Hy-Tech Adds Aerospace-Grade Hydropneumatic Riveter Line



Hy-Tech Machine, a manufacturer of engineered products, tools and replacement parts, has announced the acquisition of the assets of NUMATX, Inc., makers of small, light aerospace grade C-Squeezer and Alligator Squeezer riveters. Both companies' products are made in the USA.

"Hy-Tech sells a wide range of products, tools and parts under a number of well-respected brand names," said Douglas Ciabotti, President of Hy-Tech. "Our products are found in critical applications serving the fabricated metals, power generation, petrochemical, ship building, construction, refinery, railroad and mining industries. Now, with the addition of NUMATX, we will add an entirely new product category that aligns perfectly with our engineered solutions approach as well as with our existing brands and gives us a strong point of entry into the aerospace industry. The NUMATX patented rivet system is an innovative approach to compression riveting and we are excited to welcome them to our family."

NUMATX was founded in 2011 by Mark Swinford, who joins Hy-Tech as Vice President, Business Development - Global Aerospace.

"NUMATX riveters feature constant force over the entire stroke range. Since they are fully hydraulic at the forming head portion, they are more compact than traditional pneumatic-only units, so they reduce operator fatigue and improve product quality," said Ciabotti. "We believe that bringing safer, more efficient tools to our markets is the best way to help our customers produce a quality product."
