I believe that the most effective and common way to inspect a friction weld is by ultrasound.
Centre lathe can use for friction welding.
Fusion welding involves melting the base materials to create a joint, typically using heat from an electric arc, gas flame, or laser. The process requires proper control of temperature and material properties to ensure a strong bond upon solidification. Common types of welding joints include butt joints, lap joints, corner joints, edge joints, and T-joints, each designed for specific structural needs and applications. Proper joint design and preparation are crucial for achieving optimal strength and integrity in the welded assembly.

It's often faster and can be stronger too.
This is used differently in different countries. But generally, if a welder is contracted to do say 100 weld joints, of a 1" pipe, then the total work involved is 100" dia welding work. If 100 weld joints of a 2" pipe is 200 weld work and so on.
The kind of welding that is suitable for strong joints is Tee joints

Socket weld joints are an easy and fast method of weld joints. Socket welding is preferred mainly on low pressure joints and small bore joints.
The solid-state welding processes. This can include friction and friction stir welding where the base metal never reaches its melting point.
it is type of a non ferrous welding process,

Friction stir welding also known as FSW means that the metal is not melted during the process of joining. This is a solid-state process in which you use a third "body" tool to join two surfaces. Between the tool and material a lot of heat is created which results in a soft region in the metal close to the FSW tool. Friction welding or FRW is also a solid-state welding process whereby heat is generated through friction between a moving tool and the component being worked on. A so-called lateral force "upsets" the materials being joined in such a way as they are fused. No melt occurs during the process, friction welding is therefore not really a welding process in the sense of electrode or gas welding. It is a technique for forging metals together. Friction welding is commonly used with special metals in the aviation and the automotive industries.
