OVERVIEW

Portable Industrial Wire Feeder Package

The Miller ArcReach® SuitCase® 8 with Bernard™ Dura-Flux™ Gun Package (951728) is a premier solution for heavy industrial welding applications where portability and reliability are paramount. Designed for the harshest environments, this voltage-sensing wire feeder brings advanced control technology to the point of welding, significantly improving productivity and safety on the job site.

ArcReach® Technology

The standout feature of this system is Miller's ArcReach® technology. It allows welding operators to make voltage and amperage adjustments directly at the feeder, even when they are hundreds of feet away from the power source. This communication happens over the existing weld cables, eliminating the need for fragile and expensive remote control cords. By reducing the need to walk back to the power source, arc-on time is maximized, and trip hazards are minimized.

Built for Durability and Performance

Encased in an impact-resistant, flame-retardant polypropylene shell, the SuitCase 8 is built to withstand drops, moisture, and dirt. The internal components, including the potted and trayed printed circuit board, are shielded from contaminants, ensuring long-term reliability. The heavy-duty drive motor utilizes tachometer control to deliver precise wire feed speeds, resulting in consistent arc quality from the start of the weld to the finish.

Complete Flux-Cored Package

This package comes ready for action with the included Bernard™ Dura-Flux™ 350 amp gun, specifically designed for flux-cored arc welding (FCAW). The feeder is sized for 8-inch wire spools, making it compact enough to fit through small manholes and portholes often found in shipbuilding and construction. With features like Cable Length Compensation (CLC™) and SunVision™ digital meters, the ArcReach SuitCase 8 sets the standard for portable wire feeding performance.

FAQ

ArcReach technology allows the wire feeder to communicate with the power source using the existing weld cables, enabling remote voltage and amperage control without extra control cords.

No, when paired with an ArcReach-compatible power source, it uses the weld cables for control signals. It can also operate as a standard voltage-sensing feeder with non-ArcReach power sources.

The ArcReach SuitCase 8 is designed to hold 8-inch (203 mm) wire spools.

This package (951728) includes a Bernard™ Dura-Flux™ 350 amp flux-cored welding gun with a 15-foot cable.

Yes, the feeder supports MIG (GMAW) welding, but this specific package comes setup with a Flux-Cored gun and drive rolls. You would need a MIG gun and appropriate drive rolls for solid wire.

CLC automatically adjusts the power source voltage to compensate for voltage drops over long cable runs, ensuring the voltage at the arc matches the setting on the feeder.

Yes, the case is made of impact-resistant, flame-retardant polypropylene, designed to withstand harsh industrial environments.

The feeder is rated for up to 425 Amps at a 60% duty cycle.
