  1. Resistance and Solid-State Welding Processes Chapter 32

  2. 32.1 Introduction

  3. 32.2 Theory of Resistance Welding

  4. Basic Resistive Welding FIGURE 32-1 The basic resistance welding circuit.

  5. Resistive Welding Temperature Distribution FIGURE 32-2 The desired temperature distribution across the electrodes and workpieces during resistance welding.

  6. Current and Pressure for Resistive Welding FIGURE 32-3 A typical current and pressure cycle for resistance welding. This cycle includes forging and postheating operations.

  7. Schematic of Resistive Welding FIGURE 32-4 The arrangement of the electrodes and workpieces in resistance spot welding.

  8. 32.3 Resistance Welding Processes

  9. Microstructure of a Resistance Weld FIGURE 32-5 A spot-weld nugget between two sheets of 1.3-mm (0.05-in.) aluminum alloy. The nugget is not symmetrical because the radius of the upper electrode is greater than that of the lower electrode. (Courtesy Lockheed Martin Corporation, Bethesda, MD.)

  10. Tear Test FIGURE 32-6 Tear test of a satisfactory spot weld, showing how failure occurs outside of the weld.

  18. 32.5 Solid-State Welding Processes

  22. Friction Welding FIGURE 32-14 Sequence for making a friction weld. (a) Components with square surfaces are inserted into a machine where one part is rotated and the other is held stationary. (b) The components are pushed together with a low axial pressure to clean and prepare the surfaces. (c) The pressure is increased, causing an increase in temperature, softening, and possibly some melting. (d) Rotation is stopped and the pressure is increased rapidly, creating a forged joint with external flash.

  26. Stir Welding FIGURE 32-18 Schematic of the friction-stir welding process. The rotating probe generates frictional heat, while the shoulder provides additional friction heating and prevents expulsion of the softened material from the joint. (Note: To provide additional forging action and confine the softened material, the tool may be tilted so the trailing edge is lower than the leading segment.)

  27. Example of Stir Welding FIGURE 32-19 (a) Top surface of a friction-stir weld joining 1.5- mm- and 1.65-mm-thick aluminum sheets with 1500-rpm pin rotation. The welding tool has traversed left-to-right and has retracted at the right of the photo.
