Whether you’re looking for
surface or subsurface defects;
alloy or hardness variations; wall
thickness measurement or other
conditions in bar, tube or parts,
we may already have the test
system you need.
Since 1928, MAC’s field
engineers — throughout Europe,
Asia, and the Americas —
have worked with thousands of
metal producers with specialized
requirements. We’ve developed
workable, cost-effective answers for
them, using MAC eddy current,
ultrasonic or flux leakage
inspection equipment and systems.

Finnish welding equipment manufacturer,
Kemppi OY, has launched two new wire
feed units – MF 29 and MSF 57 – for its
3-phase 230V/440V FastMig™ Basic and
Synergic MIG/MAG welding systems.
These systems are used in industrial
applications such as shipbuilding, offshore,
transport and general fabrication industries.
› The new MF 29 and MSF 57 wire feed units from
Kemppi
The MF 29 wire feed unit is designed for
the FastMig Basic power sources KM300,
KM400 and KM500, using 200mm wire
spools.
It features the latest DURATorque™ 200
2-roll wire feed mechanism with a low
energy consumption motor and accurate
gearing and transmission assembly. This
enables the unit to respond to rapid wire
feed acceleration and deceleration, and
makes it easy to start and stop welding.
The feed mechanism has been specifically
designed for smaller and lightweight
welding machines, and the shape of the
feed roll drive wheels allows the wire to be
gripped without damaging it during feeding.
The unit can also be fitted with an optional
gas flow regulator.
The MSF 57 is designed for FastMig
Synergic power sources KMS300, KMS400
and KMS500. It uses both 200mm
and 300mm wire spools, and features
the DURATorque 400 4-roll wire feed
mechanism, providing a steady and trouble-
free wire feed. The unit can be fitted with
either the SF54 or SF53 control panel,
mounted on the front of the feeder.
The SF54 control panel has a digital display,
stepless welding voltage and wire feed rate
controls, gas test button, wire feed switch
and an MMA welding option. The SF53
panel is designed for the most demanding
welding operations, and has all the features
of the SF54 panel plus crater filling, hot
start, creep start, and synergic programs for
most materials. It also memory channels for
saving MIG/MAG welding parameters.
Kemppi’s FastROOT™ software for root
pass welding is available as an option for
the SF53.
This provides added productivity and
fast control of root closure, especially
when welding ferrous and stainless steel
pipe.
Both wire feed units have a double-skinned
impact resistant plastic casing, and optional
hanging frames and protective slides for
easy moving.
