FSW Aluminum welding: heat sinks for Electric car

A heat sinks is an electronic mainly components for electric car which made of aluminum materials and used for automotive industry. Normally these heat sinks made by Aluminum cast components with cooling channels which are closed by a sheet metal cover. Therefore, Aluminum casted heat sinks are especially weld by Friction Stir Welding. Compare with traditional welding processes, the Friction Stir Welding present many advantages: high-quality, high resistance, lightweight and perfectly waterproof. We are an expert on the field of friction stir welding. We provide supply FSW-Table Style Machine and FSW-Robot System, which we will adjust to your individual requirements.  

Battery Trays

Electric car are speeding – the automotive industry is growing drastically. for example in the production of battery trays which are made of aluminum materials are used for electric vehicles. That why our friction stir welding process is the perfect technology for battery trays. UNIVERSAL FSW provided friction stir welding technology for the battery trays of the automotive industry to OEM and Tier-1-suppliers in China.

 

Advantage of FSW

 

Tightness safety and high-quality welding of components- depending on the crash stability test. 

Lightweight materials for automotive industry- aluminum. Friction stir welding is suited for cast and extruded battery trays. Not only Friction stir welding joins sheets of different thicknesses also welding different seam geometries. Fully automated 24/7 serial production by using FSW-Gantry Moving Style Machine and FSW-Robot System.

Railway Vehicle Industry

  • Comparison with conventional MIG welded panels. friction stir welding as the most suitable joining process is increasingly used train body. The benefits of Low distortion and high crashworthiness extruded Aluminum are using on it.
  • We successfully uses the friction stir welding process for the production of the High-speed train in China. The welding area including main body structure(side panels, roof panels and floor panels)which made of extruded Aluminum. the aluminum plates thickness up to 30mm.

FSW-Gantry Moving Style Large Machine

Shipbuilding and Marine

  • For Shipbuilding industry. Extruded Aluminum is also an important topic applies for friction stir welding. According to weld multiple sheets of metal together to form large panels for our customer. They are used as floors,walkways and docks on ship.
  • In this industry the particular problem is high distortion and poor weld quality, therefore friction stir welding as the most suitable joining process can solve the problems. The benefit for customer is reducing minimize distortion of large panels and improving customer save money.
  • UNIVERSAL FSW has great equipment which include the FSW-Gantry Moving Style Large Machine and Special-FSW System

Aerospace Industry

  • Compare with MIG and TIG welding. friction stir welding (FSW)process has become significantly popular in aerospace industry. Especially fuel tanks for rockets. The advantages of friction stir welding are high weld strength quality, reduce the weight of production and save the time. However, the big challenge for welding is material: High-strength aluminum (2xxx,7xxx alloys series ）because These materials must light weight and corrosion resistant therefore Aerospace is a particularly demanding industry. 
  • UNIVERSAL FSW is one of China’s premier friction stir welding provider to the aerospace industry. UNIVERSAL provides solutions for large or small fabricated rockets products. From large fuels tanks to cargo carriers
  • Special-FSW System
