| description | A novel friction stir welding method called projection friction stir spot welding (PFSSW) was introduced to produce safe and reliable welds by using a pinless tool and a specially-designed projection on the surface of a backing anvil. This projection along with the tool rotation speed plays an important role in having a reliable joint with excellent mechanical properties and good surface appearance. This welding technique can be widely developed in oil and gas, as well as in automotive, aerospace, and transportation, industry. The effect of tool rotation speed (1000, 1600, 2000 rpm) on the hardness, microstructure, and mechanical properties of 2024 aluminum alloy sheets was investigated. The surface appearance of the welding zone showed that the keyhole was not formed, and the appearance of the weld was almost smooth. Fracture surfaces of the failed specimens present the interfacial fracture at the tool rotation speed of 1000 rpm and circumferential fracture at tool rotation speed of 1600 and 2000 rpm. |
