About Miller Ingenuity '
Miller Ingenuity is a railway component solutions company based in Winona, MN. From its earliest days, more than 60 years ago, when its founder, "Rudy" Miller, invented the wick lubricator, the company has demonstrated the ability to conceptualize, design, produce and deliver railroad parts that meet the current and emerging needs of the industry. Their continued innovations in gear case seals, truck parts kits, and heavy-duty wear parts are driven by three core motivations: to take on customer challenges, to think more creatively about solutions, and, humbly, to be everyday heroes to our customers. They put these beliefs into action based on deep and "shop floor" relationships with our customers and on the ability to invent, engineer, and deliver ingenious solutions."
