The news from SPEMA and MEFIC will now be available on this website, following their integration into Calip Group.
FSW is based on a mechanical mixing process through friction, which joins materials in a plastic state. It generates very little heat, avoids deformation and eliminates common welding defects such as porosity, cracks or inclusions. The process offers:
As part of a continuous improvement approach, Calip Group collaborates with specialised institutes such as Institut de Soudure and CETIM, and is a member of Printing in Bourges.
These partnerships strengthen our technological monitoring, certification levels and ability to offer ever more advanced solutions. Our FSW expertise is part of a long-term industrial quality and innovation strategy.
Solid-state process
A weld performed without filler metal or material fusion, reducing the risk of deformation, cracking or porosity. Ideal for high-value aluminium alloys.
Excellent mechanical strength
FSW joints offer high mechanical resistance and long-term reliability, even under significant structural stress.
Environmentally responsible
A clean, energy-efficient process with no gas emissions or polluting consumables. FSW supports sustainable industry and low-carbon manufacturing.
Industrial applications
FSW is ideal for joining complex aluminium components in aerospace, defense, mobility and embedded electronics sectors.
