Truck & Trailer: When the rivets answer (almost) all fastening questions
Application-specific solutions from Bossard / KVT-Fastening for trailers, bodies, semi-trailers
Kay Brenning not only knows when blind rivets are the better alternative as a fastening solution. He always thinks one step ahead when it comes to profitability. After all, the Business Development Manager at Bossard / KVT is a proven expert in the special field of "Truck & Trailer", where developers and manufacturers are happy to draw on his know-how and experience.
In a recent case (company name falls under the confidentiality agreement) the task for trailers, bodies and semi-trailers was: optimization of the range, reduction of costs while ensuring quality at the same time, reduction of production time. So all that, according to Kay Brernning, scores with a riveting solution.
Bossard / KVT-Fastening also has a huge range of "exclusively top products" from a wide range of rivet types for a wide variety of applications and setting tools: "Whether sealing, multi-range, stainless steel or high-strength fasteners - we have the right rivet, which solves the desired fastening problem.”
The Business Development Manager emphasizes that the company is not a manufacturer itself - and therefore "can give our customers the security of not being offered their own preferred blind rivets or blind rivet nuts".
The comprehensive range is important, for most truck & trailer developers and manufacturers the competence of the Bossard / KVT engineers, who make them available in several engineering services, is even more important.
Kay Brenning, for example, took a close look at the production of trailers, bodies and semi-trailers during the "Expert Walk". Together with those responsible, he checked every single step, every fastening element, every product group and every tool in production.
Reduce total cost of ownership with Expert Walk and Expert Assortment Analysis
The detailed analysis of the processes and the applications in the trailer resulted in various potential for improvement in the areas of assortment design and assembly processes.
Kay Brenning: “This is where our “Expert Assortment Analysis” engineering service comes into play. With a precise analysis and interpretation, we reduce the overall operating costs by determining the right fasteners, minimizing the expensive variety of C-parts and fasteners and thus warehousing, and optimizing production processes.
And much more often than you might think, existing fasteners are being replaced with rivets.”
