Friction Stir Welding (FSW) is a solid state joining process, meaning frictional heat is generated between the wear-resistant welding tool shoulder and pin, and the material of the work pieces. This heat, along with the heat generated by the mechanical mixing process and the adiabatic heat within the material, cause the stirred materials to soften without reaching the melting point (hence cited a solid-state process).
