Kinedyne Releases 50th-Anniversary Catalog

Kinedyne Releases 50th-Anniversary Catalog

Kinedyne celebrates 50 years of cargo control excellence with commemorative catalog and video highlighting products that deliver better cargo securement, greater cargo capacity and faster cargo access.

BRANCHBURG, N.J., USA — Kinedyne LLC, a world-leading designer, manufacturer and distributor of cargo control technologies, including cargo securement, capacity and access solutions for the transportation industry, announced the release of its expansive new 50th-anniversary-themed 2018 catalog and video, which are both available on Kinedyne's website. The catalog features 83 new products, several new product categories and more than 800 total SKUs.

The catalog and video both recount Kinedyne's historical progress over its 50-year history and highlight the company's product innovation over its five decades of serving the cargo control needs of commercial and military customers. The company has also used the occasion of its 50th anniversary as a catalyst to formulate new mission, vision and values statements, to set the tone for its future focus.

Since its last product catalog was released, Kinedyne has expanded its leadership role as "The Cargo Control People!" transcending its traditional role as a preeminent supplier of cargo securement and cargo capacity products, to include innovative cargo access solutions as well. With the introduction of its revolutionary new Kin-Slider and Kin-Sider curtain-side cargo access system, load-rated curtain-side access system and new aerial access sliding roof system, Kinedyne is uniquely positioned to take advantage of market segment growth, particularly in the area of eCommerce and last-mile delivery.

"Over the last 50 years, Kinedyne has set the pace with innovative products that have helped the industries we serve become safer while making it possible to achieve higher levels of overall supply chain productivity," Dan Schlotterbeck, president of Kinedyne LLC, said. "The new products and themes represented in our 50th-anniversary catalog capture our sense of excitement as we transition from celebrating our remarkable history to creating a dynamic new future of cargo management technology."

Innovative new catalog additions include RHINO MAX brand of winch straps and ratchet straps that upgrade Kinedyne's award-winning abrasion-resistant Rhino Web line, giving RHINO MAX straps a higher working load limit. RHINO MAX load securement straps are treated with the same award-winning abrasion-resistant chemical coating that made Rhino Web a favorite of fleets and owner-operators looking for a strap capable of standing up to heavy-duty environments.

The K-FORCE brand of winch, ratchet and logistics straps is a completely new offering from Kinedyne. Like the RHINO MAX straps, the new K-FORCE straps are engineered to manage heavier loads with more polyester material in the body of the strap than Kinedyne's standard webbing.

Other newcomers to the catalog include:
The patented Ease-Z Winch Bar that rotates 360 degrees for leverage and to accommodate various clearance requirements
THE E-HOOK brand storage system that reduces freight damage, increases revenue and turns empty wall space into usable storage areas and is patented
VeeBoards, BrickGuards and the patented VeeBoards2Go Brand Corner Protectors that evenly distribute the mechanical force exerted by load securement straps and other tie-down assemblies, and help maintain the structural integrity of stacked cargo
Kinedyne has also added new upgrades, new features and expanded lines of traditional product favorites including, Kaptive Beam Double Decking Systems, Rubber-Coated Steel Corner Protectors, Retract-A-Bar hybrid jack bar and load lock, Trailer Door Safety Straps, Heavy-Duty Strap Bands, Heavy-Duty D-Rings, Lever Binder Locks, Grip Link Tire Chains and Reflective Conspicuity Flags.

"We've grown and refined our offerings in virtually all of our conventional product categories, including flatbed, interior van, webbing, hardware and tire chains," Schlotterbeck said. "Kinedyne's recent expansion into curtain-side cargo access technology is complementary to our reputation as 'The Cargo Control People!' and ushers in a new era of service to our industry."

The new catalog provides content in three languages, includes a comprehensive parts index, features color-coded section identification and is three-hole drilled for compatibility with standard catalog racks. Kinedyne's 50th-anniversary-themed 2018 Catalog is available now for viewing on Kinedyne's website and can be ordered through your Kinedyne representative or by calling Kinedyne's customer service department at 800.848.6057 in the U.S., 800.268.3530 in Canada and 011.5255.53184844 in Mexico.

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.
