RESISTANCE SPOT WELDING

Resistance spot welding is historically significant, as it is among the oldest electric welding procedures still widely used in the industry today. Resistance spot welding is performed through a combination of pressure, time and heat. In short, localized heating takes place during the weld, while tongs and electrode tips provide the necessary pressure and finally, the amount of time taken depends upon the thickness of the material being welded. Electrode tips allow a current to flow to separate pieces of metal and the resistance of the base metal to electrical current sparks heating in the join, thus causing the weld.

RESISTANCE SPOT WELDING: BENEFITS

• Ultimate versatility: resistance spot welds can be used for almost all known metals
• Consistent electrical resistance and conductivity at point of weld
• Capable of performing at high speeds
• Ease of automation process
• Works with exceptional energy efficiency
• Unlike most welds, resistance spot welding produces minimal fumes
• Historically proven effectiveness and performance
• Customized resistance spot welding can be developed and performed to meet your specifications

THE SIX MAJOR POINTS OF RESISTANCE:

• Contact point between electrode and top work piece
• Top work piece
• Crossing point of top and bottom work piece
• Bottom work piece
• Point of contact linking bottom work piece and electrode
• Electrode tips resistance points
