Study on Effect of Different Tool Design & Material in Friction Stir Welding
Journal Title: International Journal of engineering Research and Applications - Year 2017, Vol 7, Issue 5
Abstract
Friction Stir Welding (FSW) is a solid state joining process that involves joining of metals without fusion or filler materials. The frictional heat is produced from a rapidly rotating non- consumable high strength tool pin that extends from a cylindrical shoulder. The process is particularly applicable for aluminum alloys but can be extended to other products also. Plates, sheets and hollow pipes can be welded by this method. The process is also suitable for automation. The weld produced is of finer micro structure and superior in characteristics to that parent metal. FSW finds application in shipbuilding, aerospace, railway, electrical and automotive industry. The limitations of FSW are reduced by intensive research and development. Its cost effectiveness and ability to weld dissimilar metals makes it a commonly used welding process in recent times.
