Fast change to mechanisation

With its new easy to operate, magnetic carriage unit, the MagTrac F61, Kemppi offers a fast and economic way of changing from manual MIG/MAG welding to productive mechanisation.

It is designed to improve welding productivity through mechanisation in shipyards and the offshore industry, chemical and process industries, large steel structure fabric ation and other larger fabrication shops by simply connecting it to Kemppi's semi-automatic FastMig KMS Synergic and FastMig Pulse 350/450 MIG/MAG welding systems.

MagTrac 61, weighing only 6.9kg, is a mechanised rail-less drive method using permanent magnetic suction and 4 guide wheels and runs along guide rollers held onto the workpiece by powerful magnets. Kemppi says it can weld at up to 5 times faster than manual MIG welding, where the average welding speed is around 200-400mm/min; in light mechanisation using MagTrac 61, it can be from 150- 1800mm/min when horizontal fillet welding.
