NZ Pioneers in Welding Efficiency

Welding Engineers NZ Ltd were the first to bring flux cored wires to the NZ welding market with premium wires sourced from Japan. This innovative range of products has since proven its potential by becoming widely adopted in the NZ industry.

Welding Engineers NZ Ltd continued its ground-breaking role with the introduction of metal cored wires developed by Nippon Steel Welding & Engineering, and Kobelco Welding, two of the world’s leading welding wire manufacturers.

The ease and speed of application of these wires substantially reduce labour costs and, combined with the very low fume levels, made these metal cored wires a great leap forward for the welding industry.

Welding machines and their accessory technologies are developing at unprecedented speeds.  Welding Engineers NZ Ltd is proud to represent LORCH, winner of the 2018 Welding World award for Best New Welding Products with the LORCH MicorMig with NFC (near Field Communication). LORCH have several unique technologies which clear distinguish their welding machines from the pack, such as they were first in the world to produce a “high speed” resonance inverter welder.

LORCH still manufacture solely in Germany – a rarity in these days of out-sourcing – which ensures consistent high quality and lifetime reliability.

The future of welding is strongly linked to software and digitalization of processes, and change is happening at an ever increasing rate. Similar to phones, computers, cars, welding machines of today are much more advanced and efficient than the transformers of the past.

The challenge is to harness this capability at a level which is understandable, easy to use, and affordable. One of the reasons LORCH stands out for us is the emphasis on building strong, robust hardware which can be easily updated with new software as the user needs change and grow.
