Abstract

The resistance spot welding of the Nimonic alloys is a critical technology by manufacturing of components used for nuclear and aeronautical industry, as well as for the chemical and the petro-chemical domain. The mechanical properties and the corrosion resistance can be affected by the heat - mechanical shock caused by the welding cycle. The present paper reveals the positive effect of the heat treatment, applied before and after welding process, on the mechanical properties of the welded joints. Destructive tensile tests, shearing stress measurements and metallographic investigations were performed to evaluate the quality of the welded joints.

Keywords: Heat treatment, Nimonic 80 A alloy, mechanical tests, resistance spot welding
