KEPUNI Orbital Welding Machines: OEM/ODM & Customization Guide
KEPUNI Orbital Welding Machines: OEM, Customization & Cross-Industry Capabilities
KEPUNI is a brand of Shanghai Chuanli Industrial Co., Ltd., a high-tech enterprise certified by the Ministry of Science and Technology of China that integrates R&D, production, sales, and after-sales service for orbital welding equipment. This article provides procurement professionals with a factual assessment of KEPUNI's capability to deliver customized orbital welding solutions across regulated industries.
Why Supplier Capability Matters in Orbital Welding Procurement
Buyers evaluating orbital welding machines for high-purity or heavy-industrial applications must go beyond catalog specifications. The critical questions are: can the supplier handle custom materials, provide required certifications, integrate with existing MES/IoT systems, and deliver consistent quality at scale? KEPUNI addresses these requirements through four distinct production modes and extensive customization options, backed by a 36-person R&D team and a 10,000 m² factory.
KEPUNI’s Core Manufacturing & R&D Foundation
KEPUNI operates a production park of 10,000 m² with 280 employees, including 36 R&D engineers and technicians. The company has independent capabilities in R&D, production, sales, and after-sales service for closed orbital welding heads, open orbital welding heads, tube-to-tube sheet welding heads, cold welding machines, orbital cutting machines, tube facing machines, handheld laser welding machines, and ultrasonic metal-welding machines. Annual output reaches 3,000 units, and 100% of production is exported to Europe, Asia, South America, North America, and the Middle East.
Certification & Compliance
KEPUNI holds multiple CE certificates validated by UDEM and other notified bodies. For example, certificate number TCF25040101LVDEMC (issued 2025-04-02, valid until 2030-04-02) covers standards including EN ISO 12100:2010, EN 60204-1:2018, and EN 60825-1:2014 for LVD and EMC directives. These certifications apply to the XD-20PRO and XD-20W power supplies, as well as the 5H/10H split-type weld heads and 40/80/120/170 closed weld heads, among others.
Production Modes & Customization
KEPUNI offers four production service categories, each with defined lead times, MOQs, and quality controls:
- Sample Order: MOQ 1 unit, 15–20 days lead time, full inspection with weld sample report and detailed parameter documentation. Customization includes parameters, special materials (SS304, SS316, Titanium, Inconel), and non-standard sizes.
- Bulk Order: MOQ 5 units, 60–90 days (FOB Shanghai), monthly capacity 100+ units. Customization includes logo/color and packaging. Quality control via AQL 1.0 sampling, 100% key parameter verification.
- OEM/ODM: MOQ 1 unit, 30–45 days, monthly capacity 50–200 units. Customization extends to logo, color, voltage (110V/220V), interface, IoT/MES integration, and software. Quality includes 100% function test, weld sample test, and 72-hour burn-in test.
- After-Sales Service: Spare parts supply (7–15 days global), on-site repair, remote diagnosis via WhatsApp/WeChat, operator training, and annual maintenance contracts.
