Mechelonic Engineers has established itself as a leading solution provider in the resistance welding industry. Its success is rooted in continuous technological advancements, a strong commitment to research and development, and a dedicated team that shares a collective vision. Today, the company offers the widest range of welding products and services in the Indian market, delivering solutions that are ‘Bigger, Better, Faster, & More’ than any competitor.
In India, resistance welding has progressed significantly, with Mechelonic Engineers playing a key role in this niche sector. “Resistance welding, unlike other types of welding, involves no additional filler material. Instead, a high current is used to heat the parent material to a near-molten state, which is then fused under pressure to create a joint as strong as the original material. This process ensures minimal metallurgical changes and results in high-strength joints”, explains Gabin Kattukaran, Director, Mechelonic Engineers.
Unmatched Range & Reach:
The company has gained extensive experience over its 45 year existence. This enables it to offer the widest range of resistance welding machines for various applications. From small tabletop microspot welders to massive 15-ton machines used for rail track welding, their offerings cover the full spectrum of size, precision, & productivity. Additionally, the company has a nationwide presence, unmatched by any other Indian manufacturer, allowing them to serve diverse industries like Automotive, Switchgears, Defence, Power Generation, Railways, Packaging, Fencing & Construction, and Steel industries. This comprehensive reach, in terms of product range and geographic coverage, solidifies their leadership in the resistance welding market.
Mechelonic Engineers ensures high product quality by adhering to the relevant IS codes and customizing machine designs to meet customer specific requirements. Their welding machines, particularly transformers, are built for longevity and reliability, with no compromises on quality. With decades of experience, the company tailors its solutions to accommodate geographical and cultural differences in factory operations across India. Mechelonic Engineers also addresses customer pain points through innovative designs, as demonstrated by its work with Indian Railways, where the company developed a modified hydraulic system that has run smoothly for nearly 30 years, outperforming imported alternatives. Sustainability is a core focus for Mechelonic Engineers, as it strives to reduce energy consumption and minimize waste in its operations. By refining controls to ensure precise energy usage and designing machines that reduce energy and water waste, it helps customers lower operational costs. Its innovations in energy efficiency, such as moving from traditional 50 Hz line frequency to advanced 5 kHz medium frequency controls, enable finer control over energy usage, reduce waste heat, and minimize water management challenges on the shop floor.
The firm also emphasizes building long-term relationships with customers, suppliers, and team members. This approach fosters a continuous improvement cycle, leading to enhanced product offerings. For example, by nurturing a relationship with a two wheeler manufacturer and providing a machine on trial, Mechelonic Engineers eventually became their preferred supplier, with over 35 machines now in use.
Innovation backed by decades of experience ensures the best welding solution for even the most stringent requirements
In conclusion, while Mechelonic Engineers has maintained a boutique firm identity, the company is actively exploring growth opportunities. The automotive sector, particularly the shift to electric vehicles, presents a key focus, with machines developed specifically for EV production. The firm is also working on solutions for the metro rail industry and adapting to emerging trends in power generation. Further, the company is expanding into industrial automation, collaborating with a sister company to offer products encompassing welding and allied processes. While resistance welding remains core to the business, the company prepares for future technological shifts by exploring new areas and industries.
