How to make a weld schedule for a resistance welding.

A weld schedule is a set of parameters used to control the welding process in resistance welding. These parameters include the welding current, welding time, electrode force, and electrode size. A well-designed weld schedule is critical to achieving a high-quality, repeatable weld. Here are the steps to create a weld schedule...
