Downholder with Disc Spring in riveting machines
May 19, 2026
In modern manufacturing, Riveting technology plays a critical role in creating strong, permanent mechanical joints.
The Role of Downholder in riveting Machines ensures accurate seating before riveting and forming.
Disc spring downholder is a preloading system designed to apply an axial force onto a workpiece prior to processing. It aims to seat, compress, and stabilize components before riveting or forming operations start.
Disc springs are widely used in downholder because they offer:
- Higher force in compact enclosed housing compared with coil spring downholder
- Variable preload force can be achieved by different stacking or by adding or removing disc springs

OPTIMUM Disc Spring has been manufacturing disc springs for Disc spring downholder in riveting machines since 1984.
