ASPA is the leading manufacturer of resistance welding machines in Poland. The company's high position on the Polish and foreign markets stems from over 60 years of tradition and extensive experience in the design and manufacture of metal welding equipment. With its own design and research department, ASPA constantly creates new technological solutions and introduces them in thousands of devices and welding stations located throughout Poland and Central and Eastern Europe.

At present, we are Poland's largest manufacturer of spot, multipoint, hump, butt and tack welding machines, linear and tick welding machines, as well as complete welding lines and special equipment.
