Friction Stir Welding (FSW) is a solid-state welding process that joins two metal pieces without melting them. This process was invented at The Welding Institute (TWI) in 1991 and has grown in popular...
Over the last 10 years, friction stir welding has been considered one of the most important innovations in the field of welding. It is a solid-state joining procedure that is versatile, environmentall...
The fsw friction stir welding process was invented by Wayne Thomas of the Cambridge Welding Institute in the United Kingdom in 1991. TWI further developed and patented this process.Introduction of fsw...
What is the difference between friction welding and fsw friction stir welding?Friction welding is a solid-state joining method that uses mechanical energy as the energy source. It uses the heat genera...
In the welding process, welding speed mainly affects the heat input and high-temperature residence time of the stirring pin. When the welding speed is slow, on the one hand, more heat is input per uni...
Ⅰ.Understanding the friction stir welding processNo other welding consumables such as welding rods, wires, fluxes and shielding gases are required in the friction stir welding process, the only consu...
