Clinching Tools for Sheet Metal
Clinching is the mechanical fastening method to join sheet metal without additional components using special tools to plastically form a mechanical interlock between the sheet metals.
Clinching is used in the automotive, appliance and electronic industries, where it can replace spot welding. Clinching is a cold forming process and does not require electricity or cooling of the electrodes commonly associated with spot welding offering advantages in manufacturing.
An additional benefit of clinching is the capability to join pre-painted sheet metal commonly used in the appliance industry without damaging the painted surface. Clinching has also become an important means of fastening aluminum panels, such as boots and bonnets, in the automotive industry, due to the difficulties involved with spot welding of aluminum.
