Effortless root pass and thin sheet welding

18 de octubre de 2023

Kemppi has launched three new MAX welding processes (MAX Cool, MAX Speed and MAX Position) for the Master M and X5 FastMig product families to improve productivity, quality and usability in the challenging welding applications. MAX Cool lowers the heat input and operates in a short arc area so it’s ideal for steel welding and MIG brazing. The welding characteristics of MAX Cool have been fine-tuned to allow high-quality root pass and thin sheet welding.

The double-pulse method makes TIG welding more efficient – even with demanding materials

TIG welding is a commonly used welding process for metals that are considered challenging to weld, such as titanium. It is the easiest and safest method for achieving high quality with small equipment investments. However, the number of weld passes required makes TIG welding slow and laborious, and productivity suffers. The double-pulse feature of Kemppi's new MasterTig has been developed to make TIG welding more efficient.
