• Spot welding — is a type of resistance welding used to weld various sheet metal products. Typically the sheets are in the 0.5 3.0 mm thickness range. The process uses two shaped copper alloy electrodes to concentrate welding current into a small spot and to… …   Wikipedia

• Percussion welding — (PEW) is a type of resistance welding that blends dissimilar metals together. Percussion welding creates a high temperature arc that is formed from a short quick electrical discharge. Immediately following the electrical discharge, pressure is… …   Wikipedia
