Further Development of the FSW Floating-Bobbin Technique
Status: Completed
Date Announced: January, 2012
Project reference: 22335
Following the completion of Group Sponsored Project 18887 “Assessment of Bobbin Friction Stir Welding for the Joining of Aluminium Alloys” additional work in this area is proposed to develop the technique further especially joining thin section aluminium alloys and also robotic floating-bobbin FSW on linear and curvilinear components.
