“…In another study on acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS) plates, the feed rate (20,40, and 80 mm/min), tool speed (800, 1250, and 1600 rpm) and material preheating temperature (50,80, and 100 °C) parameters were changed, and their effects on the weld quality were examined. The tensile test gave the best results when the feed rate was selected as the lowest and the tool rotation speed and temperature selected as the highest [9].…”

Parts produced using a 3D printer are combined with friction stir welding (FSW). In the FSW processing of parts with a low infill ratio, welding errors occur due to a lack of material. In this study, plates were created using two different-colored PLA Plus filaments with different infill ratios in the weld area (20%, 60%, and 100%). Triangular pin geometry, different feed rates (20, 40, and 60 mm/min), and different tool rotation speeds (1250, 1750, and 2250 rpm) were used as FSW process parameters. Tensile testing was performed to determine weld strength and hardness measurements, and visual inspections were performed. Color measurements were made on the test samples before and after the welding process, and the relationship between welding performance and color was evaluated. The best welding strength was obtained as 17.83 ± 0.68 MPa at a feed rate of 20 mm/min, a tool rotation speed of 1750 rpm, and a part with a 60% infill ratio in the welding zone. In the sample with the best weld strength, the temperature was measured as 198.97 °C. Color changes in the weld area of parts with 60% and 100% infill ratios were measured between 78.9–82.2 and 79.1–84.5, respectively. It was determined that the color change decreases as the weld strength increases in these parts. The results show that with the proposed new part design, the FSW method can be used at low infill ratios, and the weld strength can be evaluated based on the color changes in the weld zone.

Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene (ABS) and Polystyrene (PS) are utilized in high-performance automotive parts, robust consumer electronics, and advanced packaging solutions for improved durability and strength. Joining ABS and PS using Friction Stir Welding (FSW) significantly enhances joint strength, material integrity, and performance, making it ideal for advanced engineering applications. The present paper investigates the effects of incorporating and depriving multiwall carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) during the joining of the ABS and PS material. A cylindrical threaded tool is used to join the material at varying tool rotation speed (TRS) from 700 rpm to 1100 rpm with an interval of 100 rpm and traverse speed (TS) from 0.1mm/s to 0.5mm/s with an interval of 0.1mm/s. The Scanning Electron microscopy (SEM) and Fourier-Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR) analysis of welded samples is also performed. The results showed that optimal joints were formed at a TS of 0.1 mm/s and a TRS of 900 rpm with MWCNTs. Without MWCNTs, the maximum tensile strength and efficiency were achieved at a TS of 0.5 mm/s and TRS of 800 rpm. Tensile tests demonstrated a 39.16% increase in joint strength with the incorporation of MWCNTs in welded dissimilar thermoplastic materials, highlighting their potential to significantly enhance tensile strength.
