Solid-state welding processes are a group of technologies in which joining is accomplished without melting the individual substrates. In these processes, bonding is accomplished by a combination of heating and forging. Heating is used to both lower the flow stresses enabling forging, as well as promote diffusion between the individual substrates. Common variations of these processes include flash-butt, upset, projection, and mash-seam welding, as well as friction-based welding processes such as direct-drive, inertia, and linear friction welding.

As part of a collaboration between EWI and MTI, MTI will routinely feature Low Force Friction Welding research and blogs written by EWI's experts on solid-state joining. Similarly, EWI will share content from MTI's friction welding experts as it relates to Low-Force Friction Welding.
