The Effect of Traveling and Rotation Speeds on Mechanical Properties during Friction Stir Welding of Dissimilar Al Alloys

Article Preview

Abstract:

Interest in Al alloys for ship construction has increased because of the advantages of high speed with lightweight, increased load capacity, and ease of recycling compared to fiber-reinforced plastic. This study determined that the optimum traveling and rotation speeds for friction stir welding of 5052-O and 6061-T6 Al alloys for shipbuilding applications are 61 mm/min and 1600 RPM, respectively.
