Abstract
Method for welding two stainless steel sheets of thickness (e) 0.10 to 6.0 mm and having a particular composition having: a first welding step lasting a time (t) in ms: 0.10 to 0.50 mm, t=(40×e+36)±10%; 0.51 to 1.50 mm: t=(124×e 13)±10%; 1.51 to 6.0 mm: t=(12×e+47)±10%; with clamping force (F) in daN: 0.10 to 1.50 mm: F=(250×e+90)±10%; 1.51 mm to 6.0 mm: F=(180×e+150)±10%; appling a current between the welding electrodes, of intensity between 80 and 100% the maximum permissible intensity corresponding to expulsion of molten metal; a second step with an intensity between zero and 1 kA; and a third step with an intensity of 3.5 kA to 4.5 kA, for a time of at least 755 ms.
