Integration of Intel® RealSense™ Depth Camera D415 into MobileDemand's Family of Rugged Tablets Drives Breakthrough for Transportation, Logistics, Shipping Industries and More


Hiawatha, Iowa - MobileDemand has introduced an industry-first, mobile dimensioning system across the MobileDemand rugged tablet product line. By integrating the Intel® RealSenseTM Depth Camera D415 with MobileDemand's Family of Rugged Tablets, MobileDemand can now provide businesses in the transportation, supply chain management, logistics, shipping, warehouse industries and more with the ability to quickly, automatically, and accurately acquire dimensions, and calculate volumes and dimensional weights of boxes and pallets.

By combining MobileDemand's Rugged Tablets with the latest generation of Intel® RealSense™ Depth Cameras, customers can maintain their mobility and scan boxes and pallets anywhere, doing away with the need to transport boxes and pallets to a fixed-location dimensioning platform. Using this mobile system will simplify operations, reduce costs, and save time and money. Customers can scan boxes and pallets quickly and wherever their packages are, while ensuring their measurements are accurate. All of this translates into cost savings and increased ROI for MobileDemand customers.

While 3D cameras are not new to the industries we work with, the ability to be mobile with the cameras is. Fixed-location cameras limit when, where, and how the camera can be used. MobileDemand Rugged Tablets can go anywhere; and because MobileDemand Rugged Tablets are Windows®-based, our customers can use the software of their choice to complete their volume-dimensioning needs. Once a box or pallet has been scanned, the measurements can be automatically entered into the customer's software application, and dimensional weight will be calculated.

MobileDemand will support the use of Intel® RealSense™ Depth Camera D415 across our product line. We offer a variety of tablets to meet our various customers' needs. The MobileDemand Family of Rugged Tablets includes small, mid-sized and larger screen sizes. MobileDemand products also offer a broad array of price points, features and functionality. MobileDemand will help you find the right tablet for the job.

Combining MobileDemand's rugged tablets with the latest generation of Intel® RealSense™ Depth Cameras will impact the way work is done throughout the supply chain and will translate into cost savings and increased ROI for users.

MobileDemand Rugged Tablets are engineered specifically for the mobile workforce and for anyone who has a need for increased productivity, safety and security.

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.
