In an effort to improve worker safety and productivity, Rotacaster announced there is 43% Less Effort in confined spaces with the Rotacaster Hand Truck. 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. 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.

Touch screen productivity ensures that engineer-to-order manufacturers are capturing labor costs accurately and efficiently. This information is another critical challenge for the ETO manufacturer, especially when labor is directly applied to a major project. This is always a challenge for manufacturing when labor represents a significant percentage of the cost of goods sold. There’s a long standing effort to capture actual labor as accurately as possible without placing an undue burden on the labor force to manually record and type in labor time.

Hybrid Mode recognizes that the ETO shop needs flexibility to employ the most efficient production modality available. Being locked into only a traditional MRP shop floor mode may limit opportunities to cut costs, reduce inventory, or streamline a production process. With Microsoft Dynamics AX 2012, the shop can optimize processes based on specific requirements, including finite capacity scheduling, lean manufacturing, and more traditional shop floor methods.

Lift'n Buddy is the revolutionary mobile lifting device that combines the best of a standard two-wheeler's durability and functionality, with automatic lifting and lowering capabilities. The Lift'n Buddy has been designed with proper ergonomics and safety in mind for any person, any moving and lifting job. These mobile lifting devices, fabricated of durable, lightweight, extruded aluminum, help companies avoid the exposure of employee injury, litigation, and workers’ compensation claims. Ranked as the nation’s leading manufacturing journalist and a contributing editor for hundreds of publications annually, Thomas R. Cutler, has been writing extensively about manufacturing and industry for more than twenty years. In the current issue of Business Excellence magazine, Cutler profiles Ergologistics makers of Lift’n Buddy.

Contextual Intelligence Critical for ETO Manufacturers According to Streamline Systems and AX 2012

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.

Information delivery needs to be timely and meaningful. There is no reason why ETO firms cannot find out immediately about a shortage, an engineering change that affects production, or even updates to company policy or news. The information should lead directly to the place where follow-up processing can happen. There is limited benefit in receiving a shortage notification in email, if one must login to another system to resolve it.

ETO organizations today are under pressure to cut costs and produce more with less. This usually means fewer available resources for the tasks required for engineering, design and production. Many resources are now cross-trained on multiple disciplines or work tasks. Certain tasks require specialized skills and applying the wrong resource to a critical task can end up costing big time if the product is wrong or needs to be reworked.

An exclusive arrangement has been formed between Rotacaster Wheel Limited and Magnus Mobility Systems Inc. Magnus is the leading, worldwide provider of motion control solutions including casters and wheels, gas springs, levelers, bearings, and accessories. Magnus combines the best of single-source convenience with the benefits of a global network. Strategic distribution and service centers enable Magnus to provide timely delivery of Rotacaster products.
