The invention relates to the field of
welding wire manufacturing, in particular to a preparation method of an aluminum and aluminum
alloy welding wire electrochemically plated with a Zn+Cu / Re
composite coating and applied to
robot welding. A pure aluminum or aluminum
alloy wire rod is used as the matrix. Pretreatment, electrochemical plating of the Zn+Cu / Re
composite coating and post-treatment areconducted on the surface. The electrochemically plated Zn+Cu / Re
composite coating has the functions of reducing welding
smoke, improving the
porosity resistance of the welding wire and improving
solid lubrication and meanwhile fills up pits in the surface of the welding wire matrix, and the electric
conductivity and surface quality of the welding wire are improved; the bonding force and strengthof the Zn+Cu / Re composite
coating are high, the aluminum or
copper peeling phenomenon is avoided, the Zn+Cu / Re composite
coating is high in compactness, good in
rust resistance and resistant to wear,Zn can reduce welding
smoke and splashes, and Re can refine plating layer crystals and reduce the
void ratio; and meanwhile,
molten bath stirring is enhanced, a
molten bath is purified, crystals are refined, pores on the surface and on the inner portion of a
welding joint are thoroughly eradicated, and the
porosity resistance of the welding wire is improved.
