Friction welding
Friction welding (FWR) is a solid-state welding and bonding process that generates heat through mechanical friction between workpieces in relative motion to one another. The process is used with the addition of a lateral force called "upset" to plastically displace and fuse the materials. Friction welding is a solid-state welding technique similar to forge welding. Instead of a fusion welding process, friction welding is used with metals and thermoplastics in a wide variety of aviation and automotive applications.

The ISO norm of friction welding is EN ISO 15620:2019, which contains information about the basic terms, definitions, and tables of the weldability of metals and alloys.

Spin welding of polymers
Spin welding is a form of friction welding used to join thermoplastic parts. The parts to be welded must be round, and in plane with each other. Like all other welding methods this process utilizes heat, time, and pressure to create a weld joint. Heat is generated from friction between the two parts when rotating and subjected to a load normal to the weld joint. This frictional heat causes the plastic to melt and a bond to be created.

Due to this process's high speed, and repeatability it is favored in high production environments. This process was initially used to weld plastic compasses under a liquid to allow the internal parts of the compass to be filled with the liquid, but it is used in a very wide range of industries and applications.
