In the current issue of Business Excellence magazine, leading industrial journalist, TR Cutler, profiles how the Fargo-based firm Ergologistics is committed to reducing injuries from repetitive lifting, lowering, and moving through their electric hand truck, Lift’n Buddy. Aaron Lamb created this important and cost-effective electric hand truck to drive improved safety and lower the high cost to North American businesses. The cost of back injuries alone costs millions of dollars each year. According to Lamb, “Lift'n Buddy automates those tasks, significantly reducing the potential for injuries and costly downtime.”

Daimer ships its least expensive GUM-EXTERMINATOR® steam cleaner, the 1000CVG, with enhanced heat and pressure.

Daimer.com has posted a PDF-based booklet that discusses features and product categories, and also offers buying recommendations for matching the right machine to the readers’ applications.

Daimer Industries, Inc., a portable carpet cleaner supplier known worldwide, is shipping its popular unheated XTreme Power XPC-9200 with a longer hose unit that extends the machine’s cleaning radius to 2400 feet. The longer hose measures 30 feet, or nearly 20% greater in length than the hose it replaces.

Vision-Guided Pallet Trucks change the automation paradigm according to manufacturing journalist Thomas R. Cutler in the in current issue of IFSQN, the International Food Safety Quality Network. Cutler profiles how Seegrid is taking a unique role in these technologies.

The AST machines, the Super Max 15800 AST and 15900 AST, were designed for the most demanding stationary jobs and applications.

Streamline Systems just published a vital tool for Engineer-to-Order manufacturers looking to discover how the utilize best-practices, best technologies, and a lean continued process improvement approach to their operations. The white paper is objective and looks at the history, trends, and future of ETO manufacturing. Streamline Systems is already receiving tremendous responses from Engineer-to-Order manufacturers due to the Enhanced Product Management benefits in AX2012. The Streamline Systems ETO ERP white paper may be requested at: http://www.streamlinesys.com/engineer-to-order.php.

The NSC (National Safety Council) reports that a single work-related disabling injury costs an employer an average of $48,000. The National Council on Compensation Insurance (NCCI) estimates, based on 2009 data, that medical costs comprise 58 percent of the overall costs of a lost-time claim, and that number keeps climbing. (In fact, the number has risen 11 percent in the past 20 years.) High medical and pharmaceutical costs are driving this hike, but economic conditions—including workers worried about returning to jobs with an uncertain future—are supporting these increases.

Large engineer-to-order companies often have manufacturing and sales organizations in Asia, Europe, and USA. They offer standard products but must be configured differently in each market even though the core design and definition are exactly the same. Instead of creating and maintaining the products in all three entities, with AX2012 they can maintain the core master data once, release the products to the affected entities, then configure or maintain the entity specific data. The product is defined only once at the master level, but the specific configurations or versions of the product are entity specific maintained at the company or regional level. This approach provides two key benefits of tighter control of product data while eliminating much of the redundant information.

The holiday season is fast approaching and many retailers are looking forward to brisk sales and lots of shoppers coming in to buy presents.

Seegrid CEO, Dr. Scott Friedman, recently discussed the burgeoning importance of warehouse robots, why voice-activated industrial robots will not appear, and the coming era of "twilight" factories and warehouses dominated by robots.
