J1 Committee on Resistance Welding Equipment
SCOPE
The J1 Committee is responsible for the preparation of standards related to resistance welding consumables, components, and machinery.
Committee Leadership
JOIN THE COMMITTEE/SUBCOMMITTEE
JOIN THE COMMITTEE/SUBCOMMITTEE
The J1 Committee seeks volunteers to participate in its standards development process. The committee is recruiting all types of members as well as members with specific interests (Consultants, Educators, General Interest, and Users) in regard to the committee’s scope. Contact Ady Celaya to learn more about this committee’s work and/or complete the Technical Committee Application.
As part of the standards development process, joining this committee will give you access to Accuris Engineering Workbench to streamline your workflow.
PUBLISHED DOCUMENTS
AWS J1.1M/J1.1:2013
Specification for Resistance Welding Controls
This standard provides nomenclature pertaining to the design, construction, and programming of resistance welding controls. Standard calibration and performance parameters as well as labeling and documentation requirements are also outlined. The purpose is to promote standardization, safety, and proper application of resistance welding controls.
AWS J1.2M/J1.2:2016
Guide to Installation and Maintenance of Resistance Welding Machines
This guide provides general instructions for the installation, operation, and maintenance of common types of resistance welding equipment. Generic preventative maintenance schedules and equipment troubleshooting recommendations are provided as an overview of common weld qualification techniques and corrective actions to common weld conditions.
AWS J1.3/J1.3M:2020-AMD1
Specification for Materials Used in Resistance Welding Electrodes and Tooling
This standard specifies essential properties of materials used for resistance welding electrodes and related components, the common applications of these materials, and methods of conformance verification.
AWS RWPH: 2011
Resistance Welding Pocket Handbook
This book contains basic information on resistance welding – important “do’s” and “don’ts” – common weld defects and their probable causes- various charts including sample weld schedules.
AWS A10.1M:2007
Specification for Calibration and Performance Testing of Secondary Current Sensing Coils and Weld Current Monitors used in Single-Phase AC Resistance Welding (Historical)
This specification sets forth accepted methods for testing and describing the performance of Rogowski-type air core current sensing coils (CSC) and weld current monitors (WCM) used in the measurement of single-phase ac resistance welding currents. A definition of terms relevant to this measurement is included. CSC and system tests and calibration methods are described in detail. Detailed information that shall be made available to the user are prescribed.
