Verfahren zum Setzen von Blindnieten und Blindnietmuttern und Setzgerät für Blindniete und Blindnietmuttern

摘要

A description is given of a method for setting blind rivets and blind rivet nuts and of a setting apparatus, in which a tensile force is produced during a setting operation with the aid of an electric motor (3). During this process, the rivetting or setting operation is to be monitored without the need for additional mechanical components. For the purpose of monitoring the operation, the input current of the motor (3) is monitored with the aid of a circuit device which has a current-measuring device (8) that monitors the power consumption of the motor and is connected to an evaluation device (10).
