A New Approach in Part Design for Friction Stir Welding of 3D-Printed Parts with Different Infill Ratios and Colors.

What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Parts produced using a 3D printer are combined with friction stir welding (FSW). In the FSW processing of parts with a low infill ratio, welding errors occur due to a lack of material. In this study, plates were created using two different-colored PLA Plus filaments with different infill ratios in the weld area (20%, 60%, and 100%). Triangular pin geometry, different feed rates (20, 40, and 60 mm/min), and different tool rotation speeds (1250, 1750, and 2250 rpm) were used as FSW process parameters. Tensile testing was performed to determine weld strength and hardness measurements, and visual inspections were performed. Color measurements were made on the test samples before and after the welding process, and the relationship between welding performance and color was evaluated. The best welding strength was obtained as 17.83 ± 0.68 MPa at a feed rate of 20 mm/min, a tool rotation speed of 1750 rpm, and a part with a 60% infill ratio in the welding zone. In the sample with the best weld strength, the temperature was measured as 198.97 °C. Color changes in the weld area of parts with 60% and 100% infill ratios were measured between 78.9-82.2 and 79.1-84.5, respectively. It was determined that the color change decreases as the weld strength increases in these parts. The results show that with the proposed new part design, the FSW method can be used at low infill ratios, and the weld strength can be evaluated based on the color changes in the weld zone.
