Industrial welding

From a single weld run to a finished assembly

Plenty of workshops weld because they happen to own welding sets. We work to qualified welding procedures (WPS/WPQR) with welders qualified to EN ISO 9606-1, because a good share of what leaves here ends up inside a machine where one joint letting go stops the customer's line.

That is the practical difference: we don't just lay the weld run your drawing asks for, we can document how it was laid. We record the parameters part by part, and if your specification calls for a material certificate or a dimensional report, it goes out with the delivery.

The other half of the job is the assembly. We cut, bend, weld and machine the assembly once it is welded, all under one roof. That is what fixes the final dimension on a frame, and what stops welding distortion showing up as a surprise on your own fitting bench.

Processes

Welding processes we offer

We run MIG/MAG both ways, robot and hand, and we choose between them based on what the part needs — not on what happens to be free that morning.

01
Robotic MIG/MAG welding

More than 5 robot cells for medium and long production runs in carbon steel. The robot lays the same weld run with the same parameters on part 1 and on part 2,000, which is precisely what nobody can promise you by hand.

02
Manual MIG/MAG welding

8 qualified welders on the payroll for prototypes, short runs, awkward geometry and everything that is not worth robotising. Qualified to EN ISO 9606-1.

03
Assembly welding

Full build-up of sub-assemblies and structures: tack welding on a jig, a weld sequence worked out to keep distortion under control, and a dimensional check on the finished assembly before we sign it off.

04
Welding jigs of our own

We design and build in-house the fixtures that hold the parts through the process. That shortens the start-up of a new project and means we are not waiting on a third party every time a clamp needs moving.

Quality

Qualified welding and documentation

What a purchasing department needs to see before it puts a supplier of welded assemblies on its approved list.

01
Qualified procedures (WPS/WPQR)

We work to qualified welding procedures. If your specification requires welding under a WPS, tell us with the enquiry: we will confirm what we cover before quoting, rather than finding out with the part already made.

02
Welders qualified to EN ISO 9606-1

8 qualified welders on the payroll, qualified to EN ISO 9606-1. That is not a brochure line: it is what lets us sign off a part that is going to inspection.

03
Traceability of the process

We record the welding parameters for every part. If something comes back three months later, what it was welded with can be reconstructed instead of guessed at.

04
3.1 material certificate

We supply an EN 10204 3.1 material certificate whenever your specification calls for it, with traceability back to the cast of the steel used.

05
Dimensional report

Verification of the assembly's critical dimensions, with the report handed over if you need it for your goods-inwards file.

06
ISO 9001:2015

Quality management system certified by AENOR, registration ER-0002/2009, with international IQNet recognition.

Tell us what the specification asks for before we quote. We manufacture components and assemblies to the customer's drawing and specification. If your project calls for non-destructive testing — dye penetrant, magnetic particle or ultrasonic — we coordinate it with a laboratory and hand you the report. Settling it at enquiry stage saves surprises later, because it moves both the price and the lead time.
Robot or hand?

When the robot pays off

A robot is not better than a welder, it is different. These are the six things it brings once the part and the quantity are on its side.

01
Consistent quality

The robot lays every weld run with exactly the same parameters, which takes human variability out of the job. Every part comes out identical to the one before it.

02
More output per hour

Robotic welding runs up to 3-5 times faster than manual welding, and that pulls the unit cost down across a production run.

03
Less waste

The accuracy of the torch path keeps wire and gas consumption down, cuts spatter and removes rework caused by weld defects.

04
Full repeatability

Once the path is programmed, the robot repeats it to the millimetre through thousands of cycles without drifting.

05
Safer working

The operator is not standing in the fume, the UV or the heat while the arc is running.

06
Complete traceability

We record the welding parameters of every part, which gives full traceability of the process for the sectors that ask for it.

And when it does not pay off. Programming the robot and setting the jig takes time, and that time has to be spread across the parts in the run. On small quantities, on prototypes and on assemblies with awkward geometry or difficult access, you are better off — and it costs you less — with a welder doing it. That is why we keep both: we are not going to robotise a batch of 20 parts just to keep the cell busy.

The overhead crane's 5-tonne capacity is the practical limit on what we can handle and despatch in one piece. Above that, talk to us and we will look at how to split the assembly.

Assemblies

When the hard part is not the weld, it is the assembly

Anyone can weld two plates together. What separates one supplier from the next is handing over a twenty-part assembly that is still within tolerance after it has been welded.

That is not solved by welding better, it is solved earlier: with the jig that holds the parts, with a weld sequence worked out so the distortion cancels itself instead of stacking up, and with tack welding and a check before the final runs go down. All three happen here.

And when the finished dimension is not up for discussion, the assembly goes to the machining centre after welding: bores, mounting faces and reference holes are machined on the assembly as it has ended up, which is the only way to be sure the frame goes together first time.

That whole chain — cutting, edge preparation, bending, welding, machining and assembly — happens under one roof. For you that means one contact, one lead time and one company answerable if it goes wrong.

Sectors

Sectors we supply

We manufacture components and assemblies to the customer's drawing. These are the parts that go out of here most often.

01
Automotive and commercial vehicle

Brackets, cross members, reinforcements and welded subassemblies. This is our main sector and where the robot earns its keep: long runs where the weld has to come out the same on part 1 and part 5,000, with the parameters logged in case the customer asks six months later.

02
Machinery and capital equipment

Frames, base frames, chassis, casings, cowlings and guards. The classic case of the machine builder who wants the assembly welded and machined, ready to go on the line, instead of four workshops to chase.

03
Energy and structural work

Brackets, frames and sub-assemblies for photovoltaic structures, and components for steel fabricators. Long runs, where unit cost and a consistent weld run are what decide the job.

04
Agriculture and livestock

Components for farm machinery, trailers and poultry and livestock equipment. Heavy-duty parts, weld runs with proper penetration and finishes that survive weather and washing down.

05
Civil works, quarrying and lifting

Hoppers, buckets, wear plates and materials-handling structures. This is where the high-strength steels such as Hardox or Strenx come in, always on request and with parameters adapted to them.

Process

How we handle your order

From file to delivery, so you know at what point we are going to come back and ask you something.

01
Drawings received

You send us the assembly drawing and the part drawings in .dxf, .dwg, .step, .iges or .pdf. If your specification calls for welding to a qualified procedure, or for particular documentation, this is the moment to say so.

02
Technical review

We look at torch access to each weld run, edge preparation and welding sequence. If something on the drawing makes the job harder without buying you anything, we say so before quoting.

03
Quotation within 24 working hours

Price, lead time and terms. No minimum order quantity: from a single one-off to runs of several thousand.

04
Jig and first-off part

We build the jig, weld a first part and check it. Until the first-off is right, the run does not start.

05
Production and recording

The run is made with the welding parameters recorded as we go. If the assembly needs machining afterwards, it goes to the machining centre already welded.

06
Check and delivery

Dimensional check on the critical dimensions, the documentation agreed and packing. Delivered to your plant or collected from our works, whichever suits you.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions about industrial welding

What kinds of robotic welding do you offer? +

Robotic MIG/MAG welding, plus manual welding for special parts or short runs. Our five-plus robot cells give high repeatability and consistent quality on every weld run.

What production volumes make robotic welding worthwhile? +

Robotic welding really starts to pay from medium runs upwards (100+ parts), although it can still be worth it on smaller batches if the part needs high accuracy and repeatability. We look at each case on its own merits.

What materials can you weld with the robot? +

Mainly carbon steel, with MIG/MAG robots. Each material is programmed with its own travel speed, current and shielding gas so that the weld runs come out as they should. Stainless steel on request only, and with customer-supplied material.

Can you make the welding jig? +

Yes. We design and build in-house the welding fixtures needed to hold the parts through the robotic process. That gives us complete flexibility and cuts the start-up time on a new project.

Are your welders qualified? +

Yes. We have 8 qualified welders on the payroll, qualified to EN ISO 9606-1, and we work to qualified welding procedures (WPS/WPQR). If your specification calls for a particular qualification, state it with the enquiry and we will confirm what we cover before quoting.

What documentation do you supply with the parts? +

Whatever your specification asks for: an EN 10204 3.1 material certificate with traceability back to the cast, a dimensional report on the critical dimensions, and the record of the welding parameters. Non-destructive testing (dye penetrant, magnetic particle, ultrasonic) we coordinate with a laboratory and hand you the report. Agree it with us at enquiry stage, because it affects both price and lead time.

What size and weight of assembly can you make? +

The practical limit is handling: we have an overhead crane up to 5 tonnes, and that is what we can move and despatch in one piece. Above that weight we look at splitting the assembly into sub-assemblies that bolt together or are welded on site. Send us the drawing and we will tell you.

Can you machine the assembly after welding it? +

Yes, and in many cases that is the right way round. Welding distorts, so the dimensions that really matter — bores, mounting faces, reference holes — are best taken after welding, on the assembly as it has ended up. We have CNC machining centres with tables up to 3 metres, which is what lets a whole frame go in.

What is the lead time on a welded assembly? +

You will have the quotation in under 24 working hours. For welded assemblies and fitting the indicative lead time is 2 to 3 weeks, and it moves with the scope of the project and with whether there is a surface treatment involved. For urgent work, ask us.

Do you work with customer-supplied material? +

Yes. You can supply the material or we can buy it, and you tell us which when you ask for the quotation. In carbon steel we normally supply it ourselves. In stainless steel, aluminium and galvanised we work on request and with customer-supplied material.

Do you need robotic welding for your production?

Send us your drawings and we will look at the technical and commercial feasibility with no obligation. Quotation in under 24 working hours.
