The metal transfer process with different welding parameters in rotating arc narrow gap horizontal welding is successfully observed by the high-speed photography system. The effects of wire rotating frequency on metal transfer process in rotating arc narrow gap horizontal welding are novelly explored. The metal transfer with different wire rotating frequency presents different modes. The results indicate that the droplet transfer has stable process with the rotating frequency of 5-20 Hz. And the weld formation is quite shapely. But with the high rotating frequency of 50 Hz, the metal transfer process is not acceptable and the weld formation is very pool. Metal transfer process is one of the most important factors of effecting the weld formation in rotating arc horizontal welding process besides the molten pool behavior and welding thermal circles.

Stirring tool is one of the important factor that contribute to the successful of Friction Stir Welding (FSW). Role of tool, is to heat the welding zone and stir the material along the process. Many studies have been conducted by other researchers to improve the performance of stirring tool. Similar to this work, it is aimed to investigate and analyze the effect of stirring tool surface condition on wear characteristics in friction stir welding process. Four tools have been fabricated with pre-determined surface condition. Tool 1: H13 without heat treatment and without coating. Tool 2: H13 with heat treatment only. Tool 3: H13 with TiCN coating only and Tool 4: H13 with heat treatment and with TiCN coating. Friction stir welding was performed to test and verify the performance of fabricated tools. Process parameter used are 1270 RPM for rotating speed while 218 mm/min for welding speed. From the result, Tool 4 performed better in terms of physical wear as well as wear rate.
