Abstract

Tensile strength of Aluminum A6061 joint produced by spinning friction welding (SFW) with various chamfer angles was studied. Tensile strength test specimens that have weld joint part at their centers were machined from spinning friction welded base metals. SFW specimens were prepared by making various chamfer angles of 15, 30, 45, 60, 75 degree and without chamfer angle on both contact-surfaces of base materials. It was found that chamfer angle affected tensile strength of weld joint of Aluminum A6061. Base materials with chamfer angle of 30 degree resulted in specimen that had the maximum tensile strength of friction weld joint. From the result of macrostructure evaluation, it was found that high strength in these specimens was due to the maximum area of fully plasticized zone, minimum porosity and minimum area of heat-affected zone.
