Thermal energy is produced when objects are rubbed.
Friction welding is a bonding technique which uses this energy effectively and adds even higher pressure to it.
Friction Welding Mechanism
Thermal energy is produced when objects are rubbed.
Friction welding is a bonding technique which uses this energy effectively and adds even higher pressure to it.
One end of the object to be bonded is secured to prevent it rotating, and the other end which is mounted on the spindle is rotated.
By applying push pressure, pressure welding heat is produced on the contact surface, and this heat softens the part to be bonded.
Rotation is stopped when the temperature suitable for pressure welding is reached. By applying push pressure, two objects are then bonded.
