RWMA LiteratureTo promote the resistance welding process, the RWMAoffers a variety of publications, articles, videos, schoolsand manuals, some of which include:

Resistance Welding ManualThe most “authoritative text” of the industry. Describesthe entire resistance welding process, including theory,methods, materials, equipment and accessories throughhundreds of pages of text, photos and graphs.

The Basics of Resistance WeldingA comprehensive training video that covers all fourprocesses—spot, projection, seam and flash/butt weld-ing. It explains the basic principles of these processes,the components of the machines, electrodes, tooling,controls and transformers, including basic machine setup. It is a great tool to introduce your new and experi-enced personnel to the resistance welding process. Alsoavailable on DVD.

Resistance Welding Manual, Revised 4th EditionThe Resistance Welding Manufacturing Alliance has setthe standard for resistance welding worldwide. RWMA’smost authoritative text about resistance welding industryis an absolute must for anyone who wants to increaseproduction capabilities, upgrade product quality andmaximize the use of manufacturing resources. TheResistance Welding Manual, Revised 4th Editiondescribes the entire resistance welding process includ-ing theory, methods, materials, equipment and acces-sories. The revised edition includes many new featuressuch as updated weld processes, new graphic format foreasier reading of weld schedules and information onnewer metal alloys, such as hot dip galvanized and elec-tro-plated steel.

Bulletin #5 – Resistance Welding Control StandardsAn extensive publication that examines Single PhaseAC, Three Phase AC, Frequency Converter and Invertercontrols. The bulletin discusses general standards, ter-minal markings plus connections, contactors, and enclo-sure standards used in resistance welding controls.

Bulletin #14 – Maintenance Manual for ResistanceWelding MachinesTips on installation, maintenance recommendations,including quality control and preventative maintenanceschedules. Geared for both maintenance personnel andthe operator. A “troubleshooting” section is included.

Bulletin #16 – Resistance Welding EquipmentStandardsA comprehensive bulletin consisting of RWMA stan-dards for welding equipment, including electrical, elec-trode, and fluid-power standards.

Bulletin #34 – Manufacturers’ Cross Reference ofStandard Resistance Welding Electrode Numbersand AlloysIncludes an extensive cross reference of standard resist-ance welding electrodes and alloys recognized by theRWMA.
