Friction Stir Welding On Aluminum Alloy 6063 Pipe, Azman Ismail, Mokhtar Awang, Hasan Fawad, Kamal Ahmad
Azman Ismail
For Friction Stir Welding (FSW) process, a substantial amount of research done on aluminium plate but very few are found for aluminium pipe due to its tubular shape. A specially customised Orbital Clamping Unit (OCU) was used and fixed on the Bridgeport 2216 CNC milling machine in order to run the FSW on aluminium alloy 6063 pipe butt joint at several welding parameters. This OCU will hold these pipes together tightly, rotate these pipes at the required constant low speed, and ensure easy removal of pipe after the welding process before proceeding for further testing. This paper will study the …

Contact with Cuban scientists was established in 1986 when two researchers from Centro de Investigaciones para Industria Minero Metalurgica in Havana visited Laval University to get acquainted with research activities in the area of extractive metallurgy. This was followed in early 1987 by two more researchers from the same centre. Invitations were then received in late 1987, 1989, and 2008 to visit the nickel refineries in Cuba and to hold seminars at the University of Havana. The present report outlines these activities.
