MIKE NOVAK of
ITW - MILLER
"Induction Heating, and Weld Cable Control"
Mike Novak began his career with Miller in 2004, but has worked in welding since high school when he worked as a fitter/welder. He holds a Bachelor of Science in Welding Engineering from Ohio State University and also is an AWS Certified Weld Supervisor. Mike has over 25 years of industrial welding experience from his work as a Technical Sales Representative, Field Engineer, Process Trainer and District Sales Manager. Mike primarily worked with commercial, military and ship repair facilities. He has assisted the maritime industry with procedure and process development, weld quality improvement and process training. Mike's areas of service and support for the Shipbuilding and Marine Fabrication Industry are primarily the east and west coasts of the US and Canada.
Powering A Heating Revolution
Induction heat systems solve ongoing preheating and stress relieving problems.

Compared to flame or resistance heating, Miller's unique Induction Heating technology can save hundreds or thousands of dollars per week. Induction heating brings a part to temperature in a fraction of the time and holds the part at specified temperature.
"    Induction heating does not require the significant expense of fuel gases.
"    Induction heating produces fewer fumes than flame heating.
"    Induction heating produces less particulate from overheated insulation caused by high temperature electrical wires and ceramic pads.
"    Induction heating does not produce the exposure to burns associated with open flames and electrical resistance wires ( only the work part becomes hot ).

Weld Cable Control (WCC)
New Remote Voltage Control Technology Improves Productivity, Parameter Settings and Safety for Shipbuilding and Construction Industries.

"    Improves productivity. Adjusting voltage at the point of use reduces the need to leave the work area and travel back to the power source.
"    Allows welders to easily set optimal voltage at the work station-improving quality control.
"    Eliminates safety and wear/damage problems associated with the control cable.
