The Rotacaster is a sturdy, robust wheel, adaptable to a vast array of applications and it overcomes many of the limitations associated with the traditional swivel caster wheel. Applications for the Rotacaster range from material handling equipment (hand trucks, trolleys, dollies, carts, skates) to shopping carts and luggage; from conveyor transfers, pipe rollers, and other inverted applications to robotics and patient lifts in medical settings. Rotacaster Wheel Limited is an Australian company with a focus on innovative product design. Rotacaster is a patented multi-directional wheel quickly becoming the alternative to the swivel caster. Rotacaster, while fixed in a primary orientation, facilitates movement in any direction without the need of a traditional swivel mount. Omni-wheels have been used in conveyor and light-duty robotics applications for years, yet the Rotacaster multi-directional wheel is engineered to provide additional robustness, durability, and ride quality necessary as an industrial floor wheel.

Unlike many standard caster wheel products, Rotacaster provides a compact, robust, corrosion-resistant full polymer solution with extraordinary functionality. Each wheel acts independently and is not limited to a four point wheel configuration; allowing for numerous combinations to achieve load sharing and required maneuverability. Just as Kleenex is to tissue, Rotacaster is to the Omniwheel. Rotacaster Wheel Limited is an Australian company with a focus on innovative product design. Rotacaster is a patented multi-directional wheel quickly becoming the alternative to the swivel caster.

Manufactured from engineering polymers, the Rotacaster’s injection-molded, weblike structure and over-molded rollers, ensure a durable and robust wheel with no pins, inserts or seams, making it ideal for tough environments. The fixed orientation of the wheel facilitates both simple and stable mounting alternatives that improve load stability and are less prone to impact damage.

The less time spent looking up or processing data means more time improving product quality or delivery. Microsoft is the de facto leader in business productivity applications. Features from Microsoft Office that improve the user experience are built into Dynamics AX 2012. Working with data is like working in Excel, with sorting, filtering and advanced query tools to speed up decision making. The Action pane, or Ribbon as it is called in Office, enables the user to easily navigate to any related function or process. Eliminating menu searches with forward, back and history buttons, helps you find things more quickly, with fewer clicks and less pain. Contextual intelligence is provided with simple rollover of the mouse, or a single click hyperlink. Regardless of the challenges facing an ETO organization, it makes sense to simplify how the team gets work done.
