Up to 38 % savings with Reduced Gap Technology
19. april 2016
The groove angle has a direct impact on the efficiency and productivity of welding heavy metal structures. Kemppi's new solution, Reduced Gap Technology (RGT) changes the understanding of narrow gap welding. The new technology challenges conventional joint design principles.

Future welding - as seen by the welders
In the world of welding, innovation is guided by the needs of both the industries using welding systems, and the individual welders who work with them from day to day. To draw a picture of the future of welding, we asked two welders to give us their insights on the road ahead.

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.
