Similar metals of Al6082 are welded by using En19 taper square tool

Abstract

FSSW is used a lot of area which are from marine to aerospace industries. alloy has a lot of advantages of the other materials. FSSW is effected with tool rotational speed, tool transverse speed, dwell time and tool plunge depth. One of them is weight. With the reference to the research work In this paper two flat plates of similar metals (Al6082-Al6082) of 2.2 mm thickness & 36.2mm width are subjected to a solid state welding at 900rpm using the EN19 tool. The tensile-shear test results showed that the FSSW specimens are better than the specimens welded by the conventional FSSW process at all tool rotational speeds with using different tool pin profiles. The minimum tensile shear load obtained from the conventional friction stir spot welds was an ultimate load value of 2.040KN.
