Lighter, More Compact Work Truck Air Paks Available for Preorder
Electric Mfg. LLC, a leading worldwide manufacturer of Miller® brand arc welding equipment, announced that preorders are now available for the HDI™ 265 and 325 Air Pak™, with shipping beginning in mid-Q2 2025. As the newest addition to the Miller work truck solutions portfolio, the HDI Air Pak series is the company’s first hydraulically driven all-in-one unit engineered for the work truck industry. Eliminate the need for a standalone rotary-screw compressor and engine-driven welder on your work truck and maximize your efficiency and avoid the need for extra trips.
The HDI Air Pak maximizes truck space and increases payload capacity, saving up to 400 pounds and
reducing the equipment footprint by up to 54% compared to using an engine-driven welder and a separate compressor. Additionally, each HDI Air Pak model is integrated into the truck chassis and features industry-leading advantages, including:
- Onboard compressed air: The HDI Air Pak rotary-screw compressor produces 40 or 60 cfm of air at
100% duty cycle.
- Battery charge/crank assist: Produces up to 150 amps of DC current to quickly charge 12- and 24-
volt batteries. Operators can crank assist weak batteries with up to 300 amps of power.
- Auxiliary power: A 7,000-watt generator that can handle jobsite electrical needs to power tools, lights
and more.
- Integrated multiprocess welding: Technicians are prepared for any welding job they encounter in
the field with 265 or 325 amps of output at 100% duty cycle and industry-leading weld quality,
including:
o DC stick (SMAW)
o MIG (GMAW)
o Aluminum MIG (GMAW)
o Flux-cored (FCAW)
o DC TIG (GTAW)
o Air carbon arc (CAC-A)
Additionally, Auto-Set™ technology offers preset weld settings, making weld parameter setup fast,
easy and accurate for operators of all skill levels.
- Modular remote panels: Convenient remote panels with outputs for battery charge, auxiliary power
and welding can be installed to reduce risk of slips, trips or falls and help you get the job done faster.
- Simple setup: A single, easy-to-use digital user interface for air compressor, battery charge/crank
assist and weld parameter settings saves time and helps guarantee accuracy.
- Simplified maintenance: Tool less panels allow for quick and easy access to routine service and
maintenance points.
- Data visibility: Preventative maintenance alerts help you plan necessary service time, and CAN bus
connectivity provides fleet data management insights.
- Quieter jobsite operations: Reduced sound levels help improve work environments and minimize
noise fatigue.
