Need Help Automatic Rivet Maching

[Emd2kick]

I've had a request to create dial tags for a customer, and they need small rivets to hold the number wheels in place. The quantity is too large to do these by hands. Does anyone have an equipment suggestion on how best to rivet these pieces?

Thanks

What type of material are they being attached to? In my factory days we would use drive screws to attach tags/plates to equipment. Drive screws or rivets you still need to drill holes into the substrate, but you only need a small hammer to install the drive screws.

They appear to be 1/8 diameter...your grommet machine can do that?

If thats 1/8th inch, you have a tiny thumb.

Sorry had to do it
