Abstract

Friction Stir Welding (FSW) is a solid-state welding process used for welding similar and dissimilar materials. FSW is especially suitable to join sheet Al alloys, and this technique allows different material couples to be welded continuously. In this study, Al alloys and commercially pure Cu will be produced at three different tool rotation speeds( 620,930,1400 rpm) and Two different tool traverse speeds ( 12,15 mm/min) with One tool position (2 mm) by friction stir welding. The project aim is to weld two plates of Al alloys & pure Cu using different tool profiles and to optimize the parameters like tool rotational speed, tool profile, depth of cut, feed etc. And analyse the influence of the microstructures and mechanical properties of friction stir Welding. Tensile and Hardness tests will be used to determine the mechanical properties.
