com/in-en/product-solutions/product-solutions-business/self-clinching-,-a-,-piercing-solutions/
