Resistance spot welding looks simple and easy until the welds fall apart, at which point the process suddenly takes on a whole new level of importance. However, success with spot welding does not need ...

This Spot Welder can be used to weld 18650 batteries. It needs a 7-12V power source (12V recommended) and uses a 12V car battery as welding current supply. Typically one 45Ah battery delivers enough ...

A few years ago Elektor published a workshop on spot welding for smaller objects (welding battery packs) using capacitive discharge. This was not a finished project, rather a starting point for ...

The main purpose of resistance spot welding (RSW) is to join metal sheets together. This includes flat and formed pieces of bracing, stiffeners, brackets, hinges and other parts. Spot welding is also ...

This repository contains a real-world dataset collected from a leading automotive industry, focused on the resistance spot welding process. The dataset includes 1,976 samples with labels indicating ...

Kaizen, or continuous improvement, is a basic tenet of lean manufacturing. It says, in effect, that less-than-optimal is never acceptable. The concept can be applied to every major assembly process, ...

Both spot and projection weld fasteners have their place. Spot welding fasteners resistance-weld directly to a sheet with either a rocker-arm or a press-type resistance welding system (see Figure 1 ...
