This invention relates to a friction welding apparatus, and more particularly, but not exclusively, to a modular friction welding apparatus suitable for in-situ reparation of blind holes in pipes. The friction welding apparatus includes a frame assembly, a spindle assembly for holding a friction welding consumable; and a drive assembly for driving a spindle of the spindle assembly. The spindle assembly and the drive assembly are releasably securable to the frame assembly so as to form a modular friction welding apparatus, and the frame assembly is furthermore removably securable to an object to be welded. |
