Conclusion

By this Project, One can get best welding joint properties for

maximum tensile strength by applying different inputs for friction

stir welding . At the end of experiment at the weld point 40 we

get best mechanical properties (Hardness) of welded joint with

61 .324 MPa and 79 .095 MPa tensile strength for cylindrical tool

profile and tapered cylindrical tool profile respectively with tool

speed 1400 rpm and feed rate of 15 mm/min .

Procedure

Objective

Motive behind the project is to joint Aluminum and

copper alloys with solid state friction stir welding

process and analysis the effect of the tool shape

geometry and different tool position and speed .

Three major parameters is carried out first is rotation

speed of tool ( 620 , 930 , 1400 )rpm, second is

transverse speed and (12 , 15 )mm/min and in last the

tool position which is 2 mm .
