Nobody.
Its a Chinese welder that someone has put a snap-on sticker onto.

Put up some photos of the plug and socket and someone will be able to identify it.

It's a basic generic Chinese TIG, there's loads of different brands with the same one.

Chinesium
The plug looks like the type on Lorch machines.
Does the body have about 5 little bayonets one being thicker than the other to orientate the plug? Then the locking ring locks with a ¼ turn?
You can buy a generic pedal or a decent SSC one, you just need to work out what pot value the machine is looking to see and then which are your switch wires and which are the pot wires.

That will be because the welder is perhaps not seeing the correct voltage from the pot to tell it how much current to apply.
Normally most basic pedals are 5 wires.
Two from the switch to initiate the HF start and maintain the arc.
Three from the Potentiometer to dictate the current the machine puts into the arc.
Have you opened up the existing pedal? Did it work correctly before?

Yes it had 2 loose wires i re solderd it has a nob on the side of the pedal it was working but it seemed to have less power when you used the pedal even though the settings on the welder where the same when I tried turning the nob up that's when it stopped working

Can you take some pictures? Some pedals have a knob on the side to control the maximum current the pedal can output. Maybe that pot has gone wrong.

Looks very similar to the Parweld foot pedal plug fitted to my new AC/DC welder
