Why attend this webinar?

Many Friction Stir Welding projects fail to achieve their expected performance, not because of the machine itself, but because of incorrect tool selection or a misunderstanding of the physical principles that govern the process.

Poor weld quality, inconsistent results, limited welding speed and premature tool wear are often symptoms of a few fundamental issues. Identifying these root causes is essential to building a robust, repeatable and cost-effective FSW process.

Join this exclusive Stirweld webinar to understand why FSW tools sometimes underperform and discover practical guidelines to optimize your welding results.

What you'll discover:

• The physical principles that determine FSW performance, including the influence of tool geometry, welding speed, rotational speed and forging force.

• The four most common causes of FSW tool underperformance and how they affect weld quality, productivity, repeatability and tool lifetime.

• How defects such as wormholes, flash, lack of penetration and hooking originate, and how to eliminate them by selecting the right tool and process parameters.

• A practical methodology for choosing the right FSW tool according to your application, production objectives and material requirements.

• A live Q&A session with a Stirweld's FSW expert to discuss your own welding challenges.
