Rotary friction welding

From GAWDAwiki

Jump to: navigation, search

Rotary friction welding is the most common form of friction welding. It involves one component rotating against the other, and it is commonly used to assemble carbon-steel vehicle axles and sub-axles. It is also used to fabricate suspension rods, steering columns, gear box forks/driveshafts and engine valves.[1] The process is not only flexible and robust, but also tolerant to different qualities of materials. The parameters involved are the rotational speed, time and force applied. [2]
