Friction Stir Welding (FSW) has the advantage of generating sound welds on materials that generally present low weldability by traditional fusion welding processes, such as 2xxx and 7xxx aluminum alloys. Force measurement in FSW provides significant information about the process, the machine requirements, the effect of selected parameters, and weld soundness. In this paper, an axial force measuring device was designed, built, and tested to be used in a CNC adapted system. All tests were performed using AA 7075-T6 and a butt joint configuration. The forces obtained by the device match, in profile, key values, and trends, the ones found in literature which allows to conclude that this is a functional and sufficient device for the application.
El proceso FSW permite obtener juntas soldadas de materiales que, por los procesos tradicionales, e presentan una baja soldabilidad como es el caso de aleaciones de aluminio de las series 2xxx y 7xxx. La medición de las fuerzas involucradas durante FSW provee información significativa acerca del proceso, los requerimientos de la máquina, el efecto de los parámetros de operación seleccionados sobre la sanidad de la junta. En este artículo se presentan los resultados del diseño, construcción y evaluación de un dispositivo para la medición de la fuerza axial en el proceso FSW, adaptable a una maquina CNC. Todas las pruebas realizaron la aleación de aluminio AA 7075-T6 con una configuración de junta a tope. Los resultados muestran que las fuerzas medidas por el dispositivo se ajustan al comportamiento y valores más representativos reportados por la literatura, lo cual permite concluir para esta aplicación el dispositivo es funcional y adecuado.
