Abstract
Existing methods for manufacture of high-temperature copper alloys were analyzed, and service durability of different electrode materials in spot welding of galvanized steel was evaluated. The effect of composition of electrode materials on their hardness at increased temperatures was studied.
Keywords: resistance spot welding, resistance welding machines, electrode material, galvanized steel, service durability of electrodes, bimetal electrodes, alloy structure and hardness
