FSW Tools for Demanding Aluminum: Al 7xxx and Al/li Materials

For these high-strength aluminum and alloy materials, our clients have encountered two types of difficulties. - Higher implementation efforts compared to common aluminum. - Increased cyclic fatigue and abrasion. Our innovative design limits the use of costly materials while ensuring performance and meeting welding specification requirements. - Enhanced quality control - Maintained performance - Guaranteed traceability - Optimized tool pricing: cheaper and faster (one manufacturing step) - Lighter (reduction in assembly thickness) - High mechanical strength, especially in fatigue - Corrosion-resistant, thanks to the use of aluminum - Perfectly sealed The replacement of riveting with FSW welding is becoming more common in the aerospace sector.
