  • Friction stir welding

    The friction welding (see: Friction Stir Welding) belongs to the group of friction welding processes and is particularly suitable for joining non-ferrous metals with low melting temperature and mixed compounds. The method is based on the use of a rotating pin which is guided between the contact surfaces of two workpieces. The friction heat produced thereby ensures a plasticization of the material and allows welding of the workpieces. Stir friction welding produces particularly high-quality welded joints with excellent fatigue properties and is therefore very popular in the metal processing industry.
