Description
Summary:The objective of this project is to develop a portable friction welding machine, so on to reduce the cost and the size of a friction welding machine. In order to test the performance of this design, a prototype system will be developed. This prototype is design, fabricated and tested by welding of carbon steel. Development of a portable friction welding machine is carried out by applying the vertical milling machine or vertical drill machine to drive the portable friction welding system. Technical trials carried out with this prototype have shown that the machine performed like the conventional friction welding for carbon steel. This project will bring huge implications to the local industry whereby it can reduce the cost of operation friction welding and capital investment.
