The new ‘mini’ from VVG for blind rivets up to diameter 5mm, Rivdom®ZERO, is compact, lightweight, and, VVG says is simply powerful.
The cordless battery riveter Rivdom®ZERO with its high processing speed is the perfect mobile riveting solution - also suitable for large-scale industrial production, in which the flexible handling of the components is the main focus. Optional retention nose pieces ensure the firm hold of the blind rivet in any position and optimise the process in every assembly situation.
Rivdom®ZERO features the already well known ultra compact body of the successful RivSmart®, an almost wear-free brushless motor and the RivdomPLUS charging technology with high-quality lithium-ion batteries (including an optical charge indicator) which are recharged to 90% and ready for use after just 20 minutes by using the powerful quick charger (suitable for all 12V, 16V and 20V Rivdom®PLUS batteries).
With a weight of only 1.3kg, maximum comfort and a permanent fatigue-free working is guaranteed. Special attention was paid to the topic of perfect ergonomics. The tool is very well balanced and despite the compact overall dimensions the rubberized handle fits for all sizes of hands whether left or right-handed. The rotary trigger with a very low release force completes the work experience.
In addition to the low weight, the smallest possible dimensions were in the focus of development, in order to be able to work without problems even in the most confined installation situations. Thus, all front sleeves have a diameter of only 20mm and the overall length of the Rivdom®ZERO can be reduced by the supplied safety cap for safe riveting without mandrel container to an unrivalled 195mm.
The change of wearing parts such as clamping jaws and nosepieces is completely tool-free. An integrated mandrel safety device ensures maximum work safety according to the machinery directive. The ability to switch between a manual and automatic rewind mode ensures optimal adjustment to individual requirements.
Like all VVG cordless battery riveting tools, Rivdom®ZERO also offers a multitude of practical details such as the belt clip, a suspension bracket for working on the balancer, a sturdy, transparent mandrel container or an LED for the illumination of the riveting point and the L-Boxx® system case.
Upon registration of the tool, the warranty can be extended free of charge to 24 months. Customers can have the opportunity to test and get to know the new MINI and its twin-tool, the award winning RivSmart® with integrated process control functions at the Fastener Fair in Stuttgart in March.
