Hardware Insertion Machine - Haeger
Haeger has pioneered and manufactured hardware insertion machines and tooling systems for inserting nearly every type and size of self-clinching fastener imaginable. And the development continues. They are constantly creating new technologies for inserting all kinds of fasteners into all kinds of materials.
Hardware Insertion Machine Models

A. Autofeed Tool Change System
The New OneTouch-3 offers a four station automatic tool changing system with a Servo-Driven Upper Axis which offers a 3 Second Automatic Tool change. The new shuttle tooling platform provides 2 minute tooling set up for any fastener.
Haeger 824 Window Touch
Features of this Hardware Insertion Machine
- The WindowTouch with the Turret Insertion System enables the insertion of up to four different fasteners in one handling, providing a productivity boost of 40% or more.

B. Turret Insertion System (TIS–2)
The Turret Insertion System (TIS) enables up to four different fasteners to be inserted in one Part Handling. The NEW TIS-2 provides tool position feedback and positive locking station to ensure the operator is in the correct tool station, and the tool never moves during insertion. Tool position feedback helps eliminate missing fasteners by preventing the operator from moving to the next fastener until all the current fasteners are inserted. The positive locking feature provides 100% alignment of the insertion tools ensuring consistent alignment for AutoFeeding.
E. New Multi-Shuttle Tooling Platform for Nuts, Studs, Standoffs
The NEW Multi-Shuttle Platform provides universal quick and easy tool change-over between nuts, studs, and standoffs - enabling 2 minute total tool changes without realignment. The Multi-Shuttle platform, available on the WindowTouch exclusively, shares tooling modules with the OneTouch providing higher consistency, less training, and broader use of tooling for both machines. Change over between Manual and Automatic Tooling set up is faster and easier.

Types of Mechanical Joining Solutions
Mechanical Joining Solutions | TOP
Spot Welding Alternatives
Sheet Metal Joining Tooling
Joining produces an instant button headed joint in ductile metals with a single ram stroke, providing a clean, and efficient alternative to spot welding. Both similar and dissimilar materials can be joined in this process.
Rivets (Semi-Tubular & Solid)
Haeger can supply a variety of automatic and manual tools for feeding and inserting a wide variety of semi-tubular and solid rivets. Rivets with a length of 1.5 times the head diameter can be fed automatically. Hole/Part alignment tools are also available for the customer.
Self-Piercing Rivets
Rivets are installed in a matter of seconds using a standard Haeger insertion machine with our exclusive riveting tools and feed system. The rivet pierces its own hole and holds the upper sheet with the rivet head while the sheet material is pressed into the short groove at the bottom of the rivet. The completed assembly is flush on both sides! Rivets are available in lengths from 2.1mm up to 7.5mm and all can be inserted with the same tooling and feeding line. A simple upper tool adjustment allows insertion of all 19 rivet lengths.
