In conversation with Avirup Ghosh, Business Leader Robotics And Rashmi Ranjan Mohapatra, MD, Kemppi.

Robotic welding techniques are expected to offer a much clear and qualitative output, being driven mainly by the automotive sector. Kindly elaborate how Kemppi is positioned in the robotic welding industry with its expertise and opportunities.
Kemppi has grown exponentially in the last couple of years especially in the Robotics Welding market. The main reasons behind Kemppis’s monumental growth have been the Robotic Welding machine that is IoT 4.0 popularized A7. It is much more versatile and it is much more robot friendly as it connects to any branded robots. The second advantage what we have is that we are having two robotic solution centres one in Pune,

and the other one in Chennai. Those are located at the prime location where people are looking for solutions.

very strongly in the robotic field. We have collaborated with most of the Robotic arm builders worldwide.

Kindly share a success story of your organization to be highlighted in the profile wherein the client's requirements were successfully met.
We have worked very recently for a project not with a customer, but it is for an Indian defence agency where we are supplying the Brahmos Missile to the Indian government. Brahmos missile parts are of a very special material that has not been welded previously. We have asked customer for a wire which they can provide. They have sent those wires to Finland where we have developed a software according to the requirement and rebuild their entire products.

Brief us on any innovation or up gradation which is going to be introduced in the future?
We will be ready for whatever new challenges that is coming up and not only for the power sources that we are already giving as a solution to the customers, but new developments will always be in. Kemppi is one of the biggest brands in the European market, and we take inputs from all the people who are already in the market doing the welding, and according to that we will be providing solutions to anybody who needs it. There are some new launches also coming up by mid of this year which will be very exciting to the Indian scenario.

What is the road map that has been envisioned by Kemppi for its future?
As we witness Kemppis’s market share growing in the Robotic market end. We had predicted the growth of robots will increases in India though less compared to that of China,but if you compare according to manual power sources the robotic power sources are increasing, and Kemppi helps put up a talent to penetrate all the divisions that are possible to do welding in robotics. Therefore, we are ready for the market and, we intend to be present in the entire segment.
