Design of a support system for a re-configured milling machine to achieve friction stir welds

Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceedingConference contributionpeer-review

Abstract

The detailed design of a clamping and support system for a reconfigured milling machine to produce friction stir welds is reported in this paper. Two different concepts were considered and subjected to performance evaluation. The selected design concept is expected to effectively clamp and support the workpiece during the process of friction stir welding to achieve a good integrity.
