With the modified friction stir welding developed by the MPA, thin but high-strength steel sheets and slightly thicker aluminum sheets can be joined. According to the MPA, this results in higher buckling stiffness of the overall structure. Here, the agitating friction head has already covered a few centimetres and opened the view on the seam.
