This study investigates the advancements in Aluminum-Based Composite Manufacturing through the incorporation of lanthanum oxide (La2O3) reinforcement using the Friction Stir Process (FSP). The pivotal role of precision machining, particularly the vertical milling machine, in executing FSP is emphasized. Specific parameters, including pin diameter, tool tilt angle, and rotational speed, were meticulously selected to ensure optimal performance. The uniform distribution of La2O3 particles within the composite matrix highlights the effectiveness of the fabrication process, indicating proper mixing and dispersion techniques. Experimental findings reveal significant improvements in mechanical properties, with a notable 22.78% enhancement in tensile strength, a significant 35.21% increase in hardness, a noteworthy 24.44% improvement in fatigue strength, and a substantial 28.68% increase in wear resistance observed in aluminum-La2O3 composites produced via FSP. These results underscore the potential of leveraging FSP for aluminum-based composite manufacturing, offering opportunities for the development of high-performance materials with enhanced mechanical properties and durability.
