Microstructural and mechanical data from the literature of friction stir processed (FSPed) cast aluminum alloys were reanalyzed. Results indicated that friction stir processing (FSP) produced more homogeneous microstructures, with finer eutectic Si particles, grains, and intermetallics. However, a relationship between microstructural measures and process parameters could not be established. Regardless of the resultant microstructure, structural casting defects, i.e., pores and oxide films, were reduced in size or completely eliminated after FSP. Consequently, ductility and fatigue life were drastically improved by FSP. Quality index analysis showed that some FSPed specimens have a higher structural quality than aerospace and premium quality castings, and can be used to determine the intrinsic properties of cast aluminum alloys.

The results obtained by ISIM Timisoara to the development of the friction stir welding process (FSW) have supported the extension of the researches on some derived processes, including friction stir processing (FSP). The experimental programs (the researches) were developed within complex research projects, aspects regarding the principle of the process, modalities and techniques of application, experiments for specific applications, being approached. The paper presents good results obtained by friction stir processing of cast aluminum alloys and copper alloys. The optimal process conditions, optimal characteristics of the processing tools were defined. The complex characterization of the processed areas was done, the advantages of the process applying being presented, especially for the cast aluminum alloys: EN AW 4047, EN AW 5083 and EN AW 7021. The characteristics of the processed areas are compared with those of the base materials. The results obtained are a solid basis for substantiating of some specific industrial applications, especially in the automotive, aeronautical / aerospace fields.
