Metal Fabrication Equipment
Welding Equipment Financing
Crest Capital finances welding equipment for established fabrication shops, manufacturers, contractors and repair shops, from $10,000 to $500,000 on one simple application. That covers welders and power sources, positioners and fixturing, robotic welding cells, and plasma cutting and fume control, new or used, from a dealer, a manufacturer or another business.

How We Finance It
How Does Crest Capital Finance Welding Equipment?
Crest Capital finances welding equipment by the purchase: a full shop package, a robotic cell with its installation, or used equipment from another business.
| Purchase situation | What Crest can finance |
|---|---|
| A full shop package | Welders, positioners, welding tables, plasma cutting and fume extraction, financed together on one application. |
| A robotic welding cell | The robot, power source, wire feeder, positioner, guarding and controls. Installation and other soft costs can be included, up to 25% of the loan amount. |
| Used equipment | Used welders, positioners and robotic cells from a dealer, a manufacturer or another business. |
| A personal or hobby purchase | Not financed. Crest Capital finances equipment for established businesses. |

What We Finance
What Welding Equipment Can You Finance?
Crest Capital finances the full welding package: MIG, TIG, stick and engine-drive welders, positioners and fixturing, robotic welding cells, and the cutting and fume control equipment around them.
MIG and Flux-Cored Welders
MIG welders feed a wire electrode through the gun under shielding gas for clean, productive welds on steel, stainless and aluminum. Self-shielded flux-cored wire carries its own flux and welds outdoors without a gas cylinder.
TIG Welders
TIG welders hold the arc on a tungsten electrode, with filler rod added by hand, for precise welds on stainless, aluminum and thin material.
Stick and Engine-Drive Welders
Stick welders run coated electrodes for structural, field and repair work. Engine-drive welders carry their own engine and generator to weld and run tools on sites without utility power.
Positioners and Fixturing
Positioners and turning rolls rotate the work so it can be welded in the flat position, column and boom manipulators carry the welding head along long seams, and welding tables and fixtures hold parts in place.
Robotic Welding Cells
A robotic welding cell combines a robot arm, a welding power source and wire feeder, a positioner and guarding. Collaborative welding robots bring automation to smaller shops and shorter runs.
Plasma Cutting and Fume Control
Plasma cutters and CNC plasma tables cut steel, stainless and aluminum for fit-up, and fume extraction arms and filtration units capture welding fume at the source.
Repair Shops
Welders for Auto Body, Truck and Equipment Repair Shops
Crest Capital finances welders for established collision, truck and equipment repair shops, together with the lifts, frame machines and other repair equipment around them.
Collision repair shops use MIG welders on body panels and frames, and resistance spot welders where a vehicle maker's repair procedure calls for factory-style spot welds. Truck, trailer and equipment repair shops add stick and multiprocess welders for heavier steel, and plasma cutters to remove damaged sections before rebuilding them.
Buying Used
What Should You Check Before Buying a Used Welder?
Check that a used welder matches your shop's power, delivers the output you need, and has sound wear parts and safety systems:
- The input power, single phase or three phase and its voltage, matches your shop's electrical supply.
- The rated output and duty cycle cover the amperage you weld at.
- Wire feeder drive rolls, liners, guns, torches, cables and ground clamps show no excessive wear.
- On a robotic cell, the controller and software are supported, the service records are complete, and the guarding and safety interlocks work.
