TWI is holding a free-to-attend technology showcase about friction stir welding (FSW) in collaboration with Stirweld on 11 March, 2025.
The exclusive event, ‘FSW Tank Manufacture’ is taking place at our headquarters near Cambridge, showcasing the latest advances in FSW equipment and the application of the process to the manufacture of aluminium hydrogen storage tanks.
This event builds upon development work being performed as part of the Innovate UK/ Aerospace Technology Institute (ATI) UK public-funded MASTER (Metallic Aerospace Structures Technologies for Eco-social Returns) project.
As hydrogen is emerging as a fuel of the future, industries including aerospace are seeking solutions for the safe and reliable storage of compressed hydrogen in a liquid form.
As well as insights from industry experts from TWI, Stirweld, and GKN Aerospace, this event will include live demonstrations and videos of FSW welding.
Ideal for design engineers, aerospace and storage tank manufacturers, FSW subcontractors and aluminium suppliers, this event provides the perfect platform to meet industry peers and find out about the latest advances in hydrogen storage tank solutions.
