Joining analysis of polypropylene parts in rotary friction welding process and developing of joints profile

Aim Development of the weld nozzle profile that will contain the semi-melt agglomeration that will occur in the interior after rotary friction welding of plastic parts. Design & Methodology Welding nozzle design is made in modules in ABAQUS program. The design was developed by the parameters entered and the interpretation of the analysis results made in the ABAQUS program. Originality The source mouth obtained as a result of the ABAQUS program reveals the originality of this study. In addition, with the rotary friction welding simulation, graphs such as temperature, stress and displacement occurred during welding were created. Findings With this study, a structure that will contain the semi-melt agglomeration has been obtained as a result of rotary friction welding. During welding, for a piece max. 166,2 degrees C, 1,9 mm displacement and max. the stress was found to be 4,9253MPa. Conclusion As a result of 3 different welding nozzle designs and analysis made to include semi-melt agglomeration, it was observed that the design number 3 imprisoned the melt agglomeration.
