Welding performance of a homemade friction stir welding tool

Homemade Friction Stir Welding (FSW) Tool utilizing conventional milling machine has been developed. The FSW tool made from mild steel was designed and fabricated. Experimental investigation of FSW process of the Aluminum alloy specimens to observe its mechanical performances was performed. To evalu...
