Results for tag: "Friction Stir Processing"

Friction Stir Processing (FSP) is a solid-state joining process used in civil engineering to join two or more materials together. It is a relatively new technology, developed in the early 1990s, and is used to join materials that are difficult to weld, such as aluminum alloys and magnesium alloys. FSP is a cost-effective and efficient process that produces high-strength joints with minimal distortion. It is also used to improve the mechanical properties of materials, such as fatigue strength and corrosion resistance. FSP is used in a variety of civil engineering applications, such as bridge construction, building construction, and infrastructure repair. It is also used in the aerospace and automotive industries. Some companies in the FSP market include Friction Stir Link, FSW Technologies, and FSW Solutions. Show Less Read more
