Abstract

Cross-wire welding is a type of electric resistance welding called projection welding that is used in the production of a variety of products. This paper deals with the case where steel wires of equal radii are joined together to form a reinforced steel mesh. The objective of the study is to determine the correlation between the welding parameters and the breaking force of the weld. Each weld is cut out from the given wire mesh and tested separately by destructive testing on the universal testing machine. A modular testing fixture was constructed for the tests. Although the tests are still in the initial stage, the results already give a good insight into the influence of the process input parameters on the breaking strength of the weld.
