New Spot Welding System
The Joining lab at Swerim has invested in a complete spot welding system (AluSpatz from Matuschek) that is specifically designed for welding challenging material combinations, including aluminum.

The equipment also offers new opportunities for studying the relationships between material properties, process data, and final weld quality.
Timely Investment
Our investment is well-timed. The automotive industry is facing significant challenges related to electrification and the transition to circular and fossil-free materials. These changes also bring new demands on joining techniques previously used.
Within the industry, spot welding remains a leading joining technique expected to maintain its importance in the long term, as the process is cost-effective, highly productive, and suitable from both a sustainability and occupational health perspective.
