Record number: 1, Textual support number: 1 CONT
In friction sealing, the top and bottom halves of cylindrical containers may be easily joined. The bottom member is held against rotation by a friction brake; the top member is pressed against the bottom member and rotated. The heat generated by friction at the interface between the two halves melts their surfaces and the viscous interface causes the bottom half to rotate in unison with the upper half. This effects the seal. 3, record 1, English, - friction%20welding

A solid-state metal joining process producing high-strength, defect-free joints in metallic materials. The process employs a pin tool with a low rotational speed and applied pressure that "mechanically stirs" two parent materials together to produce a uniform weld. 3, record 3, English, - friction%20stir%20welding
Record number: 3, Textual support number: 1 CONT
Friction stir welding uses a cylindrical, shouldered tool with a profiled pin that is rotated and slowly plunged into the joint line between two pieces of sheet or plate material, which are butted together. Frictional heat is generated between the wear resistant welding tool and the work piece. This heat causes the work piece material to soften without reaching the melting point and allows the tool to traverse the weld line. As it does, the plasticized material is transferred from the leading edge of the tool to the trailing edge of the tool shoulder and pin. It leaves a solid phase bond between the two work pieces. 2, record 3, English, - friction%20stir%20welding

Le soudage par friction-malaxage(SFM) utilise le même principe [que le soudage par friction] pour joindre des plaques bout à bout ou avec chevauchement. L'outil utilisé est de forme cylindrique(profiled pin) avec un épaulement(tool shoulder). Le tout est mis en rotation à une vitesse de quelques centaines de tours par minute. Alors que l'outil approche les plaques, la rotation génère assez de chaleur pour ramollir le métal, sans jamais le rendre liquide, afin de permettre à l'outil de pénétrer dans les plaques. Une fois l'épaulement bien appuyé, assez de chaleur est générée pour permettre à l'outil de suivre une trajectoire de translation en suivant le joint entre les deux plaques et ainsi les souder. Les plaques doivent être solidement fixées car une grande force est requise pour faire entrer l'outil dans le métal. 3, record 3, French, - soudage%20par%20friction%2Dmalaxage

Up to now, welding two different metals such as steel and aluminum has been a difficult task. Mazda tackles it by optimizing the rotating tool shape and joining characteristics, and by using galvanized steel on one side. A joining gun holds the parts from both sides, and then spins while force is applied. This generates frictional heat that subsequently joins the aluminum materials to the steel sheet metal. Galvanized steel helps prevent the galvanic corrosion that results from the contact of two different types of metal. 1, record 4, English, - joining%20gun

Le [procédé] FSW [Friction Stir Welding] s’applique aux tôles et aux plaques [...] Il est adapté à l'automatisation et, depuis peu, à la robotisation. Le principe de fonctionnement est simple : la chaleur de friction est produite par une tête de soudage cylindrique, munie d’un épaulement et d’une broche profilée, qui est mise en rotation rapide. La chaleur produite provoque un ramollissement du métal des pièces à assembler, qui passe à l'état plastique sans atteindre son point de fusion. L'outil est alors plongé entre les deux pièces et le matériau est malaxé, ou mieux encore, forgé par contact intime avec le doigt et l'épaulement de la tête rotative. 1, record 4, French, - t%C3%AAte%20de%20soudage%20cylindrique
