Partners

We supply theautonomy. You keepthe relationship.

In brief

Weldeon is a product company, not an integrator. Cell design, mechanical work, fixturing and commissioning belong with the partners who already do them well.

Types

Four kinds of partner

Each has a different reason to work with us and a different commercial shape.

Robotic integrators

You design and commission cells. Weldeon adds the autonomy layer, and you keep the cell scope, the margin and the customer.

Equipment OEMs

Power sources, robots, positioners, cutting and NDT systems. Deep adapter work and joint reference deployments.

NDT and inspection providers

Machine-read interpretation alongside your qualified inspectors, with adjudication data improving both sides.

Advisory and consulting

Operations and quality consultancies using Weldeon as the instrument behind a transformation programme.

Why partner

Autonomy needs hands on the floor

A welding cell is not a software deployment. It is fixtures, guarding, cable management, torch reach, positioner selection and a hundred mechanical judgements that take years to learn.

Weldeon has no ambition to build that competence. Our value sits in perception, reasoning and bounded control — the layer that makes an existing cell adaptive rather than programmed.

So the partnership is unusually clean. Integrators keep cell scope and margin; OEMs sell more capable equipment; NDT providers extend their throughput; and fabricators get one team accountable for the metal and one for the intelligence.

Programme

How partnering works

Four stages, with commercial terms defined at each.

  1. 01

    Technical alignment

    Adapter coverage for your controllers and equipment is confirmed or scoped. Gaps are quoted honestly.

  2. 02

    Joint reference

    One shared customer deployment with clear scope boundaries and a shared scorecard.

  3. 03

    Enablement

    Your engineers are trained on integration, envelopes and the operations runbook, with materials you can reuse.

  4. 04

    Commercial terms

    Referral, resale or co-sell terms depending on how you prefer to hold the customer relationship.

Adapters

Equipment we already speak to

Adapter coverage is the practical starting point for most partner conversations.

Welding power sources
Fronius, Lincoln Electric, Miller, ESAB, EWM and Kemppi digital interfaces for parameter read and bounded write.
Robots & positioners
FANUC, ABB, KUKA, Yaskawa Motoman, Panasonic and Cloos controllers, plus headstock, tailstock and gantry positioners.
Cutting & forming
Plasma, laser and oxy tables, press brakes and roll formers via OPC UA or vendor APIs.
Inspection & NDT
Digital radiography, phased-array ultrasonic, laser profilometry and shop vision — DICONDE and vendor formats.
Seam & joint sensing
Laser seam trackers, through-arc sensing, structured-light scanners and thermal cameras.
MES, ERP & quality
SAP, Oracle, Plex, Tulip, Fabsuite, Tekla, and weld-data systems for WPS, PQR, welder qualification and traceability.
Boundary

Where our scope ends

The autonomy layer reads sensors and writes bounded parameters and motion. Everything mechanical, electrical and safety-related in the cell stays with the integrator.

Value

What partners get

Scope

cell integration scope and margin stay with the integrator

Reuse

adapter work done once is reused across your customer base

Evidence

shared scorecards you can take to your next prospect

Support

direct access to the engineers who wrote the adapters

“Integrators build the cell. We make it adaptive. Confusing those two roles helps nobody.”

Expectations

What we ask of partners

Short list, held firmly.

  1. 01

    Represent status honestly

    No implied certifications, no customer results that have not been published, no autonomy claims beyond the envelope.

  2. 02

    Respect the envelope

    Nobody configures a route around a qualified range — not in commissioning, not under schedule pressure.

  3. 03

    Trained engineers only

    Deployments are led by engineers who have completed enablement. This is a safety-critical process.

  4. 04

    Feed back the failures

    Adapter edge cases and failed deployments come back to us fast. That is most of the value we get from partnering.

Begin

Bring autonomy to thearc, the fit-up andthe inspection bay.

Book a pilot on one cell or line. We agree the scorecard before we start — first-pass yield, rework hours, defect escapes, takt — and we report against it in the open.
