FSW tools for standard Aluminium
The challenge :
This is the most common application : welding aluminium alloys 1xxx, 2xxx, 3xxx, 5xxx, 6xxx and some 7xxx.
Our FSW tools contribute for example to the assembly of cold plates, heat sinks and stiffened panels.

STIRWELD answer :
We have developed tools that results in defect free and high mechanical welds.
Case study : heat sinks
-Cheaper (FSW replaces TIG welding or Electron Beam Welding)
-Faster (welding is done in CNC machine)
-Perfectly sealed
-Higher operating pressure
FSW is democratized for heat sinks in Germany and USA.
