Structure design and thermal analysis of a new type of friction stir weld spindle

This article aims to present a new type of friction stir weld spindle system with 2 degrees of freedom. It explains the thermal–mechanical coupling mechanism between the welding tool and the workpiece, presents simulation of the heat distribution on a friction stir weld spindle under specific weldin...
