Abstract: Moving metal strips can be heat treated with any number or combination of dimensionally variable tempers across widths, lengths, or thicknesses of a metal strip. To provide dimensionally variable heat treatment, an apparatus can include one or more heating units suitable to increase the temperature of a metal strip moving proximate the apparatus to a heat treatment temperature. The apparatus can also include one or more cooling units positioned near the heating units to absorb heat and cool the metal strip to minimize the amount of heat transferred from a first region of the metal strip that is to be treated to a second region of the metal strip that is not to be treated.

Abstract: Disclosed are welds formed from improved resistance spot welding. Resistance spot welding includes positioning a first metal sheet and a second metal sheet between two electrodes, contacting the two electrodes together on to opposing surfaces of the first metal sheet and the second metal sheet, and applying at least a minimum current to the first metal sheet and the second metal sheet through the two electrodes to form a weld having a minimum weld size to join the first metal sheet with the second metal sheet. At least one of the first metal sheet and the second metal sheet is a fusion alloy where the composition of at least one outer layer of the sheet is different from the composition of the core of the sheet.
