Linear Friction Welding: Not Just for Aerospace Parts Production
High cost and large size have always been the main reasons why linear friction welders have seen limited use outside of aerospace applications. But that is changing with a new line of affordable LFW systems that have a much smaller footprint and utilize a patented electro/mechanical oscillation device that is new to the world of linear friction welding.
