Let’s create the best #SolderJoints powerful together
In 2025, we celebrate 80 years of Weller. It all began in 1945, when Carl E. Weller
founded the Weller Manufacturing Company and laid the foundation for what
would become a global leader in professional hand soldering. Since then,
Weller has pioneered countless innovations – always adapting to the increasing
complexity of our customers’ needs.
Today, we continue this journey with the same spirit. We empower people in
industries from aerospace to electronics – through smart soldering platforms,
our newly structured product portfolio (such as the WE EfficiencyLine,
WT PerformanceLine, WX TechnologyLine, and WXsmart) and our strong
commitment to sustainability and precision.
A further highlight of this evolution is our Future Originals initiative. Driven by a
young, international team, it brings fresh energy to our world – connecting with
students, makers, and young professionals through content, events, and real
hands-on experiences, such as the Maker Faire. It’s a bold step to inspire the
next generation of soldering enthusiasts.
In this second edition of #SOLDERJoint, you’ll also discover exciting application
stories from around the world, an impressive deep dive into today’s and tomorrow’s space industry, and the voices of our diverse Weller community – from the
next generation to seasoned experts, including the women shaping the future
through Women@Weller. And we’re just getting started.
Join us at productronica this fall to experience the full power of Weller –
through expert talks, live repairs, and a celebration of 80 years of soldering
excellence. Because even after all these years, one thing remains true:
we’re still #PowerfulTogether.
Happy reading and sharing!
