NASHVILLE, Tenn. (Aug. 14, 2018)—Hunter Industrial, the industrial division of Hunter Fan Company, has become the exclusive high-volume, low-speed (HVLS) fan partner for Chicago-based fan distributor R. Williamson & Associates. Hunter Industrial's Titan, ECO and XP series fans are now available for purchase through the company.

"The R. Williamson & Associates and Hunter brands both share a more than century-old legacy of quality, integrity and top-level customer service," Jeff Chastain, senior vice president and general manager of Hunter Industrial. "While our industrial division is newer, it holds to Hunter's same principles, and R. Williamson & Associates will be a valuable partner as we strengthen our offerings and reach in this area."

Hunter Industrial Fans was launched in 2016 with its debut product, the Titan series HVLS fan. With blade spans ranging from 14 feet to 24 feet, this HVLS fan offers a competitive edge when it comes to efficiency (consuming 50 percent less energy than other HVLS manufacturers), installation cost, weight and maintenance. Using less energy, the Titan efficiently delivers equal or better output than the competition. The company's second product, the ECO series fan, is among the most lightweight and economical industrial fans on the market. The ECO fans range in diameter from 8 feet to 24 feet. The XP series fan is the company's newest fan and is engineered to deliver year-round HVAC cost savings and the easiest installation features on the market to date. This new HVLS solution delivers a highly efficient performance with a featherweight design and includes a uniquely streamlined plug-n-play, pre-assembled installation process that does not require any guy wires.

Hunter Industrial's Titan and ECO fans offer a full range of control options, including a standard 1:1 analog control and touchscreen controls that can control up to 30 fans. The XP series fan is equipped with a standard 1:1 analog control.

"We are excited to partner with the biggest name in the ceiling fan industry and are confident that through this partnership we can establish Hunter as the same household name in the industrial marketplace. We look forward to a long and prosperous relationship that promises significant growth for both our companies and our customers," said Scott Williamson, CEO of R. Williamson & Associates.

R. Williamson & Associates opened its doors in 1882 in Chicago, Ill. For more than 125 years, the company has supplied the industry with high-quality commercial and industrial air moving equipment. Whether companies need to clean up, cool off, exhaust or pressurize their buildings or processes, R. Williamson & Associates provides the largest selection of air moving equipment available--including industrial fans, commercial fans, general ventilation fans, process fans, exhaust fans, intake fans, ceiling fans, OEM and engineered systems. The company offers a complete selection of make-up air equipment, air curtain systems, air cleaning equipment, industrial heating equipment, distribution and process ductwork and filters.

Hamilton Caster Appoints Andrew D. Stamp as Director of Sales

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.
