Abstract
Spot welding is one system of connecting to steel materials or other materials that make up sheets. The welding time and electrode diameter are the factors that determine the formation of welding nuggets. This study was conducted to analyze the effect of welding time and electrode diameter on the joint strength of the S45C steel plate with a thickness of 1 mm. The welding process takes place with variations in welding time lasting 1 second, 1.5 seconds, 2 seconds, 2.5 seconds, 3 seconds, and variations in the electrode diameter of 6 mm, 8 mm, 10 mm. The results of welding are then carried out a tensile test to determine the strength of the formed nugget. From the data obtained, an analysis is performed. The highest output voltage analysis result of a 6 mm electrode diameter is 0.92 V with a welding time of 1.5 seconds, 8 mm electrode diameter is 0.9 Volt with 2 seconds welding time and a 10 mm electrode diameter is 0.98 Volt with welding time 1 second. The results of the highest electric power analysis of the 6 mm electrode diameter were 9655.12 Watt with 3 seconds welding time, 8 mm electrode diameter was 9227.66 Watt with 3 seconds welding time, and 10 mm electrode diameter was 9260.64 Watt with 3 seconds welding time. The highest tensile stress analysis results were 20.97 N/mm2 at 6 mm electrode diameter, 21.7825 N/mm2 at 8 mm electrode diameter and 29.555 N mm2 at 10 mm electrode diameter
