The heat staking machine takes advantage of the cylinder downward pressure to let the product column (collar) form a certain shape under maximum pressure and meanwhile uses the prepressing unit to compress between the upper product and the lower product to rivet them after the hot rivet is heated. Meanwhile, the product is cooled through blowing to make the product reach a saturated state and a certain pressure after riveting.

Signal | Meaning |
1.red | Error of the machine when red light on |
2.yellow | The machine is standby when the yellow light on |
3.green | Green light indicates normal operation of equipment. |
manual connection valve（compress air supply）
The hoses may hurt your eyes！
There is potential risk of the storage device(sometimes happen when the machine emergent stop)
*The pneumatic equipment must be without any air pressure before working (the air exhaust will be finished automatically when the valve is turned off)
Danger
the compressed air used for the heat staking machine is processed by the maintenance unit, when the pressure within the input pipe is up to 6 bar, the condensed water will deposit.

How to Safely Disassemble the Heat Staking Machine?
Before disassembling the heat staking welding machine, ensure it is shut down completely. Disconnect the specified energy sources, ensuring that there is no pressure, no flow, and no pressure in the system. If applicable, empty the hydraulic and pneumatic systems. Additionally, ventilate the compressed air system and vacuum system to ensure they are safe. Always wear appropriate protective gloves to prevent injuries. Make sure that all components are properly disconnected before starting the disassembly process.
What Safety Measures Should be Taken During the Transport of the heat staking welding machine?
When transporting heat staking welding machine, always secure the load using suitable straps or slings to avoid any accidental movement. It’s essential to avoid sudden stops or rapid movements during transport to prevent goods from shifting or falling. Maintain a safe distance from any suspended goods to reduce the risk of injury. Additionally, ensure that all personnel involved in the transportation process are well-informed and take all necessary precautions to ensure safety. Always use proper lifting and support tools when handling heat staking welding machine to minimize risk.
How Should the Heat Staking Welding Machine be Stored Temporarily Before Installation?
If the heat staking welding machine cannot be installed immediately after delivery, it should be temporarily stored in a secure, enclosed space on a flat wooden base to prevent damage. The storage area should maintain an air temperature between 10°C and +40°C and a relative humidity level of 20% to 80%, without condensation. It’s important to protect the equipment from corrosion by using appropriate corrosion protection methods for all bare parts. These protective coatings should be removed once the equipment is ready for installation. Proper storage conditions will help ensure the equipment remains in good condition until it is installed.
