Abstract
A method is provided for joining structures, where at least one of the components to be joined is individually plastically deformed in a radial press. A control unit for the radial press has a PLC machine controller and a BTLE communication module and a mobile terminal is associated. Mobile terminals are designed to communicate with a central server via a mobile data network, which central server is equipped with a pressing program memory. Configuration programs used to set up associated radial presses are stored on the mobile terminals. Each radial press is set up by means of the associated mobile terminal, specifically by configuration of the PLC machine controller by means of a specific pressing program in accordance with program-specific data retrieved from the central server for a particular lot. Within the lot, each individual radial deformation process is triggered by triggering means arranged on the radial press itself.
