The work of preparing Inter
22、national Standards is normally carried out through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison wit
23、h ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization. International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2. The main task of technica
24、l committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote. ISO 25239-4 was prepa
25、red by the International Institute of Welding, which has been approved as an international standardizing body in the field of welding by the ISO Council. ISO 25239 consists of the following parts, under the general title Friction stir welding Aluminium: Part 1: Vocabulary Part 2: Design of weld join
26、ts Part 3: Qualification of welding operators Part 4: Specification and qualification of welding procedures Part 5: Quality and inspection requirements Requests for official interpretations of any aspect of this part of ISO 25239 should be directed to the ISO Central Secretariat, who will forward th
27、em to the IIW Secretariat for an official response.

28、uction Welding processes are widely used in the fabrication of engineered structures. During the second half of the twentieth century, fusion welding processes, wherein fusion is obtained by the melting of parent material and usually a filler metal, dominated the welding of large structures. Then, i
29、n 1991, Wayne Thomas at TWI invented friction stir welding (FSW), which is carried out entirely in the solid phase (no melting). The increasing use of FSW has created the need for this International Standard in order to ensure that welding is carried out in the most effective way and that appropriat
30、e control is exercised over all aspects of the operation. This International Standard focuses on the FSW of aluminium because, at the time of publication, the majority of commercial applications for FSW involved aluminium. Examples include railway carriages, consumer products, food processing equipm
31、ent, aerospace structures, and marine vessels. To parts of this International Standard are listed in the foreword. Part 1 defines terms specific to FSW. Part 2 specifies design requirements for FSW joints in aluminium. Part 3 specifies requirements for the qualification of an operator for the FSW of
32、 aluminium. Part 4 specifies requirements for the specification and qualification of welding procedures for the FSW of aluminium. A welding procedure specification (WPS) is needed to provide a basis for planning welding operations and for quality control during welding. Welding is considered a speci
33、al process in the terminology of standards for quality systems. Standards for quality systems usually require that special processes be carried out in accordance with written procedure specifications. Metallurgical deviations constitute a special problem. Because non-destructive testing of the mecha
34、nical properties is impossible at the present level of technology, this has resulted in the establishment of a set of rules for qualification of the welding procedure prior to the release of the WPS to actual production. This part of ISO 25239 defines these rules. Part 5 specifies a method for deter
35、mining the capability of a manufacturer to use the FSW process for the production of aluminium products of the specified quality. It defines specific quality requirements, but does not assign those requirements to any specific product group. To be effective, welded structures should be free from ser
36、ious problems in production and in service. To achieve that goal, it is necessary to provide controls from the design phase through material selection, fabrication, and inspection. For example, poor design can create serious and costly difficulties in the workshop, on site, or in service. Incorrect
37、material selection can result in welding problems, such as cracking. Welding procedures have to be correctly formulated and qualified to avoid imperfections. To ensure the fabrication of a quality product, management should understand the sources of potential trouble and introduce appropriate qualit
38、y and inspection procedures. Supervision should be implemented to ensure that the specified quality is achieved. The International Organization for Standardization (ISO) draws attention to the fact that it is claimed that compliance with this document may involve the use of patents concerning fricti
39、on stir welding given in Clauses 5 to 7. ISO takes no position concerning the evidence, validity and scope of this patent right.
