I have my welding apprenticeship started,
i'm halfway through my machinist apprenticeship.
I'm a fairly accomplished mechanic though not in an apprenticeship.
if i complete all three apprenticeships does that automatically get me a journeymen millright ticket?

No, you may be able to challenge the exam but you will still have to take it.

why wouldnt you just for your millwright ticket/ instead of 3 different ones?

I was always looking to get my welder and machinist ticket, but if completing a mechanics apprenticeship gets me 2 tickets then i'd consider it. if it doesn't then i'll be happy as just a welder/machinist.

The answer to your question is NO

No you only can challenge the first year exam and hrs. There is quite a bit of hydraulics, instrumentation etc..

welding and machining are closely related to what i do in my spare time anyways. and thus the knowledge i'm looking for. being a millright would have been just to be able to find more work.

get as many tickets under your belt as poss. millwright is more relative to Setting up machinery/hydraullics. You will have to apprentice as a millwright to challenge the course i think. Since you're doing machining, your first, and maybe 2nd year crossover...i know for sure that 1st year millwright/machinist is the same thing. You should look into that the next time you go to sait.
