Take the guesswork out of MMA parameter setting with Weld Assist, which lowers setup speed by up to 60 % and ensures suitable parameter setup the first time and every time.
High-quality stick welding
Perfect welds are characterized by a smooth, controlled arc performance. Master 315 has the dynamic performance to keep the arc under control, including cellulosic electrodes.
Wireless remote control
Extend usability and eliminate hazards with the HR45 wireless remote control. You can set the power level simply and safely and select memory channels up to 100 m from your workstation.
Extra to the ordinary – optimal stick welding performance
Master S 305 is a stylish and practical stick welding machine, capable of absorbing the knocks and impacts of everyday welding life. Premium-class stick welding is characterized by reliable ignition, arc stability, and suitability for all electrodes, including cellulosic.
Lightweight and compact, the Master S 305 is constructed from tough injection-molded plastic, featuring impact bridge protection structures, making it your reliable partner for workshop or site use.
Master S 305 guarantees optimal welding performance and fast parameter setting, supported by the innovative Weld Assist menu selection tool. Weld Assist ensures suitable parameters are set for each application, regardless of your welding experience. Select the electrode type, electrode size, and joint type, and Weld Assist makes the perfect setting for you.
Stick welding may be a basic welding process, but Master S 305 adds the extra to the ordinary in a perfect blend for professional welding.
UI Control panel
Equipped as standard with a full-color 7-inch TFT display, Master S 305 defines the best user experience and accuracy for weld parameter setting and control. Protected by a 3 mm armor shield plate, the display is both robust and impact-resistant. Master S 305 also includes 99 memory channels for your best parameter settings or WPS values to save and recall as required.

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.

Safety that keeps up with welders' challenges and changing risks
Welding safety has become increasingly demanding. The hazards at the arc remain constant, but modern working conditions mean exposure can accumulate over longer shifts and in tighter indoor spaces. As a result, welding PPE needs to be treated as both protection for the welder and proof of compliance. At Kemppi, welding safety PPE is designed and validated in practice through clear requirements, welder-led feedback, and verified compliance with EU PPE Regulation 2016/425, CE marking processes, and relevant EN standards.
