Your modules – our joining solutions

In the commercial vehicle industry, joining technology is crucial for the reliable functionality, durability and safety of vehicles. A variety of materials and components from different areas such as electronics, mechanics and metals are often installed in vehicles. Different fastening and assembly solutions are used depending on the specific requirements and properties of the components. Discover our innovative and reliable solutions.

  • Driver's cab exterior

    Driver's cab exterior

    The exterior of a driver's cab is a significant factor in the safety, aerodynamics and durability of the vehicle. Various types of connections are required to securely fasten components such as exterior mirrors, headlights, radiator grilles and body parts. These connections must be able to withstand extreme weather conditions, high wind loads and mechanical stress caused by high driving speeds and long operating times.

  • Driver‘s cab interior

    Driver‘s cab interior

    The cab of a commercial vehicle is crucial for the safe and comfortable operation of the vehicle and requires a variety of joining methods. These include the attachment of seats, dashboards and electronic systems such as the air conditioning and infotainment. These connections are exposed to different vibration loads caused by uneven roads, driving speeds and temperature fluctuations.

    We support you in selecting the optimum fastening solution:

  • Power train

    Power train

    The exhaust tract of a commercial vehicle is a complex system that is responsible for the discharge and aftertreatment of exhaust gases. It includes components such as the exhaust manifold, catalytic converters, particulate filters, silencers and exhaust pipes. These components must be connected precisely and securely to ensure optimum functionality and compliance with emissions regulations.

    We offer you the right joining solutions:

  • Battery tray

    Battery tray

    Integrating the battery tray into the commercial vehicle faces challenges such as ensuring safety and stability, vibration and shock resistance as well as optimal space utilisation and weight reduction. Among other things, our joining solutions help to withstand vibrations, for example to protect the batteries from damage.

    We support you with our customised joining solutions:

RIPP LOCK® for secure screw connections in the driver's cab

The driver's cab ensures safe and comfortable operation of the vehicle. A variety of connection types are required for seats, dashboard and electronic systems, such as air conditioning and infotainment. These connections must be able to withstand the vibrations caused by uneven road surfaces, changing driving speeds and temperature differences. Efficient screw locking is essential to avoid connection errors and serious consequences.

RIPP LOCK® screw locks offer the ideal solution here. The radial ribs of the RIPP LOCK® screw lock mould themselves positively into the mating surface and thus ensure a strong hold even under heavy vibrations and dynamic loads.
