  1. RESISTENCE WELDING MAC(100410119010)

  2. Welding types • Plastic/Pressure Welding • Fusion/Non Pressure Welding

  3. DEFINITION • RESISTENCE WELDING:- A Process in which the heat for producing weld is generated by the RESISTANCE to the flow of current through the parts are to be joined. The application of external force is required. H=I^2 RT

  4. CLASSIFICATION

  5. BUTTWELDING

  6. APPLICATION OF BUTT WELDING • Upset weld Principally on non ferrous materials for welding bars , rods , wires… • Flash weld Extensively in automobile construction-on the body ,axels, wheels, frame and other parts.

  7. Resistance spot welding • RSW uses the tips of two opposing solid cylindrical electrodes. • Pressure is applied to the lap joint until the current is turned off in order to obtain a strong weld.

  8. Principle drawing:-

  9. Procedure:

  10. Alternativeunderstanding

  11. ELECTRODES • Spot welding electrodes of different shapes are used. Pointed tip or truncated cones with an angle of 120° - 140° are used for ferrous metal but with continuous use they may wear at the tip. Domed electrodes are capable of withstanding heavier loads and severe heating without damage and are normally useful for welding of nonferrous metals. The radius of dome generally varies from 50-100 mm. A flat tip electrode is used where minimum indentation or invisible welds are desired.

  12. Electrode Shapes:

  13. Application • Most of the industrial metal can be welded by spot welding, however, it is applicable only for limited thickness of components. Ease of mechanism, high speed of operation and dissimilar metal combination welding, has made is widely applicable and acceptable process. It is widely being used in electronic, electrical, aircraft, automobile and home appliances industries.

  14. Seam welding: • In seam welding overlapping sheets are gripped between two wheels or roller disc electrodes and current is passed to obtain either the continuous seam i.e. overlapping weld nuggets or intermittent seam i.e. weld nuggets are equally spaced. • Modification of spot welding electrodes are replaced by rollers.

  15. Seam welding continue

  16. Types of seam weld: Overlapping of weld nuggets may vary from 10 to 50 %. When it is approaching around 50 % then it is termed as continuous weld. Overlap welds are used for air or water tightness.

  17. Application: • Seam welding is used for producing leak-proof joints in tanks and boxes generally required for automobile industry. • Restricted to welding thin materials ranging between 2.5 to 5.0 mm.

  18. ApplicationDrawing • RSEM can produce a continuous seam & joint that is liquid & gas tight.

  19. Water cooling in electrodes For spot welding For seam welding

  20. Projection welding • Projections are little projected raised points which offer resistance during passage of current and thus generating heat at those points. These projections collapse under heated conditions and pressure leading to the welding of two parts on cooling. The operation is performed on a press welding machine and components are put between water cooled copper platens under pressure. Weld nuggets are similar to spot weld…

  21. Machine Projection welding may be carried out with one projection or more than one projections simultaneously

  22. Application: • Nuts and bolts can be welded to sheet plates by this process • Metal baskets, oven grills, shopping carts can be made by RPW.

  23. Percussion welding • The operation is performed with one part held in a stationary holder and the other in clamped mounted on a slide which is backed up against pressure from a heavy spring , the movable clamp is released rapidly carrying the part forward. • When the two parts are 1.5 mm apart, a sudden discharge of electrical energy is released, causing an intense arc between the two surfaces. • Suitable for dissimilar metals. • Highly suitable for welding small wires to electrical components.

  24. All in one:

  25. Advantages: • High speed, <0.1 seconds in automotive spot welds • Excellent for sheet metal applications < ¼ inch • No filler metal • No flux

  26. Disadvantages • Higher equipment cost then arc welding • Power line demands • Low tensile and fatigue strength • Not portable • Electrode wear • Lap join requires additional metal
