Lateral friction surfacing, a solid-state deposition process, is a novel friction surfacing technique. In this approach, frictional heat and plastic deformation result in deposition of consumable material from the radial surface of a tool onto a substrate. This paper presents a comprehensive assessment of lateral friction surfacing of AA2011, AA6061, and AA7075 aluminum alloys, with particular focus on the impacts of process parameters on the coating properties. The influence of process variables such as tool rotational speeds, normal applied forces, and type of consumable materials was investigated on the process temperature, physical, and metallurgical characteristics of the deposits using optical mi-croscopy, infrared thermography, scanning electron microscopy, and EDS. This study ex-hibits that the lateral friction surfacing approach enables the deposition of ultra-thin and smooth layers of different aluminum alloys. Furthermore, the temperature generated in this technique was low enough to avoid plasticizing the substrate and intermixing between the consumable material and substrate, which mitigates the thermal impacts on the grain structures and metallurgical characteristics. The lateral friction surfacing performance of the different alloys can be partially explained by their material properties. High input energy provided by high normal forces and tool rotational speeds may result in failure in the deposition process of materials with lower thermal conductivity and melting point, which emphasizes on limitations for the process parameters during the process.
