Friction stir welding copper offers a solid-state joining method with unique benefits. But copper’s high thermal conductivity challenges weld quality. This article explores these challenges and solutions. You’ll learn about tool selection, process optimization, and best practices for superior copper
Magnesium alloys are key for lightweight parts but hard to weld well. Traditional welding often causes defects and weak joints. FSW magnesium alloys offer a solid-state solution that preserves strength and quality. In this post, you’ll learn why FSW works better and how it improves lightweight magne
Choosing the right fsw tool for aluminum alloys is critical if you want consistent weld quality and efficient production. In 2026, you will find that PCBN tools excel with the 2xxx and 7xxx aluminum series, tool steel (such as H13 and M2) suits the 6xxx series, and tungsten-rhenium tools handle dema
