Abstract

Friction stir welding is a new concept in welding processes, there are many areas, in which this process needs investigation to optimize and make it commercially liable. Aluminium-Magnesium alloys and their welded joints show mechanical properties. Aluminium alloys shows good mechanical properties when welded with Friction Stir welding. So in order to obtain these desired mechanical properties, certain welding process parameters are to be studied. Here, a literature survey has been carried out for the friction stir welding and its process parameters for Aluminium alloys of 6xxx series.
