Fundamentals

Function of Electrodes in Spot Welding

Spot welding electrodes conduct current and force directly into the joint area. At the contact surface, resistance heat is generated, melting the materials locally. Under controlled pressure, the molten zones fuse into a shared weld nugget that solidifies into a strong and permanent connection.

Key Parameters of Spot Welding Electrodes

  • Electrode material plays a key role in current conduction and thermal management. High-conductivity copper alloys with defined strength ensure controlled heat input and prevent local overheating during welding.

  • Accurate electrode dimensions are essential for repeatable positioning in the welding gun. Only consistent contact conditions maintain stable current flow.

  • Electrodes are subject to mechanical stress during operation. A hardened or coated surface protects against wear, reduces buildup and ensures stable current transfer high-frequency production.

  • Tip geometry defines current density, heat input and the resulting weld nugget. For reproducible weld quality, contour and dimensions must be matched to material properties, sheet thickness and electrode configuration.
