An Experimental Analysis and Process Parameter Optimization on Friction Stir Welded Dissimilar Alloys

The aim of this exertion is to examine on the tensile strength of dissimilar aluminium sheets are (AA6063 and AA5052) joined by FSW. The two aluminium sheets are arranged in a line with perpendicular rolling directions of the tool. The sheets are successfully welded and the welded sheets are tested under tension at room temperature in order to examine the strength. The two aluminium sheets are arranged in a line with perpendicular rolling directions of the tool. The Taguchi L9 experimental technique is picked to build the quantities of welding tests. The ideal range of process parameters and their possessions upon the tensile strength of the weld joints is analysed by ANOVA. The sheets are successfully welded and the welded sheets are tested under tension and hardness at room temperature in order to examine the strength. The result shows that the welding speed is 800rpm, feed is 30 mm / min and tilt angle 1.5 are the influential process parameters to join these dissimilar joints.
