Abstract:
This survey presents a literature review on friction stir welding (FSW) with a special focus on the dissimilar metal T-Joint. Friction stir welding is widely applied for similar and dissimilar metal welding. In current scenario, FSW is widely applied for several industries such as aerospace, automobile, reactors etc. FSW has an ability to weld dissimilar metals having different melting points. The main advantages of FSW process are very eco-friendly and produces less waste. Friction stir welded region have high strength, low distortion, no melt related defects. The absence of filler materials and air eliminates filler induced defect, and porosity. FSW technique is uses to produce T, lap and butt shaped welding and also used in hollow pipes, pressure vessels etc. This review shows the types, application and testing of T-joint welded by FSW process.
