Rivet Nut USA™ PN: 28259010664 & 28259010665
Improve Ergonomics and Tool Handling During Rivet Nut Installation
The Articulated Arm is a workstation accessory designed to support battery-operated rivet nut installation tools, like the Bollhoff B107 (B4107) and B109 (B4109) offered by Rivet Nut USA™, a division of Cardinal Components, Inc. By supporting the tool during operation, the articulated arm provides a practical “zero-gravity” solution for manufacturing and assembly environments where operators perform repeated rivet nut installations.
The articulated design allows the supported tool to swing around the work area while keeping the installation tool readily accessible. This makes the arm particularly useful for production workstations where high volume and repetitive installations are occurring, as it provides efficient tool handling and operator ergonomics.
Designed for Production and Assembly Workstations
Battery-operated rivet nut tools provide flexibility of cordless operation. The Articulated Arm provides additional ease of use because of its configuration. The arm’s jointed structure allows movement around the workstation while the vertical support is bolted to a dedicated mounting point on the workstation for the tool-support system. The design features a floor or workstation-mounted vertical column, an articulated horizontal arm, and an overhead tool-support mechanism.
Key Benefits
- Supports cordless battery rivet nut installation tools at the workstation
- Helps reduce the amount of tool weight the operator must support during repetitive installation
- Articulated design allows the tool to be repositioned within the work area
- Keeps the installation tool conveniently accessible between installations
- Well suited for repetitive assembly and production applications
- Available in two configurations
In production environments where rivet nuts are installed repeatedly throughout a shift, tool handling can be an important part of workstation design. For manufacturers using the B4107 or B4109 battery-operated rivet nut installation tools by Boellhoff, the articulated arm can provide a better setup for repetitive rivet nut installations. They can be incorporated into a workstation to create a more organized and ergonomic fastening setup.
