Additive friction stir deposition (AFSD) is a novel solid-state additive manufacturing method developed on the principle of stirring friction. Benefits from its solid-phase properties, compared with traditional additive manufacturing based on melting–solidification cycles, AFSD solves the problems of porosity, cracks, and residual stress caused by the melting–solidification process, and has a significant improvement in efficiency. In AFSD, the interaction between feedstocks and high-speed rotating print heads suffers severe plastic deformation at high temperatures below the melting point, ending up in fine, equiaxed recrystallized grains. The above characteristics make components by AFSD show similar mechanical behaviors to the forged ones. This article reviews the development of AFSD technology, elaborates on the basic principles, compares the macroscopic formability and material flow behavior of AFSD processes using different types of feedstocks, summarizes the microstructure and mechanical properties obtained from the AFSD of alloys with different compositions, and finally provides an outlook on the development trends, opportunities, and challenges to the researchers and industrial fields concerning AFSD.
