    To evaluate the static strength in which the laser-spot-welded-stainless-steel-panel for vehicle body applications is applied as outside plates to improve corrosion resistance and heat hardiness of conventional aluminum honeycomb panels, static tests were carried out. This panel consists of two face sheets and truss-shaped corrugation core. They are assembled by the laser spot welding and the ...

    Presented at ICALEO 2006

    Joining of zinc coated steels represents a continuously changing challenge for welding specialist as the low boiling point of zinc leads to evaporation of the zinc coating in the seam as well as in the HAZ. Due to these conditions post treatment of the surface has to be performed in order to guarantee sufficient corrosion resistance. Brazing with CuSi3 alloys represents one way in order to reduce zinc evapo...
