Friction Stir Welding in the Aircraft Production

Abstract:

The paper presents the results of experimental development of the technology of friction stir welding to obtain a nonseparable connection of a special aerospace aluminum, titanium and magnesium alloys, high-temperature steels. Regularities and models of heat balance in the welding zone have been determined, which make it possible to predict the technological possibilities of high-speed friction welding. It is established that high-speed friction welding by mixing allows to obtain a high-quality connection at lower loads on the design of the equipment. On the basis of studies of macro-and microstructure, microhardness, level of residual stresses and strength tests, technological recommendations on the choice of welding conditions and conditions were obtained. Presented of experimental and industrial development of special equipment, high-speed friction welding, design and manufacturing of high hardness tools of complex spatial shapes for welding aircraft materials.
