  • Joining lightweight components by resistance element welding - REW [Elektronski vir]
    Đurić, Aleksija ; Milčić, Dragan ; Klobčar, Damjan
    Resistance welding is a very cost- and energyefficient welding process for thin sheets with wide distribution in the automotive manufacturing. With the challenges of lightweight construction in this ... area, new highstrength steel grades, light metals, and fiber-reinforced plastics are increasingly used. Hence, to that, adjustments of the welding processes are required. New process variants such as the resistance element welding (REW) are used to join mixed compounds of lightweight components and steel. Similar to the welding of functional elements, a low energy input in the base material is targeted, so only a small thermal influence of the materials occurs. The paper presents the mechanical properties, microstructure and macrostructure of the REW joint depending on the welding parameters
