Refill Friction Stir Spot Welding

Welding technology that enables the assembling of two parts using a cylindrical shaped tool including a coaxial pin, running at constant speed into the parts to be welded. The tool “softens” materials, so as they become pasty, allowing it to penetrate into the joint plan and to mix materials intimately.


This welding per contact allows the assembling of difficult materials like aluminium or materials with high thicknesses.
