Welding instructors – true chameleons
From Slovakia to China, Saudi Arabia to Mexico, through Israel and all over Finland. These are some of the many places where his work has taken Jarkko Anttonen. Anttonen is one of the welding instructors in the Welding Services team at Kemppi. They're based in the Application Training Center at the Kemppi headquarters in Lahti, Finland. But as you can see, Anttonen's list of travel destinations is long. You could say that a welding instructors' actual workplace is basically the whole world.

Come Rapid Welding e Kemppi hanno costruito una partnership che dura nel tempo
Rapid Welding collabora con Kemppi fin dalla propria fondazione, nel 1990. Roy Edwards, cofondatore e amministratore delegato, illustra i principi alla base di questa partnership lunga 36 anni: dalla scelta della soluzione di saldatura più adatta e dall'assistenza alle apparecchiature lungo tutto il loro ciclo di vita, fino alla carenza di competenze e alla ricerca del ruolo più appropriato per l'automazione e la saldatura laser.

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.

Eurosatory 2026 e il futuro dell'industria della difesa
Eurosatory 2026 ha messo in luce un netto cambiamento nel settore della produzione moderna nel campo della difesa. Sebbene i sistemi di difesa stiano diventando sempre più digitali, interconnessi ed autonomi, la loro base rimane fisica. Dai veicoli corazzati all’artiglieria, passando per la resilienza industriale, la qualità della saldatura, le strutture in acciaio e la disciplina produttiva rimangono fondamentali per la prontezza operativa nel settore della difesa.
