A hydraulically operated setting tool with a hydraulic unit and a joining process for connecting at least two components

摘要

It is a hydraulically operated setting tool with a hydraulic unit as well as a joining process for connecting at least two components described with the aid of the hydraulically operated setting tool. As a result of the targeted utilization of volume flows of hydraulic fluid in the forward stroke chamber and the return stroke chamber of the piston in connection with the punch, as well as the holding-down device chamber in communication with the plunger piston and the holding-down devices are in a targeted manner the cycle times in comparison to conventional joining processes reduced.
