Experimental Investigation on Aluminium Alloyusing FrictionStirWelding

Friction stir welding is a relatively new joining process which involves the following metals without fusion of tiller materials. The amount of the heat conducted into the work piece dictates a successful process which is defined by the quality, shape and micro structure of the processed zone as well as the residual stress and the distortion of the work piece. The amount of the heat gone to the total dictates the life of the tool and the capability of the tool to produce a good processed zone.
