Joining of Steel to Aluminum Alloy by AC Pulse MIG Welding

Abstract: This study evaluates the characteristics of welds resulting from joining dissimilar alloys, steel SPRC440 and aluminum alloy 6K21. The joint was obtained by means of AC pulse MIG welding, which alternates between direct current electrode positive (DCEP) and direct current electrode negative (DCEN), based on the EN ratio.In order to evaluate the AC pulse MIG welding for the dissimilar joining of steel SPRC440 to Aluminum alloy 6K21, the arc characteristics in relation with varying EN ratios were analyzed. The A… Show more

“…The maximum joint strength was reported to be 80 MPa with phase layer thickness around 0.9 ~ 2.5 ㎛ 12) . Park et al 36) used AC pulsed GMA process to join 1.4 mm thick uncoated steel and 1.6 mm thick AA6K21 alloy by AA4043 filler wire. The phase layer thickness was contained within 1.14 ~ 3.2 ㎛ and the maximum joint strength was achieved as 173 MPa 36) .…”

“…More recently, non-coated steel [27] and aluminized steel [17,28,29] were adopted for dissimilar metal joining rather than galvanized steel. The fluxless joining process is almost impossible for non-coated steel due to insufficient wetting, as explained above.…”

“…In other words, residual solder paste would remain in the solder interconnects if thermal aging or heat treatment is not further introduced after the fabrication process. It is likely that a few micrometer thick IMC layer could improve the bonding strength [12], [13] or even the thermal-mechanical reliability performance of solder interconnects due to better weldability [14]. However, as the IMC thickness grows up to a certain level, the shear strength of solder interconnects would be significantly downgraded [12], [13], [15]- [17] because of the hard and brittle properties of IMC.…”
