What are the two primary functions of the electrodes in resistance welding?

Expert Solution & Answer
Check Mark
To determine

The two primary functions of the electrode used in the resistance welding.

Explanation of Solution

The electrode used in the resistance welding must be conductive in nature because it is used to supply the current to the materials being joined. When the current passes through the materials, due to contact resistance between them heat is generated in the material which raises the temperature at the junction (interface) of the two materials.

The electrode is also used to exert required pressure on the work-piece which varies throughout the weld cycle. Initially the pressure is applied to hold the work-pieces together and to maintain the resistance between them. When the required temperature is attained the pressure is used to induce coalescence (merging of the two materials as a one mass).

4. G A micarta pinion rotating at 1200 r.p.m. is to transmit 1 kW to a cast iron gear at a speed of 192 r.p.m. Assuming a starting overload of 20% and using 20° full depth involute teeth, determine the module, number of teeth on the pinion and gear and face width. Take allowable static strength for micarta as 40 MPa and for cast iron as 53 MPa. Check the pair in wear.

2. A spur gear made of bronze drives a mid steel pinion with angular velocity ratio of 32: 1. The pressure angle is 14½. It transmits 5 kW at 1800 r.p.m. of pinion. Considering only strength, design the smallest diameter gears and find also necessary face width. The number of teeth should not be less than 15 teeth on either gear. The elastic strength of bronze may be taken as 84 MPa and of steel as 105 MPa. Lewis factor for 14½½ pressure angle may be taken 0.684 0.124 y = No. of teeth as [Ans. m 3 mm; b= 35 mm; Dp = 48 mm; D= 168 mm]
