You’d think writing for Hackaday means we probably don’t get surprised very often by projects… but then we see something we never thought was possible — in this case, the linear friction welding of ...

• The process is completed in a few seconds with very high reproducibility - an essential requirement for a mass production industry. Now, a new variant from the same stable of friction processes, ...

Friction welding as a way to reduce costs is a viable option for design engineering and new product development. Cost versus performance criteria—abrasion or corrosion resistance, mechanical strength ...
