BlueFastening Systems: What does it actually mean?
Basis of support Example: Example: Sustained customer advantage
Reducing complexity conventional process BlueFastening Systems
Screw, washer, nut Thread-tapping screw • reduces weight
Exploiting development with pressed washer • saves processing costs
potential Manufacturing to drawing • cuts total number of articles
Fasteneering® development
Implementing product Welded nut / welded bolt process • optimises cost and weight throughout
technology the entire development process
Pierce-clinch nut / clinch stud
System development Separate suppliers for • achieves transparency with the aid of
fasteners and system Systeneering® agree milestones
Resource-friendly manufacturing components
technology Cold-formed precision parts • maximum reliability by combination of
Using innovative material / Machined precision parts analysis, forecasting, testing and ramp-
technology combinations Thread-tapping up.
Multi-functional components Metric steel screws aluminium screws
Component assemblies (e.g. • no thermal weakening at the fastening
Deploying components screw / sleeve combinations) position
with single-dimension or plastic injection moulded
function parts • high process reliability in fully-automated
Harmonised head, thread and manufacturing
tip geometry
Resistance element welding • flush-mounted processing. Reduces
(REW) processing costs with "ready to go" com-
ponents
International production sites
for regional supply • Developing individual integrated solu-
tions consisting of fastener, tool and
processing technology
• less material used
means lower part prices
• reduces weight
• reduces processing costs
• reduces assembly costs
• reduces total number of parts
• reproduces technical benefits
Knowledge transfer Individual geometry • increases assembly and operating
reliability
Innovative joining procedure Spot welding on • reduces weight by joining different light-
robotic production plant weight construction materials
• very economical because it uses existing
processing plant
Highly accurate Supply Local production supplies • reduces transport costs 07
Chain Management international sites • more reliable supplies
