Drawing of Spot Welding

[edit] Voltage?

The page should mention what voltage spot welding is generally done at. —BenFrantzDale 16:50, 1 February 2006 (UTC)

I don't believe the open circuit voltage would be in the range of 10 volts for ordinary welding equipment. The value seems too high. 64.9.237.232 (talk) 20:30, 2 June 2008 (UTC)

[edit] metallographic cross-section

I have added an image of an etched cross-section of a spot weld. I can take additional photographs if someone would suggest them. I'm a wiki-novice, so help me out if I have done something incorrect. Thanks--Mebg6522 20:47, 14 June 2007 (UTC)


Looks like the photo of the cross-section was removed. If anyone wants it back let me know via this discussion. Thanks-- Mebg6522 02:12, 22 July 2007 (UTC)
