The rivet is a key component in the manufacture of easy-open lids and rings for metal containers. It is formed from the bulb and is the part in charge of joining the ring and the cap. It is crucial that their formation is very precise, because if their diameter and height are not within specifications, problems could arise in subsequent processes.

When a change of material or format is made in production, it is important to check the bottom and radius of the rivet, as these parts are the most exposed to corrosion due to stretching in the varnish.

In the manufacture of rings, various forming or crimping operations are carried out, as well as the chamfering of the tip, the rivet hole and the bending of the ring. These processes are essential to ensure the quality and functionality of caps and rings on metal containers.
