PRODUCT OF THE WEEK
Pallet Inverter Rotates Entire Pallet Loads Quickly and Safely
The PalletPal Rotator/Inverter from Southworth is the fast, safe, easy way to rotate fully loaded pallets. It is ideal for replacing broken pallets, switching to or from in-house/shipping pallets, transferring loads to slip sheets, and replacing damaged goods at the bottom of a load without the need for manual restacking.

The PalletPal Inverter can handle loads measuring up to 48"x48"x60" with capacities up to 4400 lbs. The clamping mechanism features user-adjustable pressure control to assure that lighter loads will not be crushed. Loads rotate a full 180° on a massive anti-friction turret bearing and can be stopped at any point during rotation. Southworth Products --- Read More

HOT NEW PRODUCTS - Editor's Choice
Fixture Analyzer Kit
MENTOR, OH: HID (High Intensity Discharge) lighting fixtures are known for their dependable, long life, but tens of thousands of HID fixtures have been in constant use for decades and are now beyond their useful life. EYE Lighting's new Fixture Analyzer Kit is designed for maintenance personnel to quickly identify HID fixtures that are past their useful life, thus saving time and money. Once they have exceeded their useful life, fixtures are no longer able to provide the minimum current and voltage required to properly operate lamps. In many cases, lamps will cycle on and off, or simply not start a short time after installation into these aged fixtures. Maintenance costs increase because of repeated trips to the same poles or fixtures to replace burned out lamps when the real cause of failure can be traced to the fixture. With EYE Lighting's new Fixture Analyzer Kit, the actual testing takes less than a minute. It features a Test Socket Adapter (with safety lead connectors) that screws into the fixture socket, allowing maintenance personnel to safely perform the test without reaching into the wiring box with test probes while the fixture is energized. --- EYE Lighting International of North America

Sound Level Meter Identifies Potential Source of Hearing Loss
CINCINNATI, OH: EXAIR's new Digital Sound Level Meter is an easy to use instrument that can measure and monitor the sound pressure level in a variety of industrial environments. Exposure to high noise levels for an extended period of time can lead to permanent hearing loss for workers who don't wear proper hearing protection. Companies can use the Digital Sound Level Meter to identify the source of dangerously loud noise, and then correct the problem so they can protect the workers, avoid hefty fines, and keep noise levels below the limits shown in OSHA Standard 29 CFR - 1910.95(a). Accurate and responsive, the Digital Sound Level Meter measures the decibels of the sound and displays the reading on the large LCD display that has a backlight button for easy viewing. An "F/S" response time button provides a choice of slow response measurements for comparatively stable noise measurement or fast for varying noise. --- EXAIR Corp.

INDUSTRY TRENDS
RFID Needs to Deliver Quick Return on Investment
More than half of those deploying radio frequency identification (RFID) technology expect payback in 18 months or less, according to the Annual RFID End User Survey, conducted by ABI Research of New York, N.Y. In fact, 36.7 percent of those surveyed expect to achieve return on investment (ROI) even faster, in less than 12 months. The rapid ROI numbers bode well for firms considering RFID deployments. Up until now, with few, if any, early adopters willing to share information, lack of adequate ROI data ranks third on the list of reasons for non-deployment of RFID systems.
