Effect of Tool Tilt on Formation of Tunnel in Friction Stir Welded 5083 Joints: An Experimental Study
Abstract: Friction stir welding (FSW) being a solid-state joining process is immune to the various defects faced in traditional fusion welding process. However, defects such as voids, joint line remnants and tunnel defects are common imperfections in FSW. In the present study, an attempt has been made to investigate the effect of tool tilt on the formation of tunnel defect, while keeping all other process parameters constant. Tool tilt is a …
