Ancient blacksmiths were pioneers of modern welding
7 luglio 2020
Mikko Moilanen is a Finnish blacksmith, archaeologist, and Doctor of Philosophy who forges Viking Age swords in the same way as blacksmiths did over a thousand years ago. The traditional craft and theory of ancient metalworking have largely disappeared across Europe. Moilanen has learned these skills as a journeyman and forged his first sword already at the age of 12.

Rolex fixed by welding
A Norwegian Rolex owner saved a fine sum of money when the wristband of his valuable timepiece was fixed by welding. The owner tried to take the watch to various watchmakers in Oslo to have it repaired. Several attempts were made to fix the wristband by, for instance gluing, but they all failed. One of these craftsmen suggested welding to fix the wristband but did not want to try it himself, in case the heat was to cause even more damage.

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.
