OVERVIEW

Maximize Jobsite Efficiency with the Miller ArcReach Suitcase 8 Package

The Miller ArcReach Suitcase 8 Wire Feeder Package (951726001) is designed to revolutionize how industrial welding operations are conducted in the field. This comprehensive package pairs the rugged durability of the Suitcase 8 feeder with the premium performance of a Bernard BTB 300 Amp MIG gun, offering a complete solution for shipbuilders, construction crews, and heavy manufacturers. The standout feature of this system is Miller's ArcReach technology, which allows for full remote voltage and amperage control directly at the wire feeder without the need for a separate control cable. By communicating signals through the welding leads themselves, this system eliminates the clutter, expense, and maintenance headaches associated with fragile control cords.

For operators working hundreds of feet from a power source, the time savings are immense. Instead of walking back to the machine to adjust settings, welders can make precise changes right at the arc, keeping the hood down and the arc on. This package is built to withstand the harshest environments; the feeder is housed in an impact-resistant, flame-retardant polypropylene case that protects internal components from moisture, dust, and dirt. The internal circuit boards are potted and trayed, ensuring that vibration and corrosion do not compromise performance. With the included Bernard gun and AccuLock S consumables, you get a system ready to deliver high-quality welds immediately out of the box.

Key Benefits for the Jobsite:

  • Reduced Downtime: Adjust parameters at the weld joint, eliminating long walks to the power source.
  • Lower Costs: No need to purchase, repair, or maintain expensive remote control cables.
  • Enhanced Safety: Fewer cables on the ground mean fewer trip hazards for the crew.
  • Rugged Design: Built to survive drops, dragging, and exposure to the elements common in field work.

This package is an investment in productivity, allowing your team to focus on fabrication rather than equipment management. Whether you are running solid wire or flux-cored wire, the Suitcase 8 delivers consistent feeding and reliable performance shift after shift.

FAQ

ArcReach technology allows the wire feeder to communicate with the power source using the existing weld cables. This enables remote voltage and amperage control at the feeder without requiring a separate control cord.

Yes, the Suitcase 8 can operate with standard CV or CC power sources as a voltage-sensing feeder, but the remote voltage control features will not function without an ArcReach-compatible power source.

The Suitcase 8 is designed to hold an 8-inch diameter spool of wire. For 12-inch spools, the Suitcase 12 model would be required.

CLC is a feature that automatically adjusts the voltage output to account for the voltage drop that occurs over long welding cables, ensuring the arc voltage matches the set voltage.

The package includes .045 - 1/16 inch reversible dual VK knurled drive rolls, which are suitable for flux-cored and hard wires.

The included Bernard BTB gun is rated for 300 Amps at 100% duty cycle with CO2 gas. The feeder itself has a capacity of up to 330 Amps.

Yes, the Suitcase 8 is excellent for Flux-Cored (FCAW) applications and includes knurled drive rolls specifically designed for feeding cored wires.

The case is made of impact-resistant, flame-retardant polypropylene and is designed to withstand drops, dragging, and harsh industrial environments.
