Features

24/7/365 Support Line!
Support Hotline provides customer service and parts support.
Extremely High Productivity
High speed "ferris wheel" positioner with three independent servo motors provides industry leading indexing times, which maximizes welding production time.

118" span between the head and tail stock with 1100 lb. capacity on each side.

Available dual robot configuration allows a second robot to be added, theoretically doubling throughput with no additional floor space required.

GMAW and GTAW applications.
Full Range of Welding Processes
AccuPulse
AccuCurve
TAWERS
SP-MAG II
100% CO2
RMD
Active Wire Process -low energy short circuit and zero spatter.
GMAW-P
GTAW -with and without filler Aluminum -low pulse, dual pulse, synchronized weaving

Load Station Flexibility
Optional load station jogging provides complete load position flexibility, allowing multi-stage loading or tack and finish welding to occur in a common welding fixture.

Servo Positioners allow the parts to be rotated into the desired welding position, maximizing torch access and welding quality.
Long Term Support and Reliability
Setting the standard in the welding industry for quality, reliability and productivity since 1996. The PerformArc is backed by Miller today and tomorrow.
Safety and Performance
Designed in accordance with ANSI/RIA R15.06-2012, UL1740, NFPA 79 and CSA Z434.

L-shaped light curtains, interlocked safety gates, dual channel safety circuit, two stationary arc flash barriers, main axis sweep monitor, and auxiliary axis servo disconnect at operator station during load/unload are standard.

Solid sheet metal wall panels.
Quick Assembly
A fully welded frame, pre-wired and pre-assembled ships in three sections for quick assembly.

Driving Improvements in Automation with Welding Information
In addition to the quality, productivity and cost-savings benefits fixed and flexible welding automation can offer companies, implementing a welding information management system in a robotic weld cell can add to efficiencies and profitability. Production and weld process data, along with weld process features each make an impact.
Navigating OSHA's Hierarchy of Controls to Minimize Weld Fume
Protecting employees against weld fumes is as much a matter of creating a safe and clean work environment as it is giving companies a competitive advantage to attract and retain skilled welding operators. The Occupational Safety and Health Administration outlines steps for weld fume management in its Hierarchy of Controls to help companies improve workplace safety and compliance.
7 Questions to Ask Before Purchasing a Welding Information Management Solution
Welding information management solutions can help companies address pain points by offering effective training, increasing productivity, reducing costs, enforcing proper weld sequence and preventing missed welds — among other benefits. Before making the investment, however, it is important to ask some key questions to ensure the best results.
