Characteristics and fabrication of the composite material by the aluminium 6063/B4C/SiC/Eggshell through the Friction Stir Additive Manufacturing
Abstract
The Friction Stir Additive Manufacturing (FSAM) process is one of the growing additive
manufacturing technologies that utilize the concept of solid-state friction stir processing to
develop multi-layer components through layer-by-layer bonding. The current work aims to
increase the mechanical properties of the previous research work of various authors using his
FSAM as a manufacturing process. in this research work three types of tool profiles are used
(circular, triangular, square), as well as matrix material is al6063. Reinforcement is sic, b4c
and eggshell, during the experimentation fix the machine parameter ( tool 1400 rpm, tool
angle 1 degree, etc.) rotation speed parameter and perform the operation. after examining the
composite material, hardness and tensile properties increase as well as the microstructure
shows a better mixing of the reinforcement. In addition, he details the current scenarios and
future scope of his FSAM process for use in various fields of engineering, as well as its
estimated future trends.
