Principles and application of RES welding technology

Friction element welding technology is rich of flow drill screws combined with friction welding technology and is developed for the hot-forming steel plate and aluminum alloy welding of car body-in-white. In this paper, the principle of RES welding technology, equipment, technical characteristics, application condition and welding parameters are analyzed systematically. Moreover, the changing laws of welding parameters and welded joint quality control standards are described, which provides the necessary technical support for safety and light-weight car body design requirements. This study has high practical application value, and enriches the automobile body joining technology.
