Cimcorp Launches CVision Assisted Reality Glasses for Real-time Automation Support

GRIMSBY, Ontario—April 20, 2023—Cimcorp, a pioneer of intralogistics automation, specialized in fresh food handling and tire-handling solutions, announces a new addition to its Success Services after-sales service range: CVision Assisted Reality-glasses. A major advancement in the field of automation support, CVision AR-glasses enable Cimcorp's Success Services team to assist customers in real-time, without the need to travel or arrange on-site meetings. Backed by anytime, anywhere support from Cimcorp experts, customers can minimize unplanned downtime and maximize the performance of their automated intralogistics solutions.

Intuitive and easy to use, the hands-free CVision AR-glasses power bidirectional communication between the Cimcorp customer and System Support. Cimcorp’s experts can see the problem firsthand through a live video feed from the customer’s site—minimizing the risk of misunderstanding and making it easier for the Cimcorper to grasp and efficiently solve the issue. The Cimcorper can also add hand-drawn marks to the image to provide further instructions or clarification. This reciprocal transmission of information allows for high-quality and rapid support, ultimately increasing the overall quality of customer service provided by Cimcorp.


Key features of Cimcorp CVision AR-glasses include:

● Language translation: The glasses can translate more than 100 languages, which breaks down language barriers for improved communication.
● Noise-canceling technology: Controlled by voice command, the glasses are easy to use in industrial environments thanks to effective noise-canceling technology and high impact resistance.
● Heat camera: The glasses can be upgraded with an add-on heat camera to identify problems that may not be visible to the human eye. This heat camera increases the first-time-fix rate, saving time and resources for both the customer and Cimcorp.
● Image annotation: The Cimcorper can provide further instructions or clarification via hand-drawn marks on the image feed.

“At Cimcorp, we’re committed to building lifelong partnerships with our clients. And at the core of those relationships is the peace of mind we offer through 24/7 customer support,” said Nicole La Duke, Customer Support Manager, Cimcorp Automation, Ltd. “Thanks to our CVision AR-glasses, our experts now have a faster, more efficient way to communicate with clients and resolve any issues. We’re proud to be pioneering new automation support technologies, and we will continue to develop innovative ways to help our clients maximize the longevity of their automated solutions for years to come.”

CVision technology from Realwear is based on communication by Cisco, a leading networking company. The connection is secure and provides a safe platform for conversation, which is a requirement in the warehousing and grocery retail industries.

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.
