Rivet Better, Without the Hose!
Makita is the industry leader in providing battery operated assembly tools to OEMs and now, with over 100 years of worldwide manufacturing coupled with our world class lithium ion battery platform, Makita has added cordless rivet tools to our offering for OEM manufacturing customers.
Rivets have been used in assembly for hundreds of years, and although the principles have remained the same, the technology we use to install rivets has improved greatly. Using air to power your tooling is becoming more and more expensive. Battery operated rivet tools reduce the high costs associated with pneumatic systems, they increase ergonomics for your operators, and also allow for greater mobility within your factory by eliminating unnecessary air hoses.
Makita models XVR01T and XVR02T are our latest effort to provide the next generation of product to our valued manufacturing partners. Makita’s new rivet tools offer:
- Brushless motors delivering up to 4,500 pounds of force (20kN)
- Rivet sizes up to 1/4” (6.4mm)
- Ability for most rivet types, including aluminum, steel, and stainless
As manufacturers seek out new technologies to better improve their processes, Makita will continue to offer tooling that exceeds the expectations of our customers. For more information about these tools, please contact us at:
