Miller Fabrication Solutions

What Miller Fabrication Solutions does

Miller Fabrication Solutions is a family-owned, third-generation contract metal fabricator headquartered in Brookville, Pennsylvania, founded in 1963 and operating four plants totaling approximately 675,000 square feet with roughly 400 employees. The company delivers end-to-end metal parts and assemblies for heavy-equipment OEMs across eight vertical segments: construction and forestry, engine and turbine, mining and oil and gas, material handling, industrial machinery, agriculture, transportation, and valve and hose. Core manufacturing capabilities include industrial fabrication (plasma and fiber laser cutting, heavy forming up to 72,000 lbs), robotic and manual welding (up to 20-ton capacity), CNC machining (up to 20 tons, tolerances within 0.001 inches), automated powder coating via Nordson ColorMax systems, and mechanical assembly. The capital base includes a TRUMPF TruLaser Center 7030 with STOPA automated storage, Wolf/ABB and Vectis/Universal Robots welding cells, and a broad CNC fleet (Nidec, DMG Mori, Toyoda, Mazak, Haas, Niigata).

Miller operates on a project-based, quote-driven business model with revenue generated through contract fabrication services and value-added solutions (Value Analysis/Value Engineering, logistics optimization, capacity management, on-time production scheduling, and inventory/VMI programs). Go-to-market is direct enterprise field sales to OEMs via RFQ/RFP and consultation-based engagement; the company holds ISO 9001:2015, 14001:2015, and 45001:2018 certifications and has appeared on The FABRICATOR's FAB 40 list for eight consecutive years (#21 in 2024). Anchor customers include Volvo Construction Equipment (preferred supplier) and Hanco Ltd. (59+ year partner), with additional relationships across IRTC and Tirx Moto. The 2023 acquisition of MGK Technologies and ongoing capacity buildout (Pine Creek facility unveiled in 2025) reflect an inorganic-plus-organic growth posture under President Eric D. Miller.
