This waste can be processed into an alternative fuel to replace coal through the torrefaction process, producin…
Welding is a process of joining materials using heat energy. Welding techniques are increasingly developing along with developments in the types and applications of these materials. Friction stir welding is a type of welding discovered by Wayne Thomas at The Welding Institute (TWI) in 1991. Friction stir welding is a welding method whose heat source comes from the friction that occurs…
Friction stir welding (FSW) is a solid-state welding method that does not require additional materials, introduced by The Welding Institute of the United Kingdom in 1991 as a joining technique applicable to polymer materials. The joining process uses friction generated by a rotating tool pin on the workpiece, causing the workpiece to melt and bond. This study aims to examine the effect …
High-density polyethylene (HDPE) is one of the most popular polymers due to its availability and competitive cost. Along with this, the need for more advanced processing technology forms has also increased, making material applications more convincing, one of which is joining technology. The friction stir welding (FSW) joining method is one of the methods with great potential in the joi…
Friction stir weld (FSW) is a solid-state welding process, where during the process it creates frictional force on the material as well as heat from the tool, namely the shoulder at the end of which there is a rotating pin that moves along the surface of the material. Several parameters that influence the results of friction stir welding include feed speed, rotating tool, welding tool, …
Welding is a process of joining materials by utilizing heat energy. The welding technique that is currently developing is Friction Stir Welding (FSW). FSW is a solid-state joining process using tool friction against the material as a heat source. The working principle of this welding process is friction arising from the rotation of the tool which is applied pressure on both surfaces of …
