“…It is a solid state process where a non-consumable rotating tool with a specially designed pin and shoulder is inserted into the abutting edges of sheets or plates to be joined and subsequently traversed along the joint line [1]. Heat is generated by the friction between the tool and the work pieces, as well as the plastic deformation [2][3][4][5][6]. It is an ideal process for producing low-cost and high performance joints.…”

Abstract:In this study, the microstructure and strength properties of friction stir welded 6061-T6 aluminum alloy to ultra-low carbon steel have been investigated using different advancing speeds of 100, 200, and 400 mm·min −1 at constant rotation rate. Microstructure observations have been conducted by optical and scanning electron microscopy. The joint strength was evaluated on a tensile testing machine. The effect of advancing speed on the shear load of a joint has been found, as well as a relationship between microstructures and mechanical properties.

Abstract-A study of the friction welding process is carried out for Al 6063-T6. 3D model of the rotary friction welding is made. Thermo transient analysis and static structural analysis is carried out and steps were made to modify a conventional lathe to rotary friction welding set up to obtain friction welding with four different (250, 500, 775, and 1200) rpm and to find out its mechanical properties The simulation process are carried out with ANSYS workbench.

“…The earlier investigation of the FSP process revealed that the torque is more strongly influenced by the rotational speed rather than by travelling speed. The relationship between the torque and volume per revolution can be described as an exponential relationship [11]. The effect of travelling speed on torque can be approximately modelled by a linear function [12].…”

Abstract. Friction Stir Processing (FSP) is a novel solid state processing technique which can be used for microstructural modification of surface layers in metallic materials. This paper analyzes the effects of FSP process parameters on spindle torque acting on the tool and on the tool temperature. It has been shown that an increase in the rotational speed brings about a decrease in the torque and an increase of temperature. For temperature estimation in the stir zone a numerical model was applied, while for predicting a relationship between the spindle torque acting on the tool, rotational and travelling speeds and the down force, the artificial neural networks approach was employed. Light and electron (scanning and transmission) microscopy investigation showed that the FSP process reduces porosity and produces a more uniform distribution of second-phase particles.
