November 25, 2025 10:00 AM Europe/Paris

Why attend this webinar?
In today’s global defense landscape, production speed, material strength, and reliability are more critical than ever. As military programs face increasing performance and time-to-market pressures, traditional welding methods are reaching their limits.
Join this exclusive Stirweld webinar to discover how Friction Stir Welding (FSW) is transforming defense manufacturing, offering unmatched strength, repeatability and productivity while simplifying your industrialization process.
What you’ll discover:
The 4 key manufacturing challenges defense suppliers are facing today and how FSW technology helps overcome them.
Why FSW is the right process proven on all fronts for high-performance aluminum and advanced alloys.
How FSW boosts production speed and weld strength while cutting inspection times and non-quality costs.
Real-world applications such as cold plates used in radar and aircraft cooling systems, stiffened panels for military trucks and vehicles, brackets for radar and aerospace assemblies, and tanks for aircraft fuel or hydraulic systems.
