These industry leaders (outdoor – booth 3731) will offer live welding demonstrations highlighting new welding technologies and processes for pipeline applications, and have experts available to assist booth visitors with product and process questions. The Miller Road Show truck featuring interactive weld cells and demonstration areas will also be at the booth.

Industry-leading technologies featured in the booth will include:

–Big Blue® 350 PipePro® System: a fully integrated system designed for the demanding world of pipeline welding. Components of the system include: Miller Big Blue® 350 PipePro® diesel engine-driven welder/AC generator; Hobart Brothers Fabshield® 79T8 self-shielded, flux-cored tubular wire (E71T8-Ni1 J H8); Miller SuitCase® X-TREME™ 8 HD wire feeder; Bernard PipePro Dura-Flux™ Gun with replaceable power cable liner; Miller Wireless Remote Hand Control

-An industry exclusive, the Miller Big Blue 700 Duo Pro – a complete multi-process and multi-operator welder/generator that delivers two independent pipe welding quality arcs in one complete package. It also features two independent generators (5,500-watts peak/4,000 watts continuous and 27,000-watts peak/20,000 watts continuous) for running jobsite tools, accessories or even additional inverter-based welding systems.

–Miller ProHeat™ 35 Induction Heat System is an industry exclusive, simple and cost-effective heating process that delivers fast and consistent heat for pre-heating, post-weld heat treatment, coating removal and more — all without heating gas.

-The Miller Trailblazer® 302 Air Pak™ offers true 4-in-1 performance as a welder, generator, air compressor and battery charger/jump starter. This machine is ideal for service truck use and is an excellent tool for new construction and MRO.

–EnPak® Mechanic Series is an industry exclusive diesel engine-driven air compressor, hydraulic pump and generator that integrates into a truck’s fuel and electrical supply, allowing full functionality with the truck engine turned off, lowering fuel use and idle time, reducing noise and extending the life of the mechanic’s truck.

–Miller Arc Armor™ is a full line of welding safety gear and equipment designed specifically for welding applications. Miller will showcase everything from auto-darkening welding helmets and jackets to heat stress relief products and powered air purifying respirators.

-Hobart Brothers Fabshield® X80 self-shielded flux-cored wire, designed for use on X80 pipe and applications requiring high impact toughness at low temperatures.

-Hobart Brothers Metalloy® 80N1 metal-cored wire, utilized for root pass applications on X80 grade pipe (and below) using the Miller Regulated Metal Deposition (RMD®) process.

-Tregaskiss TOUGH GUN™ Semi-Automatic MIG Gun, designed for heavy-duty welding applications, particularly in harsh environments. The guns are enhanced by the TOUGH LOCK™ Consumables, which help minimize consumable changeover and the associated downtime.

-Tregaskiss TGX™ Semi-Automatic MIG Gun for light- to medium-duty welding applications. The gun is available with two handle sizes and in models ranging from 180 to 400 amps.

-Weldcraft’s CS-300 TIG torch, featuring high air-cooling capacity that eliminates the need and expense for complex water-cooling systems and increases portability on the job site.
