Setting system for sandwich structures TSS

Thermal adhesive bond

Following the trend to lightweight construction, breaking new ground in connection technology is essential. The TSS system allows placing of plastic bosses in sandwich structures, which consist of a honeycomb or foam core with outer layers of fiber-reinforced plastics (e.g., CRP or GRP). During the TSS joining process, the plastic components are melted, creating a thermal adhesive bond. Placing the plastic bosses is carried out with or without a pilot hole and can be implemented with robotic assistance.

The TSS process is applied as a robot-assisted system or a closed setting facility in a cell. Domes are used directly as fasteners or robust threaded inserts for self-tapping screws. The entire process is freely configurable and can be documented.

When every particle matters

Ensuring technical cleanliness in automated screwdriving systems

Is your production bound by strict cleanliness standards? Even the smallest particles can cause malfunctions and impact process reliability, product quality and component lifetime. Meeting standards such as VDA 19.2 is essential to ensure high quality and safety. With the right concept, these requirements can be implemented efficiently and reliably.

Our webinar provides insights into:
✅ Causes and consequences of contamination in automted screwdriving
✅ Different types of clean production environments
✅ Cleanliness-orientated system concepts for efficient and reliable assembly processes

Learn how a well-defined cleanliness concept can help you safeguard product quality, increase process stability and achieve long-term reliability in your automated assembly.
