Abstract

Friction stir welding (FSW) has been widely acceptable in various welding applications nowadays due to its versatility like the ease in use and eco-friendly. FSW is a solid-phase joining process. It has the inherent property to weld aluminum and other such metals over conventional or solid/liquid phase joining process. FSW seems to be an efficient and one of the new developments in the field of joining process. In the present study, the Taguchi optimization technique is used to improve the hardness and other operational parameters on AA4015. Results show that for maximizing the hardness and optimizing operational parameters of the welded joint, the feed rate is the most influential factor.
