Shoplogix Profiled in July Manufacturing & Technology Magazine by Manufacturing Journalist Thomas R. Cutler

Oakville, Ontario, Canada -- (ReleaseWire) -- 07/18/2006 -- Shoplogix develops integrated web-based software solutions that optimize plant floor operations. Shoplogix solutions improve productivity, efficiency, and total operational performance by allowing companies to make real-time decisions that impact profitability while actively engaging employees in the process.

Shoplogix Inc. is a privately held company headquartered in Oakville, Ontario, with offices across North America. The company serves a growing base of Global 2000 companies to set new standards for production performance and efficiency in industrial environments.

Real-time shop floor technology by Shoplogix is profiled by manufacturing journalist Thomas R. Cutler in the current issue of Manufacturing & Technology. According to Cutler's article, Fourmark Inc. is a contract manufacturer of custom injection molding and related services to a variety of industries including food packaging and consumer goods, cosmetics and construction. The company operates a 25,000- square-foot facility in Oakville, Ontario from which it serves markets in Canada and international customers.

Fourmark was in an enviable position; due to demands of existing and new customers, they needed to increase the number of injection molding machines in their plant to improve their capacity. But this rapid growth meant that they began to lose control of their production output. They needed a way to monitor machines on the plant floor to capture the data they needed to understand how machines were operating, and how well each shift was performing. While the company looked at monitoring solutions other companies in the industry were using, they wanted something different. According to Adam Cruikshank, president of Fourmark, "One of the biggest selling features for Plantnode was its remote access via an Internet connection. While I'm away traveling, I can still be on top of what's happening in the plant."

This lean manufacturing mechanism by Shoplogix is an intelligent embedded application that integrates with existing production equipment on the plant floor. Manufacturing gained the ability to perform multiple activities such as data capture and measurement, performance analysis, machine alerts and reporting on a machine-by-machine, job-by-job, plant-by-plant or multi-plant basis. The technology has proven effective in improving Overall Equipment Effectiveness (OEE), predictive and preventive maintenance, and quality initiatives across all industries.

Fourmark is now able to track the custom injection equipment, analyzing cycle times versus expectations. By capturing downtime information related to things like color changes and mold setups, and analyzing their scrap rates, the company has been able to identify areas for improvement. This has resulted in a reduction in mold setup times by 30%, and has increased overall plant output by 5% to 10% to date.

Plantnode's built-in intelligence goes beyond raw data collection to provide a fully integrated production and performance management application; differentiated by the ability to compare real-time data against planned estimates. Plantnode is proven to increase Overall Equipment Effectiveness (OEE) and enables machine level visibility on a 24x7 basis with automatic escalations and interactive processes to drive higher levels of operational efficiency, quality, and performance.

PLANTNODE NETWORK
Plantnode Network is an enterprise web-based software application that consolidates and analyzes operational data for all Plantnode enabled equipment providing a complete and accurate view of production performance. Plantnode Network's distributed design provides true enterprise scalability to evaluate real-time performance on a plant-wide, multi-site, or global basis.

Quality Digest Profiles Shorewood Packaging and Shoplogix

Oakville, Ontario, Canada -- (ReleaseWire) -- 06/27/2006 -- Real-time shop floor technology by Shoplogix is profiled by manufacturing journalist Thomas R. Cutler in the current issue of the online version of Quality Digest.

According to Cutler's article, At the Shorewood Packaging Midland Avenue facility in Toronto, real-time information helps yield world-class lean manufacturing results. Shorewood Packaging is part of International Paper, which has operations in more than 40 countries and sells its products in more than 120 nations. Shorewood Packaging has three plants in Ontario, Canada, and is one of the world's leading manufacturers of premium packaging.

The company could identify machines that were ahead or behind in productivity through key performance measurements, but these numbers weren't relevant to machine operators. Management needed to find a way to provide relevant information to operators and give them the ability to set efficiency goals on a per-job basis.

In an attempt to increase efficiency, Shorewood Packaging first looked for a device to identify machine status via light emitting device (LED) display marquees connected to their equipment. They implemented four test devices to see if lean manufacturing results would be possible. The company implemented a software solution by Shoplogix, with which the employees became engaged. This solution offered real-time cost and job variances on the LED display boards to help operators and management visualize and graphically understand where they were versus where they needed to be in the production process. Shorewood evaluated other solutions based on these criteria and assessed typical server-based data-collection systems. The Shoplogix software enabled a direct connection to existing production equipment and allowed the company to capture real-time machine-productivity information, quantifying improved performance and contributing directly to the bottom line.

Oakville, Ontario, Canada -- (ReleaseWire) -- 06/14/2006 -- Manufacturing journalist Thomas R. Cutler profiled real-time shop floor technology by Shoplogix in the current issue of the online version of Quality Digest.

According to Cutler's article, At the Shorewood Packaging Midland Avenue facility in Toronto, real-time information helps yield world-class lean manufacturing results. Shorewood Packaging is part of International Paper, which has operations in more than 40 countries and sells its products in more than 120 nations. Shorewood Packaging has three plants in Ontario, Canada, and is one of the world's leading manufacturers of premium packaging.

The company could identify machines that were ahead or behind in productivity through key performance measurements, but these numbers weren't relevant to machine operators. Management needed to find a way to provide relevant information to operators and give them the ability to set efficiency goals on a per-job basis.

In an attempt to increase efficiency, Shorewood Packaging first looked for a device to identify machine status via light emitting device (LED) display marquees connected to their equipment. They implemented four test devices to see if lean manufacturing results would be possible. The company implemented a software solution by Shoplogix, with which the employees became engaged. This solution offered real-time cost and job variances on the LED display boards to help operators and management visualize and graphically understand where they were versus where they needed to be in the production process. Shorewood evaluated other solutions based on these criteria and assessed typical server-based data-collection systems. The Shoplogix software enabled a direct connection to existing production equipment and allowed the company to capture real-time machine-productivity information, quantifying improved performance and contributing directly to the bottom line.

Oakville, Ontario, Canada -- (ReleaseWire) -- 06/09/2006 -- "Monitoring material consumption at the machine level in real- time, reduces the likelihood of shortages, and allows for a reduction in total carrying costs," according to President and CEO of Shoplogix, Kevin Dwyer.

Dwyer asserts, "Plantnode streamlines work-in-progress and increases efficiency because production no longer stops due to material shortages, less supervision time is required due to automated task monitoring, and total carrying costs are decreased as a result of lower levels of inventory."

Without Plantnode
• Best estimates of real-time material consumption rather than actual based on manual inputs
• Purchasing and material handling become aware of material consumption when the supervisor notices stock levels are below the 're-order point'
• Large buffers of inventory in place to minimize stock outs (ex. Increase re-order point)

RESULT:
• Greater probability of unplanned downtime and idle time from stock outs or material shortages
• Dependency on manual processes to increase reporting accuracy

With Plantnode
• Improved Workflow: Minimizes waste between stations or work cells due to better coordination of processes with a clearer understanding of pace and completion times at each independent operation.
• Accurate Production Counts due to real-time monitoring at the machine level allows tracking for 'actual' production rather than best estimates.
• Increased Machine Availability: Accurate monitoring coupled with a clear understanding of the pace of production ensures machine availability for the next stage in production.
• Increased Lead Times: Email alerts are sent to material handling and purchasing to provide advanced notice of material consumption. Reorders are just in time to reduce inventory and eliminate material shortages.
• Accurate Re-ordering: Automated notifications provide the purchasing department with specific re-order requirements and material consumption rates to increase accuracy of re-fill orders with suppliers with the ability to gauge reorders based on anticipated needs.

RESULT:
• Less Probability of Down time and Idle time: Dramatic decrease in lag time between processes for material handling, ordering, and delivery with less chance of line stoppages through email alerts and warnings generated real-time based on actual production.
• Decreased Inventory Carrying Costs due to better inventory management – reduced inventory buffers because of more accurate consumption monitoring and automatic email notifications to increase response times

Oakville, ON, Canada -- (ReleaseWire) -- 05/09/2006 -- A typical manufacturing plant floor example of such monitoring capabilities:

As the cabinet temperature reaches the Hi limit, an email notification can be sent to alert of a potentially dangerous situation. This information can help show time of day heat conditions that exist especially during hot summer months. Many maintenance related problems occur due to high temperature and humidity.

Email Notifications and alarming are key elements to real time plant floor monitoring and responsiveness. Systems must have the capacity to:

• Connect to any plant floor equipment

• Web-based reporting

• Email notifications & alarming

• Integrate with enterprise systems

• Remotely manage hundreds of machines

• Automate data entry

Alarms (LED status) and email notifications must be configurable for any real or derived signal.

Configurable notifications must be available when particular signals reach a pre-defined upper or lower limit.

Named executives must be notified when a specific machine state occurs.
