OPTIMIZATION ON FRICTION WELDING OF ALUMINIUM ALLOY 6082 T6 USING RESPONSE SURFACE METHOD
Keywords:
Friction Welding, Aluminium Alloy, OptimizationAbstract
Welding of similar metals with the use of solid state welding has a great demand in many applications. In this study, tensile strength of the friction welding of Aluminium alloy 6082 T6 has been investigated. Various experiments are conducted using design of experiments. The effect of parameter over tensile strength has been analyzed. The composition of weld joint and fracture surface of tensile tested sample were analyzed by using Scanning Electron Microscope which reveals that the increase in friction pressure and forging pressure, the tensile strength has increased.
