Any suggestions on who makes decently priced tooling for double end tenoners? Specifically panel raisers and ogee door edge plus round over with bead door edge cutters.

Hi, trying to understand what you're looking for. Are you looking for tooling to be mounted on a double ended tenoner for machining tenons, or are you looking for shaper tooling that will match the profiles you already have for your tenoner?

To do edge profiles and raised panels on a double end machine would require left and right tooling. It’s possible to do this with braised tools but most use stacked insert tooling on sleeves nowadays. This can get very expensive as these machines are suited for high volume production. What make of tenoner?
The local cabinet door manufacturer here uses a SCM double ender for one product they make a lot of and a SCM Center machine for random production of other doors. Plus other types of cabinet door equipment also. I believe they are using Leitz insert tools on the double ender.
if the spindles are not movable longitudinal the tooling would also need to have all the same cutting zero dimension.
a lot depends on what machine you have.
A lot of domestic and European tooling companies can make cutters for these.
