Friction Stir Welding / Friction Stir Processing / Friction Stir Additive Manufacturing Machine
Make: Interface Design Associates Pvt. Ltd.
Cost of the equipment: 42,48,000 INR
Funded by: TIH, TIDF IIT Guwahati
Installation Year: 2025
Technical Specifications:
Maximum Axial Load: 40 kN
Maximum Spindle Power: 11 kW
Maximum Spindle Speed: 3000 rpm
Maximum Traverse Speed: 3000 mm/min
Also, equipped with 8 K-type thermocouples for in situ temperature measurements
The equipment is capable of performing Friction Stir Welding, Friction Stir Processing, Friction Stir Surfacing, and Additive-Based Deposition. For Additive-Based Deposition, the required deposition path planning must be done by the user using "AutoCAD" prior to visiting the laboratory for the final fabrication.
