Orbital FSW Machines

Orbital Welding Machine | OWM

Precision Welding Technology for the Highest Quality Standards

Our orbital friction stir welding (FSW) machines enable the production of high-strength, precise, and repeatable weld joints. Using the innovative Friction Stir Welding process, materials are joined in the solid state without melting the base material. This results in superior weld quality, excellent mechanical properties, and minimal distortion.

Applications for the orbital FSW Series

Energy Transmission

high-performance applications

The orbital design is specifically developed for rotationally symmetric parts. During the welding process, the tool follows a precise circular path, ensuring a consistent and uniform weld around the entire circumference. This makes the technology particularly suitable for applications in the automotive, aerospace, energy, and pressure vessel industries.
