An efficient synergistic double-sided friction stir spot welding method: A case study on process optimization, interfacial characteristics and mechanical properties of 2198-T8 aluminum‑lithium alloy joints
Friction stir spot welding has important applications in the joining of thin metallic plates. However, the asymmetric thermomechanical action inherent in the single-sided friction stir spot welding inevitably generates the hook defect at the joint interface, and the defect deteriorates with the improvement of the interfacial metallurgical bonding, which causes the irreconcilable contradiction and significantly restricts the breakthrough of the process stability and welding efficiency. The synergistic double-sided probeless friction stir spot welding (SDP-FSSW) technology proposed in this study adopts a dual-axis synergistic control system, which introduces intense plastic deformation from both sides of the interface to form a wavy hook by accurate axial motion during the welding process. This innovative process solves the problem of hook warpage while realizing rapid metallurgical bonding and mechanical interlocking at the interface, thus obtaining AA2198-T8 aluminum‑lithium alloy spot joints with a tensile/shear strength exceeding 9kN in a short dwell time (0–3 s). Through response surface methodology, the optimal process parameters are identified, i.e. rotation speed of 603 rpm, dwell time of 3 s, and plunge depth of 0.26 mm, at which condition the average joint strength is 13.0 ± 0.5kN, a 47 % increase compared to an optimized joint of single-sided probeless friction stir spot welding (8.9kN). The optical microscope examination shows that the wavy hook can be adjusted by the rotation speed and the higher rotation speeds will make the wave disappear and produce an approximately straight interface. The fractographic analysis shows that the wavy hook can inhibit crack propagation and has good mechanical interlocking effect, but the flat hook at high rotation speeds leads to crack propagation directly along the interface, and the failure mode is changed from plug-pull fracture to interfacial fracture. Therefore, the joint strength at 1000 rpm is only 7.0kN, which decreases by about 47 % compared with the optimal strength. The electron backscattering diffraction analysis shows that continuous dynamic recrystallization occurs in the hook region and good metallurgical bonding is formed, and there are also some discontinuous dynamic recrystallized grains distributed between the large grains due to the larger strain rates and lower temperature at the interface during the SDP-FSSW process. It has been found that the wavy hook with good metallurgical bonding and mechanical interlocking can be introduced in spot welded joints by controlling the interface forming, which is a viable method to create high quality, efficient and reliable spot joints.
