Abstract

One method of joining soft metals such as aluminum that is widely used is Friction Stir Welding (FSW). The friction tool is a very important part of FSW. Friction tools are usually made from hardened H13 steel. This research aims to make a friction tool from steel connecting rod bolts used in marine diesel engines. The experimental methods used include FSW tool design, heat treatment of the material at a temperature of 900oC followed by a quenching process with water and salt water cooling media, then continued with material testing (chemical composition test, hardness test, and micrographic test). The test results obtained from the chemical composition test show that the connecting rod bolts include AISI 4145 steel material. The highest hardness value obtained from the connecting rod steel in the saltwater quenching process was 52.67 HRC with a martensite phase, as seen from the micrographic test. Used steel connecting rod bolts from marine diesel engines can be used as FSW friction tool material.

Abstract

The development of technology in the maritime sector is very rapid in the manufacture of aluminum ships. Friction Stir Welding (FSW) is a green technology in the metal joining process. Post Welding Heat Treatment (PWHT) is one way to increase the loss of strength of the material connection after the FSW process. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of FSW results before and after PWHT. Aluminum alloy (AA) series 5052 and 6061 were used as research materials because they are resistant to seawater. FSW parameters were spindle speed 1500 rpm (clockwise), travel speed 30 mm/min, tool depth 0.2 mm, and tool tilt 1o. PWHT parameters were heating the FSW material in a furnace to a temperature of 550°C (10, 30 minutes), water quenching, and artificial aging to a temperature of 180°C for 7 hours. The material was characterized by tensile testing, hardness, and micrography. The highest tensile strength and hardness values were 216 MPa and 68 HV, the smallest and uniform grain size in the weld zone and base metal areas were obtained at PWHT parameters of 30 minutes.
