How do I know if my weld is strong enough?

In order to ensure the solidity of your weld, it must meet two essential conditions: the right penetration of the weld and homogeneity along the whole length.
For maximum strength, it is necessary that the parts are fully penetrated. The greater the penetration of the material, the stronger the FSW weld.
The materials must be mixed along their entire length at the weld. Otherwise, the strength of the joint is reduced.
The strength of the FSW weld is guaranteed by compliance with the FSW ISO 25239 standard. An industrial study ensures the successful implementation of the FSW process in critical sectors such as aeronautics, space or defense.
Our prototyping department is at your disposal for any questions regarding the quality control of your FSW welded parts.
