Details Introduction

Electric Resistance Welding (ERW) uses the thermal effect of current for welding and belongs to the cold working process, which is more efficient. The process is as follows:


 

Raw material preparation
  • Cold-rolled or hot-rolled steel strips are used, and the surface quality requirements are higher (oil stains and oxide scale must be completely removed) to avoid pores during welding.
  • The steel strip is leveled by roller pressing to eliminate internal stress and ensure forming stability.
Continuous forming
  • The steel strip is gradually bent into a tubular shape through a group of forming rollers, and the joints are tightly fitted (gap ≤0.1mm) to create conditions for resistance welding.
  • During the forming process, the alignment of the joints is precisely controlled by the guiding device to ensure the accuracy of the welding position.
Resistance welding
  • A high-frequency current (usually 100-500kHz) is applied to the joint of the tube blank through the electrode, and the heat generated by the metal resistance is used to rapidly heat the joint to a plastic state (approximately 1300-1400°C, not completely melted).
  • At the same time, pressure is applied through the squeeze roller to make the metal atoms at the joint diffuse and combine to form a solid weld (without filler material).
  • Immediately after welding, the weld is cooled by water spraying to control the range of the heat-affected zone (HAZ) and avoid grain growth.
Weld heat treatment (optional)
  • Some high-specification steel pipes need to be annealed: heat the weld area to 700-800°C, and cool slowly to eliminate welding stress and improve weld toughness.
Finishing and surface treatment
  • Same furnace welded steel pipe process: straightening, cutting to length, weld trimming (resistance welding welds are usually thin and can be omitted from grinding).
  • The galvanizing or black pipe treatment method is the same as furnace welding.
Quality inspection
  • In addition to conventional water pressure tests and visual inspections, resistance welded steel pipes need to be added Weld ultrasonic testing , to detect internal defects such as lack of fusion and slag inclusion.
  • Performed in some scenarios Flattening test : Flatten the steel pipe to 1/3 of the outer diameter, and the weld is qualified if there are no cracks, verifying the weld plasticity.
