An aluminum 
alloy and steel optimized 
welding method based on magnetic control resistance 
spot welding comprises the steps that a steel plate and an aluminum 
alloy plate are arranged between an 
electrode and a controllable 
magnetic field, 
Joule heat is generated in the steel plate by applying 
welding current, and the temperature of the side, close to the steel plate, of the aluminum 
alloy plate is evenly increased through the blocking effect of a high-resistivity oxidation film between the steel plate and the aluminum alloy plate; and the side, close to the steel plate, of the aluminum alloy plate is molten to form molten aluminum alloy, the molten aluminum alloy flows and is stirred at a high speed under the action of 
Lorentz force generated by a 
magnetic field and current, aggregation of 
oxide film defects near an interface is inhibited, and thin and uniform 
intermetallic compounds are formed by heterogeneous materials on the two sides of the interface. By heating a steel side 
resistor, the heat input of the aluminum side is reduced, the 
thinning of the aluminum plate is reduced, the surface indentation of the aluminum plate is eliminated, and the thickness of an interface 
intermetallic compound layer is controlled; and 
lorentz force is generated through interaction of an external 
magnetic field and current, molten aluminum alloy is driven to flow at a high speed, the aluminum side nugget structure and defect distribution are improved, and the mechanical performance of a welded joint is improved. By avoiding direct contact between a 
copper electrode and an aluminum plate, 
electrode abrasion is reduced, and the performance, appearance quality and 
welding spot quality stability of an aluminum steel 
spot welding joint are improved.
