Understanding The Process Of Spot Welding Using Reference Electrodes

1. Understanding The Process Of Spot Welding Using Reference Electrodes According to the manufacturers of Reference Electrodes, “spot welding” and “resistance welding” are synonymous terms. You can achieve the process when you short-circuit an electrical source through a stack of metals that you can weld. You have to do it to melt the metals under a specific value of applied force. In doing so, the metals will fuse together. It’s a process that doesn’t require you to use filler materials. The heat required in combining the metals is a derivative of the electrical resistance of the metals you use. The joining interfaces divided into variable voltage output values also play a role in it. When you combine the two, you generate an adequate “welding current.” Now, the electrical resistance of the metals remains constant almost all the time. You can determine the electrical resistance of the joining interface by the applied force of the electrodes and the contaminants or oxides generated when you put the electrodes to work. To control the entire process, you’ll need a microprocessor-driven electronic control system. This machine for welding control will allow you to administer all the functions. Among all the control functions, the first one is the “squeeze time.” It’s the time allotted to the movable electrode to make contact with the work and generate the necessary welding force. Other functions

2. There are a few other functions performed by the microprocessor-driven electronic control system mentioned above on the Silver Silver Chloride Reference Electrode. The next one is the “weld time” that starts automatically after the “squeeze time.” It’s the time allotted to the electrical source to conduct or short-circuit the stack of metals you can weld under an applied force. The third function incorporates the “percent heat” or “percent current.” During the “weld time,” you’ll determine the electrical source output using this setting. If you achieve a higher number, you’ll know that it’s generating more heat or creating “hotter welds.” The “hold time” is the fourth function that begins automatically and immediately after the “weld time.” It’s the time allotted for the movable electrode to operate under force against the work before retracting. The “squeeze time,” “weld time,” and “hold time” are programmable in cycles.
