About AC Wellman
Since our founding in 1902, AC Wellman has become the largest producer of X-ray marking and measuring devices in the world. AC Wellman sets the standard for the entire industry.
AC Wellman has provided quality, service, and value to our customers since 1902. From our roots as a pattern shop, we have evolved into what we are today. Our three primary product lines, as diverse as they may seem, are rooted in the pattern industry. Providing patterns to the foundry industry led us to the design, finishing, and restoration of bronze and aluminum plaques as the primary source of business. Over the years we developed other signage offerings and expertise.
AC Wellman’s Product Lines:
Pattern letters from AC Wellman are available in a broad variety of fonts, styles, and sizes. We have many in stock and ready to ship, and we can custom-make patterns, trademarks, and logos to meet your specifications. As in everything we do, quality is our top priority.
AC Wellman produces a wide range of X-ray and medical products including digital X-ray markers, position indicators, plastic & aluminum X-ray markers, unmounted lead letters, X-ray rulers, and specialty products such as copper filtered X-ray markers and oncology markers.
AC Wellman is a trusted source for historic plaque restoration and production. Our work with custom, high-quality bronze and aluminum plaques has proven our commitment to craftsmanship, personalized service, and attention to detail. We love creating and restoring plaques that make a statement for decades.
