Abstract
A method for producing a welded joint between a steel sheet and an aluminum sheet, wherein the steel sheet and the aluminum sheet are clamped horizontally and are welded together on only one side in the welding position, a corresponding welded joint and a component comprising a corresponding welded joint.
Claims18
A method for producing a joint between a steel sheet and an aluminum sheet, the method comprising:
- cutting the steel sheet and the aluminum sheet, thereby forming trimming regions at respective end faces of the steel sheet and the aluminum sheet and cutting burrs at the trimming regions;
- clamping the steel sheet and the aluminum sheet;
- and
- forming, after horizontally clamping the steel sheet and the aluminum sheet, a welding bead on an upper side and a lower side of the steel sheet and an upper side and a lower side of the aluminum sheet by welding the steel sheet and the aluminum sheet together only at the trimming regions such that the cutting burrs point in opposite directions during the welding, and the cutting burrs of the steel sheet points upward during the welding, wherein the steel sheet and the aluminum sheet are joined together on a side facing the welding torch and on a side facing away from the welding torch.

A method for producing a joint, the method comprising:
- cutting a steel sheet and an aluminum sheet, thereby forming trimming regions at respective end faces of the steel sheet and the aluminum sheet and cutting burrs at the trimming regions such that the cutting burrs point in opposite directions during the welding process, and the cutting burrs of the steel sheet points upward during the welding process;
- clamping the steel sheet and the aluminum sheet, and pressing the steel sheet and the aluminum sheet down on respective upper sides thereof;
- and
- welding the steel sheet to the aluminum sheet only at the trimming regions such that the cutting burrs point in opposite directions during the welding, and the cutting burrs of the steel sheet points upward during the welding, thereby forming a welding bead on the upper side and a lower side of the steel sheet and the upper side and a lower side of the aluminum sheet.
