When Welding Steel Strip with a Medium-Frequency Spot-Welder, How to Avoid Burn-Through?
Oct 13,2026
When welding steel strip with a medium-frequency spot-welder, improper heat-input control easily causes burn-through, where the metal at the weld spot overheats, melts through, and forms holes.

I Hazards of Steel-Strip Spot-Welding Burn-Through
1.Hole defects appear, damaging the load-bearing capacity of the weld spot
2.Rough surfaces and welding spatter appear at the weld-spot position
3.Batch defects easily occur, increasing rework and product-scrapping costs
II Main Causes of Steel-Strip Spot-Welding Burn-Through
1.Unreasonable welding heat input
2.Abnormal pressure and contact condition
3.Poor electrode operating condition
4.Workpiece incoming-material and tooling factors
III Measures to Avoid Steel-Strip Burn-Through
1.Optimize welding process parameters
2.Rationally control electrode pressure
3.Do good electrode maintenance management
4.Control workpiece surface and incoming material
5.Tooling clamping and process control
