An Overview Of The Development Of Friction Stir Welding

  Rachna Pandey,  Dr R. S Jadoun

This review paper illustrates process, components, application and advancement of Friction Stir Welding (FSW) over conventional fusion welding processes. As compared to fusion welding, this welding technique significantly lowered the energy input and distortion which results as improved welding properties, offers less residual stresses, less distortion and fewer weld defects. Therefore, FSW welding technique minimizes the issues associated with other joining processes such as brazing, soldering and fusion welding. This paper emphasis on advantages of using FSW than conventional fusion welding and also its vital role in different industries such as automotive, aerospace and manufacturing industry to develop aluminium alloys and steel alloys joints.

Keywords- Friction Stir Welding, components, parameters and applications.
