MPPT for microgrid and energy storage applications
Maximum power point tracking (MPPT) is a critical technology for microgrid and energy storage applications. MPPT controllers ensure that solar panels and other renewable energy sources always operate at their maximum power output, regardless of weather conditions or load demands. This is essential for optimizing the performance of microgrids and energy storage systems, and for minimizing reliance on the grid.

One of the key benefits of MPPT for microgrid and energy storage applications is that it can help to improve system efficiency. By ensuring that renewable energy sources are operating at their maximum power output, MPPT controllers can help to reduce the amount of energy that needs to be drawn from the grid. This can lead to significant cost savings, especially for microgrid operators and energy storage owners who are on time-of-use pricing plans.

MPPT can also help to enhance the reliability of microgrids and energy storage systems. By ensuring that renewable energy sources are operating at their maximum power output, MPPT controllers can help to reduce the risk of brownouts and blackouts. This is especially important for microgrids that are isolated from the grid or that are operating in areas with unreliable grid access.

In addition, MPPT can help to prolong the lifespan of microgrid and energy storage systems. By reducing the amount of energy that needs to be drawn from the grid, MPPT can help to reduce the wear and tear on batteries and other system components. This can lead to longer system lifespans and lower maintenance costs.
Overall, MPPT is an essential technology for microgrid and energy storage applications. It can help to improve system efficiency, reliability, and lifespan.

Here are some specific examples of how MPPT is being used in microgrid and energy storage applications:
Solar microgrids: Solar microgrids use MPPT controllers to maximize solar panel power output. This helps to generate and use as much solar energy as possible to power the microgrid.
Battery energy storage systems: MPPT controllers are also used in battery energy storage systems to ensure that batteries are charged as quickly and efficiently as possible. This helps to extend the runtime of battery energy storage systems and to provide backup power during grid outages.
Hybrid microgrids: MPPT controllers are also used in hybrid microgrids, which combine renewable energy sources with traditional grid-connected power. MPPT helps to ensure that the microgrid is operating at its optimal efficiency and that it is able to meet the needs of the load.

As microgrid and energy storage technologies continue to develop, MPPT is expected to play an increasingly important role. MPPT controllers are becoming more efficient and affordable, and they are being integrated into a wider range of microgrid and energy storage products. This is making MPPT more accessible to a wider range of users and is helping to accelerate the adoption of microgrids and energy storage systems.

Richland Hills, Texas, September 12, 2024. AML, a U.S-based manufacturer of barcode data collection products, announces the launch of its latest Android® product, the StrikerX mobile computer.

StrikerX is the evolution of its predecessor, the Striker, but comes equipped with the most powerful processing architecture available for devices in its class, the Qualcomm® QCS6490 processor running Android 13 at 2.7 GHz. Building on the success of the Striker, the new StrikerX maintains the same lightweight and compact form factor but makes a quantum leap in processing power.

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.
