An effective way to reduce the weight of vehicle body seems to be application of new materials, and such trend is remarkable. Among the various materials for automobile body, stainless steel sheets and cold rolled steel sheets are under the interests. However, in order to guarantee reliability of new material and to establish the long life fatigue design criteria for body structure, it is necessary to assess spot weldability and fatigue strength of spot welded lap joints fabricated under optimized spot welding condition. In this paper, spot weldability of stainless steel sheets, STS301L and STS304L, and cold rolled steel sheets, SPCC and SPCD. Fatigue strength of lap joints spot welded between similar and dissimilar materials were also assessed.

The paper deals with the comparison of surface hardness and porosity of stainless steel 316L (1.4404) produced by additive technology (SLM) and cold rolled steel. The subject of the paper is a comparison of two sets of samples where the first set of samples was made on a Renishaw AM400 with a laser output of 200 W and 400 W. In each set of samples, were the samples without heat-treated and heat-treated by annealing. Measurement of porosity and surface hardness were performed on all samples. The surface hardness of the material was evaluated by a static test according to Brinell CSN EN 10003-1. The porosity measurement was performed by the optical method. The measured values were compared with the reference material, which was cold-rolled steel, in which both the porosity and the hardness of the surface were measured.
