Abstract |
|
Conventional welding techniques are used to weld hard materials. Problem occurs while welding soft material. They cannot weld soft materials like aluminum, copper etc. To solve this problem Friction stir welding is used. Friction stir welding is a solid-state joining process uses a third body tool to join two facing surfaces. It is economical process. But as the tooling required for such is costly; it can be performed on drilling machine with suitable modification. The aim of this work is to reconfigure and utilize a drilling machine successfully to produce friction stir welding of aluminium alloy which is also energy and cost efficient. |
