APPLETON, Wis. (December 14, 2016) — Miller Electric Mfg. Co. and Hobart plan to exhibit at CONEXPO-CON/AGG 2017, North America’s largest construction tradeshow, March 7-11, 2017 in Las Vegas. Attendees to the show can explore the latest in welding and filler metal solutions, and see product demonstrations firsthand.

Miller and Hobart will be in booth B7502 in the Bronze Lot, showcasing solutions designed to address productivity, quality, safety and cost issues in applications that include field repair, construction, infrastructure and pipeline. Show visitors can see the latest products and gain hands-on experience with live welding demonstrations. Miller and Hobart representatives will also be available to provide product overviews and answer questions.

New technologies to be demonstrated at the show include ArcReach™ multiprocess welding systems, which allow welding operators to change process parameters remotely at the weld joint without the use of control cables. This results in improved productivity in stick, TIG, MIG and flux-cored welding by eliminating unnecessary trips to the power source and providing greater arc-on time. It also encourages best-practice weld settings and techniques and improves safety by reducing the opportunity for tripping hazards and jobsite fatigue. Several products from the ArcReach family of offerings will be on display, including the XMT® 350 VS ArcReach™, Dimension™ 650 ArcReach™ and the PipeWorx 350 FieldPro™ multiprocess welding system.

In addition, visitors can learn more about the simple and cost-effective heating capabilities of the ProHeat™ 35 Induction Heating System, which delivers fast and consistent heating for weld preheating, post-weld heat treatment, coating removal and shrink fit applications. Jobs that would typically take hours to heat can be done in minutes utilizing safe, efficient induction heating.

Also at the show, Miller will unveil a new EnPak work truck power solution for the marketplace that will deliver robust, reliable compressed air for jobsite tools, ample generator power for electrical needs and battery charging, plus versatile stick welding capabilities for repair and fabrication.

Additional Miller and Hobart products to be featured at the show include:

Big Blue® 400 Pro SF Welder/Generator
Big Blue® 600 Air Pak™ Welder/Generator
Big Blue® 800 Duo Air Pak™ Welder/Generator
Fabshield® XLR-8™ flux-cored wires
