Robotic friction stir welding: the state of the art

Description

The viability of robotic friction stir welding (FSW) has been enhanced by the development of robots with payloads up to 500 kg, with enhanced arm stiffness and improved force control capability. A robot welding system is described which has features peculiar to friction stir welding, including software systems, teaching procedures, force-controlled positioning, data recording, and stop procedures. Using the welding of aluminium alloy 6061-T6 flanges to an aluminium alloy 6063-T4 rectangular box section to produce an automotive chassis component, the costs of single axis FSW, multi-axis FSW, robot MIG and robot FSW costs are compared.
