The TOX®-Joining-Systems The best answer to every challenge.

Why a new technique? Because all previous methods have involved economic and technical problems. Take welding, for example. A complex, expensive process which can only be applied to precoated sheet metal or aluminium with great difficulty. Surface coatings are damaged or sheet metals are not joined properly. And there is still no reliable automatic process control for all these imponderable factors. The TOX®-Joining technique puts an end to these problems. It joins different materials by means of a deep drawing-pressing process. And it does so without damage to the surface, purely by displacing and forming.

TOX® advantages for a good connection

See for yourself: + TOX®-Round Joint: 30 to 60% cost savings as compared to spot welding.
Seat rail

For each operation a suitable solution: • Point diameter from 1,5 to 26 mm • Individual sheet thicknesses from 0,1 to 11 mm • 2 – 4 sheet metal layers

+ The TOX®-Joint achieves up to 70% of the static strength of a spot weld. + The dynamic strength of TOX®Joint is higher than in spot welding. + The process can be automatically monitored and documented. + Simple, non-destructive quality control is possible. + The materials are strain hardened at the connecting joint and are therefore stronger compared to spot welding, which has significant stresses around the weld nugget,
