Welding is also an essential part of building a top racing car. The versatile, easy-to-use, portable Kemppi Master M 205 MIG welding machine makes work efficient and flexible in all indoor and outdoor environments.

It's not just about a top-class racing car but about world-class engineering

Formula Student is an international engineering design competition that challenges university students to design, build, and race formula-style race cars. Originally started in Texas in 1981 with four teams attending, Formula Student has grown to over 800 teams and 26 different races worldwide.

Formula Student requires a willingness and enthusiasm to develop your skills in a demanding project. Students will enhance their abilities in project management, engineering design, and manufacturing methods. It is an excellent way to accelerate their journey to becoming world-class engineers.

The cars are evaluated not only for their speed and performance on the track but also for their design, cost-effectiveness, and overall engineering ingenuity. Holistic, sustainable development has also become increasingly important.

Saving time and taking welding quality to a new level with Master M 205

When building a racing car, welding needs, and conditions vary. Sometimes, the work is done inside the garage, and sometimes, it can be done outside. Occasionally, the working space can be very cramped. The welding machine must be easily portable and suitable for a wide range of conditions.

"The ease of use of the welding machine is very important, as not everyone working in the garage may be a very experienced welder," says Jonas Lillevold, Revolve's Production Manager. "A quick and easy learning curve helps to stay on schedule. "

Despite its ease of use, with Master M 205 you never compromise on weld quality, which is essential when building a high performance racing car. The G-forces place significant stress on the frame structure so the welds need to be first class. The Weld Assist function makes it easy to find the right parameters for strongest welds possible. Just select the material thickness, joint type and welding position and start welding. Simple, fast and secure.

Uncompromising work and excellence lead to victory

Revolve NTNU has now reached a fantastic milestone: they have achieved their first-ever overall victory and are the winner of Formula Student Netherland 2024! Their determination and hard work were rewarded with a first place in autocross. The team also won the efficiency award, demonstrating that their car is not only fast but also energy-efficient. Additionally, the team performed strongly in all static tasks and achieved an incredibly impressive first place in engineering design. Congratulations on this remarkable success!
