Description
Technical Field

[0002] Friction welding, as a solid-state welding technology, offers advantages such as high weld quality, excellent joint strength, and low process costs, as it avoids material melting and metallographic structural changes during the welding process. It is widely used in a variety of fields, including aerospace, automotive manufacturing, and rail transportation. Friction welding achieves this by rotating the parts to be welded at high speeds relative to each other under axial pressure, using frictional heat to bring the contact surfaces to a plastic state. However, conventional friction welding devices still face some technical challenges in practical applications.
