LOGISTICS OLUTIONS FROM AKRO-MILS
Battery-powered pusher: NuStar Inc. has
introduced an improved Super Power Pusher
pedestrian-operated, battery-powered pusher. The Super Power Pusher is a more powerful version of the company’s standard Power
Pusher.
The Super Power Pusher is designed to allow
one person to move wheeled loads that weigh
up to 150,000 pounds up a 5-percent grade
without forklifts or other ride-on equipment.
With a footprint of less than 9 square yards,
the pusher is easy to store and move from site
to site. It recharges using a standard 110V outlet. Because it’s battery operated, it does not
require liquid fuels and
doesn’t emit any fumes.
The Super Power
Pusher has variable
speed with soft touch
control. It has automatic braking and is anti-runaway. The fully programmable control system lets users set acceleration/deceleration limits. The transaxle design lets the unit operate
smoothly on uneven surfaces, indoors or out.
Options include hitches, tow bars, strobe,
motion beeper, ergonomic handle, and push
plates. (NuStar, www.powerpusher.com)

Industrial PC: The noax C12 Industrial PC has
been completely redesigned to allow users to
specify such things as the processor and the
display as well as the RAM, interfaces, and
storage media. At the same time, the new
configuration maintains the PCs’ reputation
for ruggedness and reliability, noax says.
To enable a versatile range of applications,
noax industrial PCs feature a number of interfaces as a standard. For improved mobility, the
C12 supports the Wi-Fi standards
802.11a/b/g/n within the 2. 4 GHz and 5. 8 GHz
frequency bands. Furthermore, the new 12-
inch industrial computer gives users the option
of using mobile technology for data transfers.
The noax industrial PC has also been given
a facelift. The front now has three programmable function keys as well as an easy-to-access USB connection. The new C12 is also
smaller than its predecessors and fits more
easily into small spaces and openings.
The new C12 industrial PC is quick and easy
to install due to T-track rails and fittings that
comply with VESA 75 and 100 standards. The
C12 is fully sealed and completely protected
against dust and water in accordance with the
IP65 protection rating. The additional new features expand the options for personal cus-tomization as well as for the scope of application. (noax Technologies Corp., www.noax.com)
