(continued from part I: Journal of Materials Processing Technology, vol. 99, 2000, nos. 1/3, pp. 62-71) This paper considers adhesive bonding and mechanical fasteners (self-piercing rivets, clinch joints, blind rivets, EJOT self-drilling rivets) as potential techniques for the joining of spaceframe components in volume production. Production issues pertinent to the automotive industry are discussed in conjunction with a consideration of the physical properties of the joint produced. Comparisons are also made with welding techniques (especially with spot welding) discussed in part 1of this two-part paper. Whilst the findings show that processing problems associated with each technique differ in nature, the overriding issues remain common to all. No one technique discussed was found to provide an ideal combination of low cost, process reliability, consistently good quality, good microstructural integrity, high strength, and excellent impact and durability performance. However, whilst a definitive solution is not evident, it is concluded that a combination of techniques could be utilised to great effect. Examples of such effective hybrid techniques include riv-bonding combining riveting and adhesive bonding or weld-bonding combining spot-welding and adhesive bonding. Such an approach could capitalise on the benefits of certain techniques, whilst at the same time minimising or eliminating some of their more significant shortcomings.
