Among all the conventional methods, Friction stir welding process has evolved recently and has become very popular as this is used for welding any materials and hard metals including aluminum, magnesium, polyethylene where accuracy is not of prime importance. At present, we have taken up this research work involving the FSW process and our objective is to conduct an experimental investigation on process parameters and studying the type of responses. It is hoped that this production process would find wide applications in the area of various shipbuilding and aerospace industries, marine and construction industries.
