text: To reduce CO2 emissions, the industry, particularly
in the mobility sector, focuses on lightweight vehicles with multi-material structures.
As thermal joining processes are reaching their limits, mechanical techniques
such as self-piercing riveting are being used. One innovative solution is the
versatile self-piercing riveting process (V-SPR), which combines different material
combinations with a multi-range rivet. 1 The joining process
is divided into the piercing process and the forming process of the rivet head
to the respective sheet thickness. The rivet shaft requires sufficient strength
to punch through the punch-sided sheet, and sufficient ductility of the rivet
head is required to form onto the punch-sided sheet. To achieve a combination
of these requirements, local inductive heat treatment strategies are used for
the rivet. To ensure reproducible rivet hardening, a specialised device has been
developed for precise rivet positioning in the induction coil and the subsequent
quenching process. The heat treatment differs in terms of hardening times and
temperatures. In addition, the heat treatment is combined with a subsequent tempering
process. The study aims to determine the resulting hardness distributions and
microstructures of the rivet and to investigate the influence of different heat
treatment strategies on joint formation and load-bearing capacities. The results
show that a graded hardening profile has a positive effect on the spreading behaviour
of the rivet foot and the forming behaviour of the rivet head. Furthermore, the
load-bearing behaviour of the joints is increased.
