Abstract
Friction Stir Welding (FSW) is a new method of solid state joining of metals and nonmetals as a substitute technology applied in high strength alloys that are challenging in joining processes in traditional ways. At this contemporary epoch, many transportation industries utilize friction stir welding by its light weight higher strength weld properties. However, many problems are associated and diminution on the weld quality by a shortage of skills. One of the key challenges is selecting an appropriate optimization techniques and process parameters for single and multiple response studies. The current scenario, focused on the determination and identification of appropriate process parameters and optimization techniques for welding of AA6061 material using friction stir welding. All process parameters and optimization methods are intensively studied from the previous kinds of literature and identified appropriate process parameters for AA6061 materials. Based on the results, process parameters namely rotational speed at 43.7%, traverse speed at 17.29%, tool tilt angle 7.46%, axial force of 7.09%, ratio of tool shoulder-to-pin size 3.69%, other parameters are 1.73% contributions for achieving higher mechanical properties (tensile and hardness) of AA6061.
