In terms of material innovation, rivet nuts are now made from new materials such as high-strength aluminum alloys to meet higher requirements, and lighter, higher-strength materials will be used in the future. Regarding process improvements, precision installation technologies such as tension-controlled riveting are being promoted, effectively ensuring riveting quality, and making the riveting process more refined and efficient. Structural optimization is manifested in the development of integrated designs, such as integrating multiple functional components into one component to simplify connection methods, and the development of new structures such as openwork rivet nuts to improve the hardness and load-bearing capacity of parts.
Intelligentization and automation are important directions. In the future, automation and intelligentization of the production process will be achieved through the introduction of automation technologies and robots, specifically through the introduction of intelligent installation tools with functions such as automatic cutting and installation process monitoring. In terms of environmental protection and high-performance coatings, surface treatment technologies with better corrosion resistance are being developed, such as polyurethane anti-corrosion paint, waterproof coatings, and zinc-nickel plating coatings with stronger adhesion.
