Abstract

Friction Stir Welding is a solid state thermo mechanical joining process that involves joining of metals without fusion or filler materials. The process is particularly applicable for aluminium alloys by using conventional milling machine but can be extended to other products also. Plates, sheets and hollow pipes can be welded by this method. The frictional heat is produced from a rapidly rotating non-consumable high strength tool pin that extends from a cylindrical shoulder. The process is also suitable for automation. The overall aim of this study is to get the optimum parameters for the materials under considerations Tool rotational speed (A), Welding speed (B) and Tool tilt angle(C) to investigate the Ultimate tensile strength(R1), Yield Tensile strength(R2) & Percentage Elongation(R3).
