ANALYSIS OF ALUMINIUM ALLOY AA6061 DIFFERENT PROFILES OF JOINT USING FRICTION STIR WELDING

Friction stir welding (FSW), a solid-State welding technique, is being extensively used in similar as well as dissimilar joining of Al Mg, Cu, Ti, and their alloys.In the present study, the two aluminum plates are joined.The variable parameters that affect much are taken as input parameters.They are tool rotation speed, tool traverse speed and Three different joint profile like straight, inclined, semicircle.the paper discus the influence of hardness, tensile strength, impact strength.The work material conducted AA6061 T6.Taguchi method based on L18 so used as DOE.
