American Friction Welding (AFW) is a bi-metallic friction welder of dissimilar metals and near-net-shape parts. American Friction Welding (AFW) is a bi-metallic friction welder of dissimilar metals and near-net-shape parts. The company uses direct-drive rotary friction welding to deliver high precision, full strength penetration welds in the most demanding applications and industries. Dramatic cost savings result by reducing the amount of working material, machining, and surface finishing needed to produce finished metal components. AFW operates 24/7 in a 63,000 square foot, climate controlled facility located in Waukesha, WI, providing subcontract welding services since 1986.
