10.2 Resistance welding. Resistance welding processes involve the welding of two or more metal parts together in a localised area by the application of heat and pressure. The heat is generated by the resistance to the passage of a high current through the metal parts held under a preset pressure.
GENERAL PRINCIPLES. Resistance welding is a thermo-electric process in which heat is generated at the interface of the parts to be joined by passing an electrical current through the parts for a precisely controlled time and under a controlled pressure (also called force). The name "resistance" welding derives from the fact that the ...
1. Welding Cycle. The welding cycle of flash butt welding, as shown in Figure 14-7, includes the reset time – the time it takes for the movable clamping jaws to return to their original position after releasing the workpiece. There are two methods of preheating: resistance preheating and flash preheating. 2.

V and a capacity of 2100 mAh. One-sided resistance welding process was an. welding current value (table I, lines 1÷3; I=2.0/2.2/2.4 kA);
Held close to the work plates, the current and heat in the weld remain high. Held farther away, the electrode produces less heat and more spatter. As a rule of thumb, in stick welding, arc length should match the diameter of the electrode metal. In other words, if you''re using a 1/8 inch rod, hold it 1/8 inch from the joint surface.
From a resistance welding point of view the part must be held or positioned in the proper orientation and alignment to meet the part specification. It must stay that way until the electrodes have closed on the part. Fixtures or tooling frequently perform this function. PIN LOCATING 4 PROJECTIONS.
For low-carbon steel sheets with a thickness of 1-1.5 mm, the maintenance time is 0.1-0.2 seconds, while for welding low-carbon steel with a thickness of 8-10 mm, the full crystallization of the welding nucleus requires around 1.5-2.5 seconds. Therefore, the maintenance time should not be less than this value.

June 22, 2021. Electric resistance welding (ERW) or resistance welding is the welding process that joins metal parts in contact permanently by heating and melting them at the joint utilizing an electric current. The electric resistance welding process stands out among the other welding processes since it does not use flux, arc, or shielding gasses.

Metal–plastic composites (MPCs) are gaining importance mainly due to high strength to weight ratio. They consist of three layers, two outer metallic cover sheets, and a plastic core.
