We’re excited to announce the introduction of the new Spectrum 875 Auto-Line plasma cutter to our product line up. Featuring the ability to connect the unit to any input voltage from 208 to 575 volts without the need for any physical linking mechanism, the Spectrum 875 Auto-Line provides convenience and versatility in field applications using either generator or “wall” power.
The Auto-Line feature also allows the unit to seamlessly recognize and respond to power fluctuations due to brownouts or the heavy loads from other machinery without any fluctuations in cutting performance.
And for those who want to take their cutting precision to the next level, an optional machine torch package is available that allows the unit to be hooked up to a variety of automated cutting systems.

For Ultra Machine and Fabrication (Shelby, N.C.), investing in advanced Pulsed MIG technology was a critical step in positioning the company to win a major contract to provide over 74,000 components for M-ATVs to an Israeli defense firm.
The vehicles are similar to the MRAP (mine resistant ambush protected) vehicles used by the U.S. military, and require the utmost quality from their welds in order to be effective at protecting their occupants from road-side attacks and improvised explosive devices.
The contract called for Ultra to be able to weld MIL-A 46100 ballistic steel in all positions with a 307 stainless steel filler metal, and using the Accu-Pulse™ Pulsed MIG technology in Miller’s Axcess® “multi-MIG” systems, the company was able to produce those components with only 23 defects — a rate of .03 percent.

Wondering if upgrading to Pulsed TIG for your stainless steel applications will net your company any tangible benefits? Then look no further than the test results of a recently completed comparison between standard TIG and four different pulsing programs.
In short, pulsed TIG yielded a 52 percent narrower bead width, 34 percent increased penetration, 60 percent lower heat input, 35 percent faster travel speeds and better overall weld quality!

Building on the proven reliability and performance of our XR Control aluminum MIG push-pull wire feeder, Miller introduces two new models, the XR-S Control and XR-D Control, designed to meet the specific needs of basic and more advanced aluminum MIG applications.
Featuring adjustable run-in, jog & purge, a digital wire feed speed display and the option of using pre- and post-flow, the XR-S Control feeder meets the needs of basic aluminum MIG push-pull applications without all the bells and whistles that aren’t needed & that might lead to inconsistencies between operators.
Taking things a step further, the XR-D Control features point-of-use remote voltage control, digital voltage display, programmable pre- and post-flow, and adjustable start and crater settings.
Check out the XR-S & XR-D news release for more information about the features and benefits of these new products as well as the applications and industries they are designed to serve.
