]]> Expanding territory, reducing vendor costs, eliminating underperforming products, layoffs and salary reductions were the cost-cutting measures most cited by Manufacturing & Technology eJournal readers in a recent online poll (see our August 3, 2009 post). Surprisingly, innovation didn’t make the list. At DJ Products we’ve had marked success in finding new applications for our ergonomically-designed material handling products and redesigning existing products to meet the specific needs of new applications. A case in point is the new line of Lindy’s Aircraft Tugs and Tractors manufactured by DJ Products’ subsidiary Lindbergh Aircraft Tug Co.

As the world leader in the manufacture of battery-powered, walk-behind carts and tow tugs, we saw an opportunity to apply current technology to a new problem. Working with Fortune 500 companies including Exxon Mobil, GM, GE, Ford, Cardinal Health, Home Depot, Wal-Mart, P&G, Boeing, Pfizer and Caterpillar, our engineers have successfully adapted our CartCaddy products to numerous unique applications to meet our customers’ specific requirements. Drawing on years of experience developing and manufacturing thousands of powered carts, equipment and tow tugs, our engineers applied their expertise to the problem of safely towing aircraft through crowded hangers, busy airports or FBOs. Our ergonomically-designed CartCaddy tugs proved perfectly adaptable to this new application and the Lindbergh Aircraft Tug Co. was born.

Named for famed aviator Charles Lindbergh, who made the first non-stop solo flight from New York to Paris, Lindbergh Aircraft Tug Co. is located in Little Falls, Minnesota, “Lucky Lindy’s” childhood home, where three AircraftCaddys are manufactured:
