Stable arc ignition improves welding quality and reduces costs

13. desember 2020

In MIG/MAG welding, arc ignition plays a key role in welding quality. Any instability will result in the post-weld cleaning of spatters, which eats up resources and hinders productivity in industrial environments. Available in modern welding equipment, new ignition-enhancing technologies offer additional control of the arc and support the craftsmanship of welders.

Calculation of heat input in MIG/MAG welding

Calculation of heat input in MIG/MAG welding

The new welding procedure test standard, EN-ISO 15614-1:2017, provides recommendations for the measurement and calculation of heat input. In concrete terms, what does this mean for MIG/MAG welding? And how can workshops carry out these calculations in practice?

5 ways to save in welding consumable costs

5 ways to save in welding consumable costs

Money talks. In almost all companies, costs and expenses are critical components in decision-making, and the winner is the one who achieves the highest quality at the lowest total cost. In the world of welding, not only the purchase price of welding equipment is significant, but also the price of frequently-replaced welding consumables. Wouldn't you also like to achieve significant cost savings in consumables?

Safety that keeps up with welders' challenges and changing risks

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 And the Future of Defence Manufacturing

Eurosatory 2026 And the Future of Defence Manufacturing

Eurosatory 2026 highlighted a clear shift in modern defence manufacturing. While defence systems are becoming more digital, networked, and autonomous, their foundation remains physical. From armoured vehicles and artillery to industrial resilience, welding quality, steel structures, and production discipline remain paramount to defence readiness.
