This process makes relative movement by contact pressurizing the metal. Then, by utilizing the heat created in the friction, which is different from conventional one, it creates a joint of sophisticated heat-strength.
Absorbed elements and oxidants are supposed to be bad for joint surface. In frictional heat process, they are squeezed out and pressurizing the joint further creates a strong welded joint. Its strength level is higher than the base material, so in case it needs to be cut, cut it from the base material.
Conventionally different types of metal and non metal could not be welded, but now it is possible by this process. Joining differently processed products, such as forged metal, cast metal, press processed metal etc. is also possible. However, sometimes this process does not work, depending on the combination of the two different metals.
It needs no edge preparation processing, mating processing, and surface matching process, and can join two different materials. Also, this reduces costs as only required area of costly material is used.
Friction pressure welding is highly energy effective as it uses frictional heat as its energy. As compared to resistance welding, it takes lesser time to weld and 1/5~1/20 of electricity. Furthermore, it saves operation cost as this process does not need any welding rods, solvents, or gas. Also, for generating no spattering fume or smoke, this welding method is not injurious to human health and helps conserving environment.
