Abstract

Resistance spot welding plays a critical role in the manufacture dissimilar material industry. However, there are differences in mechanical properties between mild steel and satinless steel so as to reduce the quality of welded joints. In order for differences in mechanical properties to be corrected, surface roughness was treated. The aim of this study was to optimize the welding parameters of DRSW with surface roughness by analysis using the Taguchi and Anova Methods. In this study discusses about investigates the Resistance spot welding parameters on weld geometry, mechanical properties, and SEM EDS on dissimilar materials of mild steel and stainless steel. The material thickness of the mild steel and stainless steel are 1 mm, respectively. The process parameters of the resistance spot welding joint used, example; surface roughness, current, welding time, and electrode force. Quality welding joint test results include weld geometry, mechanical properties, and SEM EDS. Weld geometry testing to determine the weld nugget profile. The mechanical properties test was shear tensile test, while the SEM EDS included macrostruture and microstructure observations. The results showed the highest nugget diameter 6.65 mm highest shear tensile strength 7.66 kN. The most influential parameter is current by 75.08 %, then surface roughness by 12.35 %. The highest tensile strength has fewer defects. Surface roughness treatment before welding is very good to make welding quality joints between mild steel and quality stainless steel increase. Surface roughness treatment was very good to be included when making welding procedures for welding engineers for welding processes resistance spot welding dissimilar mild steel with stainless steel.
