In this work, three types of probeless tools (archimedes, involute, and concave tools) were designed. A 7075-T651 sheet of 1.0 mm thickness was welded using the designed probeless tools. It was found that the stir zone and hook defect varied a lot for different joints. Plunge depth was the dominant process parameter for joint property. The joint’s maximum failure load (5.73 kN) was obtained with the concave tool when the target plunge depth was 0.55 mm. Two typical joint fracture modes (shear fracture and plug fracture) were found using three designed tools with different plunge depths, rotation speeds, and dwell times. Shoulder geometry presented little influence on heat generation. Compared with involute grooves, archimedes grooves showed to be more effective on the material flow. The properties of the joints with the archimedes tool were more sensitive to welding parameters. Compared with the flat tool, the concave tool decreased the escape of plasticized material, improved the forge force, and optimized the metallurgical bond at the interface.
