SAFETY, IT'S IN YOUR HANDS

3 Ultimate Ways to
Improve Welders’
Safety
For optimal welders' safety,
eliminating hazards is key.
Here, we'll address three
common hazards faced by
welders and demonstrate
how Miller Electric's cutting-
edge technology eliminates
these hazards.
HAZARD 1

PURGING GAS
Purging stainless-steel pipes with inert gas, such as Argon,
prevents oxidation during TIG welding. However, welders are
exposed to an oxygen-deficient atmosphere and are at risk of
asphyxiation.

WHAT IF YOU CAN ELIMINATE THE USE OF


PURGING GAS, AND MINIMIZE THE
ASSOCIATED RISKS TO WELDERS?

By switching to the Miller® RMD® process, you can eliminate


purging gas and still retain corrosion resistance. Because
RMD® provides precise metal transfer, the shielding gas can
displace the atmosphere inside the pipe to prevent oxidation
during welding.
HAZARD 2

FLAME HEATING
Preheating with an open flame can result in burn injuries, fires
and explosions. Flame heating also produces high noise levels
and toxic by-products that are harmful to welders.

WHAT IF YOU CAN ELIMINATE FLAME


HEATING, AND MINIMIZE THE
ASSOCIATED RISKS TO WELDERS?

Miller Electric’s induction heating system, the Miller®


ProHeat™ 35, is a safer and faster alternative for preheating. It
eliminates the risks of working with an open flame, thereby
creating a safer work environment for welders.
HAZARD 3

SLIPS, TRIPS AND


FALLS (STF)
STF are the primary cause of workplace injuries. Welders are at
risk of STF-related injuries because they must frequently walk
back to the welding machine to make adjustments.

WHAT IF YOU CAN ELIMINATE UNNECESSARY


WALKING IN THE JOBSITE, AND MINIMIZE
THE ASSOCIATED RISKS TO WELDERS?

ArcReach® Technology by Miller Electric enables welders to


make all adjustments at the point of welding, without the use
of control cables. This improves jobsite safety and productivity
by eliminating unnecessary walking.

Employee Wellbeing Is A
Shared Responsibility

Welders face many risks daily. Besides the obvious welding-related


risks, such as exposure to the welding arc and welding fumes,
welders also encounter many hazards on the jobsite. If you want to
keep your welders safe and complete projects on schedule, reach
