As Don Buchan, VP Business Development, explains, “Forge Bonding is an improvement on friction welding, a technique first used in the Soviet Union in the 1950s and later imported into the United States in the 1960s. It’s a tried and tested technique used in the aerospace, military, and heavy manufacturing industries. The problem with friction welding is it requires a very large and heavy machine and must be done in a workshop setting. Forge Bonding took this technique and made it portable, making it possible to apply the concepts of friction welding in confined or restricted spaces, such as when repairing tanks or valves.” Another challenge Forge Bonding solves is the use of heat.
