Problem Statement: Design and implement an attachment to the current Kawasaki friction-stir welding end effector. This attachment must be able to apply a known and controllable fixturing pressure on a part in the immediate vicinity of the Friction Stir Spot Weld (FSSW) to be produced by the robot. The current end effector is capable of creating a FSSW, but without a pressure foot to supply localized clamping, the welds that are created are irregular. Preliminary specifications for this end effector are that the pressure foot should be able to provide 100 to 600 lbf of clamping.
