Continuous-drive FW Inertia FW Radial FW Friction surfacing Advantages of FW Friction welding has a number of advantages over other joining processes (such as fusion welding, brazing, and diffusion bonding): Special attention to surface cleanliness is not necessary, because FRW tends to disrupt, displace, and finally remove surface films in weld flash (this does not apply to heavy mill or heat-treat scales, which can interfere with frictional heating). Advantages of FW Filler metal, flux, and shielding gas are not required. Unlike fusion welding, friction welding is not hazardous to operator health and is safer, because there is no metal spatter, radiation, fume, or electric hazard involving high voltage, arcs, and sparks. Defects associated with melting-solidification phenomena are not present in FRW, because it is a solid-state process. Advantages of FW It is possible to make transition joints of dissimilar metals that are difficult or even impossible to weld by other processes (for example, refractory and exotic metals). Lower labor costs, simple part design, simpler weld fixtures, lower energy requirements, and a short weld cycle (a matter of seconds) make the process cost effective for producing components normally made by other processes. Limitations of FW The welding area of at least one part must be rotationally symmetrical, so that the part can rotate about the axis of the welding plane. Typical part geometries that can be friction welded are: bar to bar, bar to tube, bar to plate, tube to tube, and tube to plate. This process is normally limited to making flat and angular (or conical) butt joints. Limitations of FW The material of at least one c
