Friction stir consolidation (FSC) is a solid-state process adopted to recycle machining scraps with aim to reduce the adverse impact of obtaining metals from their primary source.

During FSC process, a rotating tool with a certain force is applied to a given chips batch enclosed in a die chamber turning it into a consolidated billet. It is assumed that favorable process conditions for chips bonding are acquired by the combined effect of friction, stirring action, and pressure of the tool.

Abstract

Friction stir consolidation (FSC) is a solid-state process adopted to recycle machining scraps with aim to reduce the adverse impact of obtaining metals from their primary source. FSC was also applied to offer plausible new routes for alloying and upcycling from powder and scrap metal and thus drew the attention of many researchers. During FSC process, a rotating tool with a certain force is applied to a given chips batch enclosed in a die chamber turning it into a consolidated billet. It is assumed that favorable process conditions for chips bonding are acquired by the combined effect of friction, stirring action, and pressure of the tool. However, the real process is quite complex, and it can be understood only by developing proper solid bonding criteria through numerical modeling that can forecast the consolidation process. Therefore, in this research, an attempt was made to implement different existing bonding criteria. Some of these were good enough to predict favorable conditions for sound bonding of particular case studies, however a uniform criteria with a single threshold value that is applicable to all case studies could not be achieved. Therefore, this study suggests for a new approach to accurately predict the bonding integrity of the FSC process.
