Friction Stir Welding
Altair HyperWorks includes a an accurate solver to simulate the fast-growing friction stir welding technique.
Altair’s Friction Stir Welding (FSW) is a very robust simulation tool used to identify, evaluate and optimize the most important physical aspects of FSW processes used to join metals.
Altair’s FSW helps finding solutions to:
- Identify the optimal process conditions
- Design more efficient tooling
- Drastically reduce the costly pre-production welding tests
Its easy-to-use GUI enables users to define most FSW processes with minimum effort because all aspects of model generation are built in into the system, including mesh generation and the specification of boundary conditions.
