Butt Welding
WHAT IS BUTT WELDING?
Resistance Butt Welding is a Resistance Welding (RW) process, in which ends of wires or rods are held under a pressure and heated by an electric current passing through the contact area and producing a weld.
The process is similar to Flash Welding, however in Butt Welding pressure and electric current are applied simultaneously in contrast to Flash Welding where electric current is followed by forging pressure application.
Butt welding is used for welding small parts. The process is highly productive and clean.
In contrast to Flash Welding, Butt Welding provides joining with no loss of the welded materials.
