TWI is at the forefront of solid phase friction welding and processing technology. Active and innovative in welding research and development since the 1960s, we are responsive to industry needs and provide consultancy services to all industry sectors.
Support for industry includes: advice on component design, process selection & quality issues, troubleshooting, feasibility & pre-production trials, application & prototype equipment development.
TWI has been responsible for many key innovations and developments in solid phase joining; Friction stir welding was invented at TWI and was rapidly applied by industry; Linear friction welding was developed into a mature joining process for turbine blades.

Welding worker at Chittagong Railway Station. In Bangladesh safety measures are only maintained for workers when the project is under any foreign supervision! Otherwise no one thinks about this!

Part of a new series of images im starting all using a homemade welding glass filter......i hope in the future to gather enough images to produce a book or something......i would love other users input/thoughts on these imagesThanks
My Dad's Shop
This is the beginning of a new project I'm embarking upon in order to fill up some time. My dad has a shop in his basement, and it's absolutely full of stuff. I won't say crap, because it's not crap; it's amazing.
There's a band saw. A table saw. A scroll saw. There's even something (somewhere) called a Sawsall. Basically, if it has a blade, he's got it.
He makes lamps out of found wood. He restores tube radios from the '40s. He works on super secret "Tony, don't post pictures of this on the Internet" stuff for clients.
He welds. He solders. He sands. He grinds. He clamps. He is not a serial killer.
Coming soon: environmental portraits of my father in the glory of his man-cave.
Friction Stir Welding was invented by Wayne Thomas at TWI Ltd in 1991 and overcomes many of the problems associated with traditional joining techniques. Friction Stir Welding is a solid state process which produces welds of high quality in difficult to weld materials such as aluminium and is fast becoming the process of choice for manufacturing light weight transport structures such as boats, trains and aeroplanes.
