Description

Ni element-regulated magnetic field-assisted resistance unit welding method for aluminum alloy and steel
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of welding; in particular to a Ni element regulated magnetic field assisted resistance unit welding method of aluminum alloy and steel.
Background
In recent years, with the enhancement of environmental protection consciousness of people, energy conservation and emission reduction gradually become the mainstream consciousness of human survival. The vehicle is used as a main walking tool for people to go out, and has a great promotion space in the field of energy conservation and emission reduction. More and more lightweight and strong materials are used in vehicle body manufacturing. The aluminum alloy has the advantages of small density, high strength and the like, and is widely applied to non-main bearing structures such as vehicle body cover plates, vehicle rear covers and the like.
With the continuous maturity of the third generation advanced high-strength steel technology, the hot stamping forming steel represented by 22MnB5 is widely applied to the main bearing structure of the vehicle body due to the superior mechanical property, and the steel is adopted to replace the traditional steel, so that the thickness reduction and the dosage reduction of the used steel can be realized while the service performance is ensured. The formation of large amounts of intermetallic compounds due to excessive reaction between aluminum/steel is likely to cause great difficulty in metallurgical bonding between aluminum/steel, and the weldability between hot press formed steel and aluminum alloy is even worse. This is because the hot stamping steel needs to be quenched during the preparation process, and an Al-Si plating layer needs to be preformed on the steel surface in order to protect the steel surface from severe oxidation and decarburization. The coating is changed into a brittle and hard Fe-Al-Si three-phase intermetallic compound in the quenching process, and the weldability between aluminum and hot stamping steel is further reduced. The Al-Si coating on the hot stamped steel surface not only reduces the weldability between aluminum/steel, but also has a detrimental effect on the metallurgical bond between steel and steel. Al elements in the coating are easy to be partially gathered at a fusion line after being melted into a welding line, and the increase of the Al content in a local area can promote a large amount of generation of welding line ferrite in the solidification process. The bearing performance of ferrite is poor, and compared with a full-martensite structure, the weld structure performance of the ferrite which is generated in large quantity and generates segregation is obviously reduced.
Due to the adverse effect of the Al-Si coating on the surface of the hot stamping formed steel on welding, certain means are required to remove the coating when the steel is applied to welding, which increases the use cost to a certain extent. Therefore, the effective connection of the aluminum alloy and the hot stamping steel becomes a problem which needs to be solved urgently in the vehicle body manufacturing industry.
