Miller Introduces

Millermatic Mig Welders

Halter International, Inc., New Orleans, re- cently signed an agreement with the Trinity

Marine Group, Gulfport, Miss., for the construc- tion of Halter Combo Series of multipurpose emergency response vessels designed by Harold

P. Halter. Halter International's chairman and

CEO, John R. Glas, and John Dane III, presi- dent of the Trinity Marine Group, completed the agreement at Halter corporate headquarters des- ignating Trinity as the official contractor of the

Combo Series.

The Combo vessels, constructed of aluminum in designs from 30 to 220 feet, are part of an emerging industry developing as a result of the

Oil Pollution Act of 1990. This legislation pro- vides the guidelines for state and local govern- ments, as well as oil and shipping companies, to maintain a state of readiness in the event of an oil spill. Halter International responded to the OPA 90 by producing a series of vessels whose multi- tude of uses make them efficient and effective in both oil recovery and fire fighting, as well as economical to operate. "We've combined the most technologically ad- vanced and effective equipment known today with one of the most powerful designs ever inte- grated into a multipurpose vessel," said Mr.

Halter, president of Halter International.

The Trinity Marine Group, owned by Trinity

Industries, Inc., Dallas, Texas, operates yards in

Louisiana, Mississippi, Texas and Pennsylvania.

The four new Millermatic welding machines from Miller Electric Mfg.

Four all-in-one Millermatic MIG (GMAW) welding machines were recently introduced by from Miller Electric Mfg. Co., Appleton, Wis. The welding machines range from 250 amp indus- trial models to units designed for repair and maintenance welding.

The Millermatic 250 and 250MP are single- phase, industrial class models and offer 250 amps of DC weld output at 40 percent duty cycle, 200 amps at 60 percent duty cycle. Both feature infinite voltage, exact wire speed and easily ad- justable panel controls.

The Millermatic 120 provides 120 amps at 30 percent duty cycle. Excellent performance on thinner metals and good arc characteristics throughout the amperage range make it well- suited for shop work, boat yards, and light fabri- cation. The MM 120 handles both gasless and solid welding wire in a variety of sizes.

The 115-volt Millermatic 90 also runs several wire sizes. This model supplies 90 amps at 20 percent duty cycle and is a good choice for repair shops, boat yards, and light maintenance duty.

Millermatic welding machines,
