The effectiveness of aluminum alloy use for manufacturing gears of tank trucks, cement trucks and fright car bodies of railway transport is shown. For these objects manufacturing it is efficiently to use aluminum alloys 1565 and B 1341 the welded joints of which are made with the use of science intensive techniques of plasma-arc welding and friction welding with an agitation.
additive mass output, aluminum alloys, strength-to-weight ratio, tank trucks, fright cars, plasma-arc welding, friction welding with agitation, stress-strain properties.
