Miller Arcreach Suitcase 12 W/Flux Cored Gun (951731)

The Miller ArcReach Suitcase 12 is a wire feeder, not a power source, built so the operator can change output voltage from a dial at the feeder instead of walking back to the machine. It works with any ArcReach-equipped power source for the full benefit, though it still runs with non-ArcReach equipment at reduced functionality.

Feeding wire without surprises

Electronic wire feed speed runs 50 to 780 inches per minute with a feedback tachometer holding it steady, and digital meters with SunVision technology stay readable in direct sun. The feeder can take a wire change with the unit standing upright, a gun-locking tab keeps the gun from pulling loose mid-job, and the recessed gas inlet on the back stays clear of cables.

Capacity and included gun

• Handles solid wire on the thin end and steps up to .030-5/64″ flux-cored wire
• Spool capacity: up to a 12″ or 45 lb spool
• Duty cycle: 60% at 425A
• Dimensions: 15.5″H by 9″W by 21″D, 35 lbs

It ships with the 15-foot Bernard flux-cored gun already matched to the feeder, three .045″ and two .052″ Centerfire contact tips, plus drive rolls sized to .068 and .072-5/64″ wire with a V-knurled grip, guides already installed, ready for flux-cored wire out of the box. It runs on 14-48 VDC from the power source, single phase, and is built for Career Welder-level work; a manufacturer's warranty is included. A dual-schedule switch is available separately if a job needs two stored settings.

Does it need an ArcReach power source to work? It will run with standard equipment, but the voltage-at-the-feeder control only works paired with an ArcReach power source. Can the wire be changed without lowering the feeder? Yes, the drive system is designed to allow a wire change with the feeder upright.
