NanoSteel, which develops advanced high-strength steels (AHSS) for manufacturing, has a new alloy, NXG™ 1200, designed to address the need for weight reduction and safety enhancement in the automotive market. Recently, EWI helped NanoSteel evaluate and validate the weldability of this new sheet steel both to itself and to other commonly used sheet steels.

EWI Senior Engineer Dave Workman has written “Resistance Spot Welding of NanoSteel NXG™ 1200 to Other Materials,” which highlights EWI’s evaluation of this new material and it’s successful validation. To read the full story, click here.
