Posted on 07/10/2017 | by The Orbitform Blog Team
Kitchen utensil manufacturing companies often inquire about Orbitform riveting machines as a way to assemble spatulas, ladles, kitchen forks, slotted cooking spoons, salad tongs, and other types of food handling equipment. Food serving utensils of all shapes, sizes, and materials are efficiently and safely assembled when Orbitform utensil fastening riveting machines are used in the product assembly process.
TYPES OF UTENSILS ASSEMBLED WITH RIVETING MACHINES
All kinds of metal kitchen utensils where a handle is joined to a food touching surface are commonly joined with rivets. Aluminum ladles, stainless steel tongs, metallic spatulas, and plastic cooking spoons often have handles fastened via semi-tubular rivets or solid rivets. If the finished rivet head shape or appearance is crucial, then orbital riveters or radial riveters are often selected. If assembly process speed is critical then a Milford impact riveting machine could be selected.
KITCHEN UTENSILS OF VARIOUS MATERIALS FASTENED BY RIVETING MACHINES
Plastic handles are joined to metal forks with impact riveting machines. Stainless steel serving tongs are assembled with radial riveters. Heavy duty steel spatulas use Orbitform orbital riveting machines to assemble the handles to the food touching spatula surface.
As you can see, kitchen utensils with various metals and plastic components can be assembled with Orbitform utensil riveters equipped with assembly process aids such as parts holding fixtures, safety devices, error proofing methods, or automated feeding of rivets.
