Abstract
Friction Stir Welding (FSW) is a solid-state joining technique. It is employed to avoid the melting of aluminium, which is more efficient. The objective of this work is to study the properties of friction stir welded joints with AA2024 and AA5052. A friction stir tool, an H13 cylindrical profile was used. The stir zone evaluates the hardness, wear, and impact tests that are performed. The welded joint's metallurgical characterization was investigated by Optical Microscope and Scanning Electron Microscope. Mechanical tests are hardness, tensile, wear and impact carried out. The hardness increase and impact energy has increased in the weld zone. The corrosion tests are performed on the chemical properties of the welded joints. The process parameters of tool transverse speed and rotational speed were optimized. The aluminium alloys AA2024 and AA5052 are widely employed in various industrial applications.
