Friction stir spot welding is successfully used for the bonnet (hood) and rear doors of the Mazda RX-8 and the boot lid of the Toyota Prius. Wheels are friction stir welded at Simmons Wheels, UT Alloy Works and Fundo. [ 59 ]
In friction stir spot welding, individual spot welds are created by pressing a rotating tool with high force onto the top surface of two sheets that overlap each other in the lap joint. The frictional heat and the high pressure plastify the workpiece material, so that the tip of the pin plunges into the joint area between the two sheets and ...
Friction stir welding. Friction stir welding (FSW) is a solid-state joining process that uses a non-consumable tool to join two facing workpieces without melting the workpiece material. Heat is generated by friction between the rotating tool and the workpiece material, which leads to a softened region near the FSW tool.
Friction stir processing (FSP) is a method of changing the properties of a metal through intense, localized plastic deformation. [ 2 ] : 7 [ 3 ] : 1117 This deformation is produced by forcibly inserting a non-consumable tool into the workpiece, and revolving the tool in a stirring motion as it is pushed laterally through the workpiece.
The oldest welding process in the world. Oxides must be removed by flux or flames. Damascus steel: Friction welding: 42: FRW Thin heat affected zone, oxides disrupted by friction, needs sufficient pressure Aerospace industry, railway, land transport Friction stir welding: 43: FSW A rotating non-consumable tool is traversed along the joint line

Under Hinrichs's leadership AOS produced over 100 million electron beam welded tailored blanks, and installed and operated over 1,000 gas metal arc welding robots – the largest such application, worldwide, at that time. He was one of the earliest proponents of the industrial application of friction stir welding to
