Revolutionizing Supply Chains: The Impact of IoT on Connected Logistics

Connected logistics leverages IoT technologies, cloud sensor technology, and remote management to address rising fuel costs, environmental concerns, and supply chain efficiency.

Revolutionizing Supply Chains: The Impact of IoT on Connected Logistics

The global Connected Logistics Market exhibited significant strength in 2020 and is projected to maintain a steady upward revenue growth rate. The Bluetooth sensor and button segments are poised for the most substantial growth, offering lucrative opportunities for industry participants. Connected Logistics encompasses a set of interrelated communication devices, linkages, and Internet of Things (IoT) technologies that enhance crucial logistics processes by transforming them into more personalized operations. This involves the sharing of data, information, and facts with supply chain partners. The connected logistics market is still in its nascent stage and can be defined as a network of interconnected devices used by logistics and IoT solution providers to gain visibility into warehouse, shipping, and associated logistics processes, such as order fulfillment, financial transactions, and shipping. It aids in making more efficient business decisions by identifying critical bottlenecks, facilitating vital decision-making.

Logistics connectivity is gaining traction in both developed and developing regions due to technological innovations in product delivery, increased adoption of Logistics 4.0, growth related to Data and Analytics, cloud technology, a rising demand for connected devices, and expanding application areas among end users. Additionally, factors like IoT-related growth, increasing mobile demand, greater internet penetration, and the abundance of smart devices are expected to offer numerous growth opportunities. Nevertheless, the challenge of implementing connected logistics is anticipated to hinder market growth during the forecast period. Currently, the Sensor Node Segment dominates the Global Connected Logistics Market.

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.

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.
