Stirweld offers manufacturers friction stir welding (FSW) solutions, resulting from the applied research work of Institut Maupertuis and ENS Rennes. FSW is a revolutionary welding technology for aluminum already applied in all sectors of activity: aeronautics, space, automobile, railway, naval, civil engineering. Aluminum is an eco-friendly alloy because of its low weight that allows lighter structures, excellent recyclability and durability. Stirweld is differentiated by advanced technologies at lower cost, to democratize this technology to any type of application. Our team is competent on the entire industrialization of the process. Stirweld is committed to continuous innovation and working with a dynamic network of subcontractors. We rely on a flexible and responsive organization, a modern management where everyone is involved and can give their opinion in a serious and friendly atmosphere
EXPERTISE Friction stir welding (FSW). The FSW is interesting for aluminum welding. This process allows: - The realization of stiffened panels cheaper and lighter from aluminum profile - The faultless welding of molded parts - The reduction of rough machining - The replacement of MIG welding or riveting - A 100% waterproof solder for the manufacture of cold plates for example. Previously the FSW process was relatively expensive because it recquired large equipment. We have developed a head which, by mounting on a CNC machine tool, allows all the possibilities of a FSW machine at a lower cost
