METHOD OF AND APPARATUS FOR FRICTION WELDING

摘要

An improved method and apparatus for use in rotary bi-axle type friction welding, utilizing braking and clutching systems applied to both the drive side and driven side spindles. The stopping process of the driven system is controlled by the braking and clutching systems connected to the driven side spindle, and those systems are activated alternately to effectively dissipate the resultant heat energy caused by the stopping process.
