INTRODUCTION
Friction stir welding (FSW) is a solid state joining process.
Invented at The Welding Institute (TWI) of Cambridge, UK in 1991.
Utilizes a non consumable rotating tool consisting of a concentric threaded tool pin and tool shoulder.
Transforms the metal from a solid state into a “Plastic like” state and the mechanically stir the materials together under pressure to form a welded joint.

Slide 22
DEFECTS IN FSW WELDS
Formation of defects are mainly due to improper material flow or due to geometric factors.
Lack of penetration
Lack of fusion
Surface grooves
Excessive flash
Tunnels
Voids
Kissing bonds
![Page 23: Friction Stir Welding Report Ent111](https://reader030.vdocuments.site/reader030/viewer/2022013113/577cc7461a28aba711a0802b/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Slide 23
DEFECTS FROM TOO COLD WELD
Too cold welding condition results in work hardening of the material.
Causes dry slip between the tool and work piece.
Lack of surface fills/ voids, channel defects are the main defects due to insufficient heat generation.
The insufficient heat generation causes improper material mixing and thus responsible for non-bonding.
Author Year Findings
Kim et al. 2006 Evaluate that at lower rotational speed and high welding speed insufficient heat input is generated resulting in cavity/ groove like defects
![Page 24: Friction Stir Welding Report Ent111](https://reader030.vdocuments.site/reader030/viewer/2022013113/577cc7461a28aba711a0802b/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Slide 24
MULTI-PASS FSW
FSW is capable of producing welds with less defects but stillcomplete elimination of process upset is not possible.
Much researchers has been devoted to understand the effect ofprocess parameters on defect formation in order to optimize theprocess parameters for FSW. Still optimization of processparameters is mostly done by trial and error.
In the past few decades, there has been research going on in thefield of MP FSW/ FSP where it is more desirable to repair thedefective portion of the weld than to throw as a scrap.
One of the technique is to repair the defects is simply
RE-WELDING using nominal process parameter.
![Page 25: Friction Stir Welding Report Ent111](https://reader030.vdocuments.site/reader030/viewer/2022013113/577cc7461a28aba711a0802b/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)

Slide 28
ADVANTAGES OF CONTRA-ROTATING FSW TOOLS
New variant technique of FSW/FSP.
Requires less clamping and helps to work with high welding speed.
Resultant force counters each other so require low securing force.
Improves the weld integrity by disrupting and fragmenting the residualoxide layer remaining within the first weld region by the follower tool.
Weld over the first run produces further break-up and disposal ofoxides with no loss of mechanical properties.
Second tool does not have to robust as the leading tool.
Motion produced is similar to Re-stir ,but twin stir produces fastertravel speeds and in addition, efficiency of FSW can be furtherimproved with the use of two tools.

Slide 33
Additional changes made against old attachment
In the first attachment the main tool was tightened with the colletbed or hanger of the vertical milling machine. The single tool colletassembly is triangular push type, so when it is tightened from theupper side of the bolt it directly pulled the first tool, for that reasonthere was always a height difference between the two tool eventhough they are identical to each other. This problem is resolved inthe newly fabricated attachment.
In this case, the rotor plate of the attachment is directly tightenedwith the movement unit of the milling machine. So there is nocontact with the collet assembly of the machine and no heightdifference between the two tools.
![Page 34: Friction Stir Welding Report Ent111](https://reader030.vdocuments.site/reader030/viewer/2022013113/577cc7461a28aba711a0802b/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
Slide 34
In the first attachment two normal ball bearings was used near tothe collets of the two tools. But in new attachment four ZZ ballbearings is used, two pushed upward inside to the pressure plateand two to the upper side of the gear assembly. Two bearingssupport the secondary tool which helps in rotating the tool verysmoothly and independently without any vibration.
Distance between the two tools in the old attachment was 38.6 mmwhich is more than the new attachment and is 36.8 mm.
Collet length and hub unit is small as compared to the older onewhich eliminates the slack and vibration while running.
