Why Miller Welding
We have a choice when it comes to the welding machine I use. I could choose to use ESAB, Lincoln Welding, Fronius, Panasonic, and a bunch of others. But I choose Miller Welding equipment. Why? There are actually several reasons but the number one reason is the people. Every Miller Electric representative that I have dealt with has been knowledgeable and more than helpful.
After visiting the Miller Welding equipment headquarters in Appleton, Wisconsin, and seeing the rigorous testing the welding machines go through, we are even more convinced that they make quality welding machines.Weattended a focus group type seminar once that was mostly comprised of technicians that repaired welding machines.
They all preferred working on Miller welding machines. When we asked why, they all agreed that customer support, parts availability and dependability, were big factors that impressed them.We have welded with Miller, L-Tec, Linde, Lincoln, Hobart, and even JC Penney welding machines. Honestly, if someone were to paint them all black, I am not sure I could tell some of them apart by the arc (The JC Penney one, I definitely could tell).
But the customer support thing, thats what makes the difference. If I have a problem with a machine that is still under warranty, I dont get some jerk on the phone asking me what I did wrong. What I do get is the Miller Welding Rep making sure my machine gets picked up and sent to the repair shop and returned to me good as new.We have heard some stories about the customer support of other welding machine companies. I have also heard that most of the big welding machine companies are stepping up to the plate now. But Miller set the bar.But I choose Miller Welding equipment. Why?

Why is it the Miller Welding Helmets seem to be more popular than the rest? Is a Miller Welding Helmet any better than other auto darkening welding helmets like SpeedGlas, Jackson, ArcOne, Optrel, and a slew of others?
It's the graphics package...
Camouflage for the outdoorsman
Skulls and Jokers for the wild bunch
Checkered flags for Nascar fans
Red, white, and blue flag graphics for Americans to show patriotism
And even a maple leaf for proud Canadians and a bunch of other choices too.
So Is that it? Is it just cool graphics that sell Miller Welding helmets? Nope. Excellent features and good marketing are what sells Miller Welding Helmets.
Miller auto darkening helmets have features that are top of the line. The Elite and Digital Elite even have what is called EMF, which detects the Electro Magnetic Field of a welding arc. In addition to having 4 independent light sensors, Miller Elite helmets detect the arc by EMF so that low amperage starts and temporary obstacles that block the sensors will not cause the lens to go light and flash the welder.
