If you’re shopping for a refurbished spot welder, you’re already taking an important step toward improving repair quality and productivity. For collision repair facilities working on today’s advanced vehicle materials, upgrading from traditional MIG welding to resistance spot welding can be a significant advantage.
However, not all spot welders are created equal.
Many shops purchase refurbished welders based solely on price or familiarity. While a technician may be comfortable using a particular machine from a previous shop, that doesn’t always mean it’s the best solution for your facility’s current repair needs.
At Lombard Equipment, we’ve accepted numerous spot welders as trade-ins when customers upgraded to GYS welding systems. After comparing the performance, technology, OEM approvals, and ease of use, many repair facilities discover that a GYS spot welder provides a better long-term solution for modern collision repair.
Whether you’re repairing high-strength steel vehicles, pursuing OEM certifications, or simply looking to improve repair quality and efficiency, it’s important to evaluate all available options before making a purchase.
That’s why we encourage repair facilities to compare their options and see the difference for themselves. In many cases, qualified shops can even test a GYS welder in their own facility with no obligation.
Before investing in a spot welder, speak with one of our collision repair equipment specialists to determine which system best fits your shop’s needs.
