SOUTH PLAINFIELD, NJ (March 12 , 2018) - Seldat Technology Services (STS), a division of Seldat Distribution, Inc., introduces a Radio-Frequency Identification (RFID) solution perfected for 3PL warehouse management. STS's RFID technologies are already used globally in warehouses handling food and beverage, automotive, and consumer packaged goods.

STS's in-house team of supply chain experts analyzed the traditional problems associated with introducing RFID automation to 3PL warehouses. Challenges included incompatible hardware and software within existing operations, operational issues across all RFID products from different vendors, and interference from other tracking systems. Warehouse assets often required intensive modifications to physically and digitally accommodate RFID technologies.

Solutions based on Seldat's own 3PL operations:

  • RFID readers, scanners, gateways and other equipment entirely developed by STS
  • Middleware pre-configured and fully integrated with WMS360, STS's Warehouse Management System
  • Resilient hardware built for complex, high-volume 3PL processes and environments
  • Hardware tools that can be effortlessly retrofitted to existing equipment, i.e. forklifts, conveyor belts, and racking systems

    • Clear Benefits
    Seldat Technology Services' RFID solution boasts:

  • Automated data capture and analysis in real-time
  • Complete, accurate visibility and traceability within and beyond the warehouse
  • Real-time location and inventory management
  • Enhanced strategic planning with advanced business intelligence
  • Reduced implementation times with fewer challenges
  • 45-55% cost savings compared to related RFID implementation options in the market

    • By developing an RFID solution for the 3PL process, STS rises above the painful delays of managing the needs of different vendors, customers, and solutions providers. Chacko Verghese, SVP, Global Chief Technology Officer, remarks, "As a global leader in technology-driven supply chain solutions, we're proud to introduce an RFID solution that promotes complete visibility, traceability, and significant cost savings for Third Party Logistics providers worldwide."

    Hamilton Caster Appoints Andrew D. Stamp as Director of Sales

    Hamilton Caster & Mfg. Co., a 117-year-old industry leader in heavy-duty industrial casters, proudly announces the enhancement of its legacy Super Endurance Caster (SEC) series, now rebranded as the Spinfinity® Super Endurance Caster (ZFSEC) series. In addition, Hamilton is introducing the all-new Spinfinity® Super Endurance Dual Caster (ZFSEC2) series, both of which feature a new heavy-duty 'V-Style' seal designed to elevate performance in the most demanding environments.
    The Spinfinity® Super Endurance Caster (ZFSEC) series replaces Hamilton’s legacy SEC series, setting a new benchmark for kingpinless caster design in extra heavy-duty applications. Central to this upgrade is the heavy-duty 'V-Style' seal, which offers protection against dirt, debris, and moisture. This advanced sealing technology ensures consistent performance and extends the life of the caster, making it the ideal choice for environments where reliability is critical.
    "With the introduction of the V-Style seal, the ZFSEC series is engineered to withstand the harshest conditions while providing zero-fix, 100% maintenance-free operation," said Mark Lippert, president of Hamilton Caster. "This enhancement allows our customers to minimize maintenance costs and downtime, further solidifying Hamilton’s reputation for durability and dependability."
    The ZFSEC series retains the robust construction that Hamilton is known for, including a swivel top plate and inner raceway made from forged steel, providing superior strength for shock conditions. Sealed precision ball bearings are also now standard in all wheels, contributing to the maintenance-free performance of the series. Notably, the zerk fittings have been eliminated, as the new design makes them unnecessary.
    Complementing the ZFSEC series, Hamilton introduces the all-new Spinfinity® Super Endurance Dual Wheel Caster (ZFSEC2) series. This dual wheel series is engineered for extra heavy-duty applications where stability, durability, and maintenance-free operation are paramount. Like its counterpart, the ZFSEC2 series leverages the new 'V-Style' seal, ensuring that each caster is fully protected against contaminants that could compromise performance.
    Combined with sealed precision ball wheel bearings, this caster series ensures zero-fix, 100% maintenance-free performance. The dual-wheel configuration enhances stability and allows for a lower overall height, offering a perfect blend of strength and maneuverability.
    Casters in both series are finished in a durable HAA polyester platinum powder coat and are available in a wide variety of wheel types, allowing for customization based on application needs. For complete wheel specs and product details check out the Spinfinity® Super Endurance Caster Landing Page and all-new Spinfinity® Super Endurance Dual Caster Landing Page.

    New Horizon Releases Innovative Functionality for Optimizing Inbound Logistics Scheduling at DCs

    ACTON, Massachusetts – September 3, 2024 – New Horizon Soft, LLC (https://www.newhorizon.ai), a global leader in AI-powered supply chain planning software, announced today the release of a new version of its Buyers Workbench procurement planning software. The latest version includes the ability to optimally schedule inbound deliveries, taking into account distribution center (DC) receiving capacity, thus minimizing receiving bottlenecks and lowering inbound logistics costs. A research paper describing the innovative methodology and its deployment at an iconic $10B+ U.S. quick-service restaurant chain was recently published in the peer-reviewed academic journal, the International Journal of Operations Research and Information Systems.

    Supply chain organizations typically plan purchase orders without regard to DC receiving capacity. This leads to bottlenecks on some days and underutilized staff on others. New Horizon’s methodology, called Master Purchasing Receipt Scheduling (MPRS), uses a novel algorithm to automatically and optimally schedule deliveries. The algorithm plans deliveries at the time of purchase order creation and results in a steady volume of deliveries and lower planning and logistics costs. While first deployed at a restaurant chain, the methodology is applicable to any manufacturer, wholesaler, retailer, or foodservice company operating high-velocity DCs.
