Inverter technology will be the norm as transformers get phased out.*

Yeah in general (outside of the welding field which I know very little about), inverters are cheaper and they are known for switching DC from green power to AC.

I'm sure the inverter inside the Millermatic 190 is made in China to their standards.

Miller will have to keep coming up with unique engineering innovations, preferably patented, or it's all over.

Miller's inverters, including for the 190 and all others, are made by
Miller's Semiconductor Department in Appleton, WI.

Semiconductor components, as with all electronics made everywhere, are
sourced from all over the world. But the inverter assemblies are made
right here in the U.S.

You probably picked that up from one of the blog idiots. All Miller
machines made in China are sold in Asia. I'm in contact with them
every week.

Just checked with Justin in tech at Miller. The 190 is made in the USA from Chinese parts. Miller also has a Chinese division which does make the inverter power supplies in China.

To be more specific the 190 inverter power supply is assembled in the USA from Chinese parts.

Well, that's what I said, you idiot. The "Chinese parts" probably are
some of the semiconductor components.

Miller has their own department for making inverter units, right in
their Appleton plant.

An idiot is someone who has no real hands on experience and writes ad copy for a living. What Miller executives tell you is what you write just as long as Miller is advertising in the worthless, advertising based, magazine you work for.


Hey, dimwit, you just said that YOU got your information from someone
at Miller. Too bad you didn't check your facts BEFORE you made your
inaccurate claim. I guess you thought you'd get away with it again.

Is your "hands-on experience" strictly personal, or is it something
you do in groups?

I named the person I spoke with at Miller. It's not my fault you're far too stupid to call him and talk with him about Miller's Chinese division which you knew nothing idea about.

You're a blowhard and a lair with no clues. You write ad copy. You have no hands on experience doing CNC machining, CNC programming or welding in a modern CNC machining job shop.
