Electrical Components

In the paper are presented some preliminary results regarding the possibilities of using of the friction stir welding process (FSW) and FSW assisted with TIG (FSW – TIG) welding for joining of the electrical components in the automotive industry. Couples of dissimilar materials approached in experiments were Aluminium EN AW 1200 and Copper Cu99, with thicknesses in conformity with real cases in the production process. The results obtained for butt welding an overlap welding of different thicknesses of materials (aluminium thickness s1 = 2mm and copper thickness s2 = 5mm) are presented. There are some general conclusions regarding the possibilities of joining the two materials under the specified conditions.

Ring Deformation

In this paper, the dynamometer for measuring the forces of the tool in FSW process was designed. The design principle of the dynamometer was adopted octagonal ring deformation to get the forces in FSW process. The design dynamometer was calibrated, the result showed the linearity and cross sensitivity of the dynamometer in allowed range, the worked reliable of the dynamometer was good. It can be used to measure the forces in FSW process.
