What is resistance spot welding?

Resistance spot, ultrasonic or laser beam welding are mostly used for connecting battery cells in the production of large battery assemblies. Each of these welding techniques has its own characteristics depending on the material properties and contact geometry. Cell casing and terminal dimensions may constrain possible contact geometries.

Should you use resistance welding or micro-Tig?

“If the packs or the overall volume are smaller, then resistance welding is often used. Micro-TIG comes up for specialised battery packs with low-volume production. “Recent developments in galvo scanning, beam steering and process monitoring allow for faster speeds and improved process error detection, respectively,” he adds.

How does resistance welding work?

Resistance welding passes an electric current between a pair of electrodes and though the materials to be joined, relying on the heat generated by ohmic resistance to melt and fuse them. It is a proven and relatively cheap process, but has limitations in the applications and geometries to which it is suited.

What is Jupiter resistance welding system?

Using a pneumatic actuated weld head for high force enables a stable weld. By integrating our industry-leading weld process control, the Advanced Welding System of the 3rd generation (OP-AWS3-A), our Jupiter Resistance Welding System is perfectly suited for welding high quality automotive sensors, actuators and safety related components.
