Making weld cleaning easy and cost-efficient
May 28, 2024
Welding is all around us. It binds together the metals to build structures essential to our everyday lives. However, beyond the visible sparks and strong connections, there's an aspect often underestimated: weld cleaning. Especially with stainless steels, proper weld cleaning not only improves the aesthetic appearance of the weld but also ensures its strength, durability, and overall quality.

Behind the scenes - designing the new MasterTig
In welding equipment, creating a good and innovative design goes far beneath the surface. The equipment must be practical, functional, ergonomic, safe, reliable and cost-effective – while still maintaining an aesthetic appeal. Kemppi’s designers and engineers have applied user-centered design philosophy to numerous welding machines introduced since the company’s founding over 70 years ago – and most recently in the creation of the new generation MasterTig with complementary Flexlite TX TIG welding torches.

How to weld aluminum
Some metals, like aluminum, have a naturally occurring, tough surface oxide layer. That surface oxide layer must be removed to enable successful welding. In the case of aluminum alloys, the surface oxide layer has a significantly higher melting temperature (approximately 2000°C) than the melting temperature of the aluminum base material (660°C).

The double-pulse method makes TIG welding more efficient – even with demanding materials 555553
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.
