You didn't even know Miller had a separate Chinese division. Ha-ha! Jon, whenever you make the mistake of bloviating about things you know nothing about, you get caught. You did it for years with CAD/CAM, and you got caught constantly. Now, talking about new developments and big companies in the welding business, you're on my turf. We publish welding articles every month, and I even have my Miler/Hobart media contact on my cell phone "favorites" list. 'Same for Lincoln Electric. With increased competition from the Chinese it's only a matter of time before Miller's Chinese division makes all the inverters for Miller. Tell that to ITW. The Chinese "division" makes low-end welders for the Asian market. They don't make welders for the U.S. Because they're not in the US market, I don't know much about them, except that Miller has announced their existence in their press information in the past. You probably know nothing about them at all, and won't, until you Google around or call Justin again. There are a boatload of Chinese welder manufacturers. Few of them have a toehold in the US, mostly at the hobbyist end of the market. Whether they make it to the quality commercial end of the market is an open issue. -- Ed Huntress |

But that may change. Regarding barges: Funny you should bring that up. Barge builders are still using transformers in a lot of cases here, but that's changing. Here's an article we publshed a few months ago about a big barge builder in St. Louis who recently switched from transformer welders to ESAB inverter machines. ESAB had some reliability problems a few years ago but this barge company, Eagle Fabrication, gave them a hell of a workout and they've held up great. They apply *miles* of weld bead to build a big one of these things. This is dual-shield welding: http://www.nxtbook.com/nxtbooks/fabs.../march2014/#/7 -- Ed Huntress |
