Alfa Laval's global service network and 360° Service Portfolio

Extend your equipment's performance and stay ahead of the competition with Alfa Laval's global service network and 360° Service Portfolio
Maintaining the edge over competitors is never easy. Operations must be continually improved, and production capabilities optimised. At Alfa Laval we understand these demands, and the requirement that your equipment performs at its best throughout its lifetime. We help keep you competitive by minimizing costs and maximising the return on your equipment investment. Our global service network and 360° Service Portfolio support your operations at all times, stopping problems before they occur.
Correct maintenance is crucial
Extending the performance of your equipment relies on the correct maintenance procedures being observed. Magnus Christersson, Division Manager at Service Nordic, Alfa Laval explains, "performing regular maintenance on your equipment is key to reducing costs and securing uptime in production." Alfa Laval's global service network is driven by customer needs, dedicated to securing production uptime, being readily available, providing quality service and optimization to ensure your peace of mind.
Uptime
Proper service, performed at the right time, saves you money and prevents unplanned interruptions. The experts of our network have the skills, experience and procedures to spot problems before they occur.
Availability
Wherever your operations are, our network is there. You have easy access to expert support from responsive people who care about your equipment and process performance. The same is true when it comes to parts. Alfa Laval's dedicated team gets the right parts to where you need them - in the right number and in as little time as possible. Christersson continues, "we deliver on the availability of our field service engineers and technical salespeople. We understand your need for a speedy response when it comes to your production and try to respond to all requests within one day."
Quality
To safeguard the quality of your operations, only genuine Alfa Laval spare parts are used, which are designed for your equipment and manufactured for safe, reliable performance. "Our quality relates to anything from spare parts, to the quality of our field service engineers, who are not only fully qualified, but are part of our global network within Alfa Laval, serving your needs wherever you are," says Christersson.

Alfa Laval 360° Service Portfolio
We partner with you all the way - from start-up, maintenance and support, to improvements and monitoring services. We have all the parts and services to ensure your equipment performs to the level it was designed to - both now and in the future.
Start-up
We bring your equipment into operation smoothly and safely, while respecting global guidelines. We ensure your equipment delivers as it is meant to from the get-go.
Maintenance
With proper maintenance at the right time, you can achieve higher performance and lower operating costs while maximizing your equipment's lifetime.
Support
Assistance is always on hand. Many issues can be solved directly over the phone, and experienced troubleshooting specialists can be dispatched to your site when needed.
Monitoring
Stopping problems before they occur saves time and money. Inspections and audits - or even continuous monitoring - can keep you informed of any performance changes.
Improvements
Performance can be taken to the next level to better match your evolving needs. We can improve your equipment, letting you take advantage of the latest technical developments.
Preventive maintenance - prevent problems before they occur
By servicing your equipment only when necessary, you can ensure operational reliability and maintain performance. Preventive maintenance reduces unplanned stops, increases equipment lifetime and reduces workplace accidents. It also enables you to make the best use of resources and reduce spare parts stock.
Preventive maintenance is performed as a stand-alone service when your equipment has been in operation for a certain number of hours, and at a fixed interval to avoid unplanned stops. The service can also be part of a Performance Agreement. Our experts analyze your operating conditions, determine accurate maintenance intervals based on various factors, including type of application as well as the usage and condition of the equipment, supply genuine spare parts, and perform maintenance on board, on site or in one of the Alfa Laval Service Centres located close to you.

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.
