Effect of welding speed on mechanical properties and corrosion resistance rates of filler induced friction stir welded AA6082 and AA5052 joints

Friction Stir Welding (FSW) was carried out to examine the influence of filler materials and varying process parameters on the microhardness and the joints corrosion resistance properties. Aluminium alloys 6082 and 5052, having 8 mm thickness was joined by varying parameters. The primary process par...

description Friction Stir Welding (FSW) was carried out to examine the influence of filler materials and varying process parameters on the microhardness and the joints corrosion resistance properties. Aluminium alloys 6082 and 5052, having 8 mm thickness was joined by varying parameters. The primary process parameters are rotational speed, tool travel speed, plunge depth, filler holes centre distance and filler ratio. The hardness at the weld nugget zone and corrosion rate evaluations were analyzed. The best results were obtained for the parameter combinations of 1150 rpm tool rotation, 130 mm min ^−1 tool travel, 0.2 mm tool plunge, the filler holes centre distance 2 mm and a powder filler made of 95% magnesium and 5% chromium.
