ROLL WELDING (ROW)
SSW process in which pressure sufficient to cause
coalescence is applied by means of rolls, either
with or without external heat
• Variation of either forge welding or cold
welding, depending on whether heating of work
parts is done prior to process
• If no external heat, called cold roll welding
• If heat is supplied, hot roll welding
ROLL BONDING PROCESS
• Pressure is applied to the
work pieces through dies or
rolls
• Preferably both work pieces
should be ductile
• The work pieces should
cleaned thoroughly
• Can not join dissimilar metals
ROLL WELDING APPLICATIONS
• Cladding stainless steel to mild or low alloy steel for
corrosion resistance
• Bimetallic strips for measuring temperature
• "Sandwich" coins for U.S mint
ULTRASONIC WELDING (USW)
Two components are held together, and
oscillatory shear stresses of ultrasonic
frequency are applied to interface to cause
coalescence
• Oscillatory motion breaks down any surface
films to allow intimate contact and strong
metallurgical bonding between surfaces
• Temperatures are well below Tm
• No filler metals, fluxes, or shielding gases
• Generally limited to lap joints on soft materials
•(a) General setup for a lap joint; and (b) close‐up of weld area
USW APPLICATIONS
• Wire terminations and splicing in electrical
and electronics industry
• Eliminates need for soldering
• Assembly of aluminum sheet metal panels
• Welding of tubes to sheets in solar panels
• Assembly of small parts in automotive
industry
FRICTION WELDING
• It is solid state joining process.
• Mechanical friction between a
moving work piece and a
stationary component.
• Lateral force (upset) is applied
to plastically displace and fuse
the materials
TYPES OF FRICTION WELDING
SPIN WELDING
• A rotating chuck along with
flywheel.
• After reaching to required speed
motor is removed form flywheel.
LINEAR FRICTION WELDING
• Oscillating Chuck is used.
• Use for non‐round shapes as
compare to Spin welding.
• Material should be of high shear
strength.
• FRICTION STIR WELDING
• A cylindrical shouldered
tool, with a profiled probe
(nib or pin) is used.
• Friction is between tool
shoulder, nib and work
metal.
DIRECT DRIVE FRICTION WELDING PROCESS
Friction Welding (Inertia Welding)
• One part rotated, one stationary
• Stationary part forced against rotating
part
• Friction converts kinetic energy to
thermal energy
• Metal at interface melts and is joined
• When sufficiently hot, rotation is
stopped & axial force increased
INERTIA WELDING PROCESS
ADVANTAGES OF FRICTION
• Simplicity of operation and simple equipment.
• Less time requirement.
• Low Surface impurities and oxide films.
• Compare to resistance butt welding produces improved welds at higher speed and lower
cost, less electric current is required.
• Heat affected zone is small as compare to conventional flash welding.
• Less shortening of the component, as compared to that in flash or butt welding.
• There is no flux, gas, filler metal or slag present to cause imperfections in welds.
DISADVANTAGES OF FRICTION
• Process is restricted to flat and angular butt welds.
• Use only for joining small parts.
• In case of tube welding process becomes complicated.
• In case of high carbon steels it is difficult to remove flash.
• It require heavy rigid machine due to high Thrust pressure.

RESISTANCE SPOT WELDING (RSW)
Resistance welding process in which fusion of faying surfaces of a lap joint
is achieved at one location by opposing electrodes
• Used to join sheet metal parts
• Widely used in mass production of automobiles, metal furniture,
appliances, and other sheet metal products
• Typical car body has ~ 10,000 spot welds
• Annual production of automobiles in the world is measured in tens of millions
of units
• Resistance Welding is a pressure welding technique using high current and low
voltage
• The current passing through the two overlapping work pieces causes local heating and
temperature of the metallic pieces raises to the fusion point due to resistance offered
by the work pieces to flow of current
• Subsequent application of pressure results in permanent joining of the work pieces by
the formation of weld without the use of filler material
• Work pieces are placed between two rods or wheels(rolls), which serve as conductor
for producing welds
• AC electric current is supplied through copper electrodes or rolls connected to the
secondary coil of a welding transformer.
It is used for welding thin sheets of similar metallic materials
The following metals may be welded by Resistance Welding:
•Low carbon steels ‐ the widest application of Resistance
Welding
•Aluminum alloys
•Medium carbon steels, high carbon steels and Alloy steels
(may be welded, but the weld is brittle)
APPLICATIONS:
Resistance Welding (RW) is used for joining vehicle body parts, fuel tanks, domestic
radiators, pipes of gas oil and water pipelines, wire ends, turbine blades, railway tracks.
TYPES OF RESISTANCE WELDING ARE:
• Resistance spot welding
• Resistance seam welding
• Resistance butt welding 1.Upset welding
2.Flash welding
•Resistance projection welding
RESISTANCE SPOT WELDING (RSW)‐ PROCESS
• The contact resistance between the two pieces of
sheet metal to be joined is much higher than the
bulk resistance of the copper electrodes or of the
sheet metal itself.
• Highest resistive heating occurs between the two
pieces of sheet metal.
• As current continues to flow, melting occurs and a
weld nugget is formed between the two sheets.
• On termination of the welding current, the weld
cools rapidly under the influence of the chilled
electrodes. This causes the nugget to resolidify,
joining the two sheets of metal.
• Resistance spot welding is used extensively because
it is a simple, inexpensive, versatile, and forgiving a) Spot welding cycle
process. It has been shown to be adaptable to
some degree of feedback control. (b) Plot of force and current
Cycle: (1) parts inserted between electrodes, (2) electrodes
close, (3) current on, (4) current off, (5) electrodes opened
Typical car body has about 10,000 spot welds

RESISTANCE SEAM WELDING (RSEW)
• Adopting process of continuous joining of
overlapping sheets by passing them between
two rotating electrode wheels. Heat generated
by the electric current flowing through the
contact area and pressure provided by the
wheels are sufficient to produce a leak‐tight
weld.
• Seam Welding is high speed and clean process,
which is used when continuous tight weld is
required (fuel tanks, drums, domestic
radiators,gasoline tanks, automobile muffler ).
RESISTANCE PROJECTION WELDING (RPW)
• A resistance welding process in which
coalescence occurs at one or more
small contact points on the parts
• Contact points determined by design of
parts to be joined
• May consist of projections,
embossments, or localized intersections
(1) Start of operation, contact between parts is
of parts at projections;
(2) (2) when current is applied, weld nuggets
similar to spot welding are formed at the
projections
OTHER RESISTANCE PROJECTION WELDING
OPERATIONS
(a) Welding of fastener on sheet metal (b) cross‐wire welding
RESISTANCE BUTT WELDING
It is of two types:
1. Upset welding
2. Flash welding
• Upset Welding is used to join the pieces end to end
• The process is best suited to rods , pipes and many other parts of uniform
cross section.
• In upset butt welding , the parts are clamped and brought in solid contact
and current is applied so that the heat is generated through the contact
areas of the parts.
• When the temperature of the interface reaches to plastic state, the current
is switched off and the two parts are pressed together firmly. This results
in lateral flow of the surfaces oxide layers. This action of pressing together
is called upsetting.
• Butt welding is used for welding small parts. The process is highly
productive and clean.
Upset Butt Welding
Flash Welding (FW)
• Flash welding is similar to upset welding except that the heat is obtained by
means of an arc than the simple resistance heating.
• The two parts are brought together and the power supply is switched on.
• As the parts are moved closer , flashing or arcing raises the temperature of the
parts to a welding temperature.
• Now power is switched off and two parts are rapidly pressed (forced) together
causing a small upset. This squeezes out liquid metal and oxides, formed on the
joint surfaces and the two parts are welded together.
• Thick pipes, ends of band saws, frames, aircraft landing gears are produced by
Flash Welding.

ECONOMICS OF WELDING OPERATIONS
•Costs in welding and joining processes
depend on such factors as:
• Equipment Capacity
• Level of automation
• Labor skill required
• Weld quality
• Production Rate
• Preparation Required
WELDING AND JOINING COSTS

They are simple to perform and automate
EQUIPMENT COSTS FOR WELDING
• High‐ Electron‐Beam and Laser‐Beam Welding
• Intermediate‐ Spot, Submerged Arc, Gas Metal‐Arc, Gas Tungsten
Arc, Flux‐Cored Arc, Electro‐gas, Electro‐slag, Plasma Arc, and
Ultrasonic Welding
• Low‐ Shielded Metal‐Arc and Oxyfuel‐Gas Welding
LABOUR COSTS
•Labor Costs are usually higher in welding compared to other
metalworking operations due to operation skill, welding time and
preparation required.
•In robotic controlled welding the welding time is 80% of the overall
time; whereas in manual welding only 30% of the overall time is
spent welding.
• High to Intermediate‐ Oxyfuel‐Gas Welding and Shielded Metal‐Arc
Welding
• High to Low‐ Electron‐Beam and Laser‐Beam Welding and Flux‐
Cored Arc Welding
• Intermediate to Low‐ Submerged Arc Welding
SUCCESS FACTORS IN SSW
• Essential factors for a successful solid state weld are that the two faying
surfaces must be:
• Very clean
• In very close physical contact with each other to permit atomic
bonding
SSW ADVANTAGES OVER FW PROCESSES
• If no melting, then no heat affected zone, so metal around joint retains
original properties
• Many SSW processes produce welded joints that bond the entire contact
interface between two parts rather than at distinct spots or seams
• Some SSW processes can be used to bond dissimilar metals, without
concerns about relative melting points, thermal expansions, and other
problems that arise in FW
