Friction Stir Welding (FSW), Weld Aluminium Alloys |
Abstract |
Friction stir welding (FSW), is a relatively new solid state joining process patented in 1991[1]. It uses friction to generate heat and weld the plates in solid state. FSW was initially used to weld aluminium alloys, and is well suited for joining aluminum alloys[2]. It has an advantage over fusion welding when joining highly alloyed aluminium. High quality joints may even be made in aluminum alloys. FSW is environment friendly and energy efficient as compared to most of the welding processes. |
