“…Therefore, this technology complies with the sustainable development goals 7,9, and 12 [41][42][43]. Fiber laser [44][45][46][47] or carbon dioxide laser [48][49][50] was also suggested to join PEEK polymeric rods. In addition, COMSOL [51] or ANSYS [52] simulation software can be used to predict the maximum interface temperature, total deformation, or equivalent von Mises stress [53] under different rotational speed, axial pressure, friction time, welding time, feed rare, or burn-off length.…”

Polyetheretherketone (PEEK) is a promising biomaterial due to its excellent mechanical properties. Most PPEK manufacturing methods include additive manufacturing, injection molding, grinding, pulse laser drilling, or incremental sheet forming. Rotary friction welding (RFW) is a promising bonding technique in many industries. However, very few studies have focused on the RFW of PEEK. Conventionally, the number of revolutions is fixed during the welding process. Remarkably, the rotary friction welding of PEEK polymer rods using an innovative variable rotational speed is investigated in this study. The average bending strength of the welded part using a three-stage transformation rotational speed was enhanced by about 140% compared with a rotational speed of 1000 rpm. The advantage of computer numerical controlled RFW of PEEK using variable rotational speed is a reduced cycle time of RFW. A reduction in cycle time of about 6% can be obtained using the proposed RFW with a three-stage transformation rotational speed. The innovative approach provides low environmental pollution and high energy efficiency and complies with sustainable development goals.

“…In addition, the rate of growth of a fatigue crack was not investigated using the Paris law [ 47 , 48 , 49 ]. Carbon dioxide laser [ 50 , 51 , 52 ] or fiber laser [ 52 , 53 , 54 , 55 ] have also been recommended as methods with which to join polymer rods. These topics are interesting research topics and are currently being investigated.…”

Understanding the fatigue behaviors of weld joints is significant in engineering practice. Rotary friction welding (RFW) can join the additively manufactured polymer components. Until now, no research has focused on the fatigue behavior of polymer components jointed via RFW. This study investigates the fatigue life of ABS/PC dissimilar components fabricated via RFW and proposes the fatigue mechanism based on the failure structure. This work uses five different cyclic loads and rotational speeds to investigate the fatigue life. The fatigue life of the RFW of ABS/PC dissimilar rods is better compared with the pure ABS and pure PC specimens due to weld and integrity microstructural changes resulting from the combination of ABS and PC materials. The number of cycles until the rupture of RFW of ABS/PC dissimilar components (y) can be determined by the cyclic load (x) according to the prediction equation of y = −838.25x2 − 2035.8x + 67,262. The fatigue life of the RFW of ABS/PC dissimilar components increase with the increased rotational speed. The number of cycles until rupture (y) can be determined by the different rotational speeds (x) according to the prediction equation of y = 315.21x2 + 2710.4x + 32,124.
