Abstract

Friction stir welding (FSW) is a solid-state joining process. A non-consumable tool is used to join two facing workpieces without melting the workpiece material. There are various advantages of this process over fusion welding processes. The various type of defects associated are typical to this process and haven’t been investigated in a systematic manner so far. The main effort is done on the various parameters that influence the process. The paper presents an overview of different types of defects at friction stir welding of aluminium alloy 5083. In order to explain the reasons for their occurrence.
