How Komatsu Cut Weld Time by 50% Using SubArc Hercules™

Описание: Komatsu’s Longview, Texas operation builds some of the largest front-end loaders in the world and their welding requirements are among the toughest in heavy equipment fabrication. This case study shows how the team evaluated and adopted Miller SubArc Hercules with Hobart SubCOR metal-cored wire to increase throughput without compromising mechanical properties or weld quality.

What you’ll see:
• Reduction in weld time
• Higher deposition rates
• No negative impact on quality
• A smooth transition for welders and operators

Who it’s for: Welding leaders in heavy fabrication and large components who need more throughput without increasing complexity.
