WiseSteel – Quality and Productivity for MAG Welding of Structural Steel

5. september 2021

Welding equipment faces raised expectations due to more demanding base materials. In the welding of stronger steel grades, Kemppi has optimized arc control as a practical solution. WiseSteel is a MAG welding process developed by Kemppi for welding structural steel. The process can reduce the risk of welding defects at high welding speeds. It also enables the use of the low heat input required for stronger steel grades.

Kemppi's advanced welding processes: TIG and stick welding (MMA)

Kemppi's advanced welding processes: TIG and stick welding (MMA)

In TIG welding, process development has mainly focused on modifying the current modes in different situations. In practice, this means variations of pulse and AC welding, as well as ignition or tack welding. In the case of pulse welding, the welding machine user has numerous choices, as the adjustment possibilities for these process variations are highly versatile.
