BEST WELDER
•The idea for the device came about because welding tanks and heat exchangers was extremely strenuous, and we wanted to improve the welding quality even further. We searched for devices on the market that would suit our type of use, but all of them turned out to be bulky and difficult to use.
•The first prototype was developed in 2008 (only circumferential welding).
•The second prototype came in 2018 (we added a feed motor for longitudinal welding).
•The third prototype was created in 2021.
•The first unit was available for sale in 2022.
•Best Welder already has an established user base in Finland.
•Exports to date: Balticum, Norway, Canada
•Patented
Further developement has been done during 2025 with features like:
