  • Publication number: 20240165732
    Abstract: A method for resistance welding at least three steel sheets, a weld structure produced by resistance welding at least three steel sheets and a method for determining weldability solutions when resistance welding at least three steel sheets in a stack are provided. By applying a layer of adhesive/sealer material between a thicker outer sheet of steel and an adjacent thicker inner sheet, thereby generating extra heat that increases penetration into a thinner outer sheet but with no layer of adhesive/sealer material between a thinner outer sheet and an adjacent thicker inner sheet, current density drop issues of a current process are addressed.
