World-Class Resistance Welding Equipment
Backed by More Than 70 Years of Engineering Experience

When you purchase a TECNA resistance welder from Production Engineering, you’re getting more than industry-leading equipment. You’re partnering with a company that has helped manufacturers improve their resistance welding operations since 1953.

Our mission is simple: combine world-class equipment with knowledgeable engineering support to help manufacturers select, install, and maintain the right welding solution for their application.

About TECNA

TECNA equipment is used every day in automotive, appliance, transportation, aerospace, wire fabrication, and general manufacturing facilities around the world. Their reputation has been built on precision engineering, long service life, and continuous product innovation.

Why Production Engineering Represents TECNA

Production Engineering has served manufacturers since 1953, long before becoming a TECNA distributor.

Founded in Dayton, Ohio, by engineer Carl Bertsche Sr., our company was built on a simple belief: manufacturers deserve a supplier that understands the equipment it sells.

More than seven decades later, that philosophy still guides everything we do.

Rather than carrying dozens of competing brands, we choose to represent manufacturers whose products meet the standards we expect for our customers. TECNA’s commitment to engineering excellence, product quality, and long-term reliability makes them a natural fit.

Engineering Support That Goes Beyond the Sale

Buying a resistance welder isn’t simply choosing a machine with enough kVA.

Every application is different.

Material type, thickness, electrode geometry, transformer sizing, force requirements, duty cycle, cooling capacity, and production volume all affect welding performance.

Our team works with customers to recommend the right equipment—not simply the most expensive machine.

Whether you’re selecting your first projection welder, replacing an aging spot welder, integrating a robotic weld cell, or expanding an automated production line, we can help evaluate your application and recommend the appropriate TECNA solution.

More Than Machines

Production Engineering supports customers throughout the life of their equipment by providing:

  • Application assistance
  • Equipment selection
  • Resistance welding controls
  • Welding transformers
  • Replacement parts
  • Electrodes and consumables
  • Cooling equipment
  • Technical support
  • Service coordination
  • System upgrades

 

Our goal isn’t simply to sell equipment—it’s to help manufacturers build reliable, repeatable welding processes that improve productivity for years to come.
