Command Alkon Extends Free eTicketing Essentials Offer

eTicketing Offering Supports Automated Plant, Quarry, and Jobsite Operations Through the Calendar Year

Command Alkon Extends Free eTicketing Essentials Offer

Birmingham, AL – April 30, 2020 – Command Alkon, the Leading Supplier Collaboration Platform for Construction’s Heavy Work, announces the extension of their Free eTicketing Essentials offer through the remainder of 2020 if signed-up is completed by June 30. Announced March 26, the company crafted the eTicketing offer in response to the impact of COVID-19 on construction projects. The software application removes person-to-person paper handling while helping promote social distancing practices at jobsites and in heavy material quarries and production plants; all while keeping drivers safely in the cabs of their trucks. All other terms of the Free eTicketing Essentials offer remain unchanged.

“It is critical that our support is not limited to the impact COVID-19 has on our customer’s operations now, but that we assist them as they continue to expand eTicketing initiatives once current guidelines are eased,” said Craig Tate, Chief Revenue Officer at Command Alkon. “With this extension, all who have registered online for eTicketing Essentials by June 30th will have the opportunity to continue to take advantage of the no-cost offer through the balance of the calendar year.”


With eTicketing Essentials, material tickets and eProof of Deliveries (ePODs) are exchanged via the cloud using business rules and automated workflows on Command Alkon’s many-to-many CONNEX Platform. The initial response to the offer, alongside the continued demand from across the heavy material supply chain, guided the company’s decision to extend the offer.

NEBCO is one of the first companies to leverage eTicketing Essentials in their business. “We were amazed at how quickly we had customers on board. Within a day we had five customers on, and the process was painless,” said Linda Coleman, Business Analyst at NEBCO. “This has been so exciting and easy. Every customer that I’ve spoken with so far loves it.”
Once set-up with eTicketing Essentials, material suppliers allow their buyers to connect, receive eTicket data, and digitally collaborate on projects. Inversely, buyers connect and request their suppliers share their ticket data digitally with them while providing ePODs in return.
Information to get started with Free eTicketing Essentials for materials buyers can be found here, and information for materials suppliers can be found here.

Creform stationary lineside flow rack provides for an organized flow of materials

Greer, SC—Creform Corporation, a manufacturer of unique products for material handling structures has designed and built a stationary flow rack to be used lineside for an assembly line. The flow rack can be virtually used in any industry and for most application and is particular useful holding an optimal amount of inventory at the point of assembly which maximizes floor space. It also can prevent excessive inventory which is one of the seven waste considerations in lean manufacturing. This flow rack contains an “L shaped” slide pipe and skate wheel conveyor.

Creform sales engineers worked closely with the customer to design this customized solution to meet their specific needs. The result is an optimized flow rack where parts and materials are strategically organized at the point of use. This setup enables workers to quickly locate the components they need, reducing downtime and saving time. Creform offers multiple flow lane options and can create virtually any hybrid solution.

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.
