Summary of the lecture
Learn to explain causes and apply mitigation steps through practical guidance in this self-paced microlearning module.
This course introduces Liquid Metal Embrittlement (LME) as a key challenge in resistance spot welding of zinc-coated advanced high-strength steels (AHSS). It explains its causes, contributing factors, and impact on material performance, while outlining four practical steps to mitigate LME through improved material selection, testing methods, and optimized welding practices.
Learning Outcomes
At the end of this course, participants will be able to:
- Explain what Liquid Metal Embrittlement (LME) is and when it occurs.
- Identify key factors that contribute to LME during resistance spot welding.
- Describe the importance of material selection and updated AHSS grades in reducing LME risk.
- Recognize the role of testing protocols in evaluating LME sensitivity.
- Apply practical mitigation strategies to reduce LME occurrence in production.
