New Sets & Kits Feature
Sets or kits are multiple pieces made of corrugated and non-corrugated materials that need to be assembled, glued or fitted into a final product. Each set of materials are tracked in different locations within the Kiwiplan software.
Due to the different tracking methods, it can be difficult to make sure all these pieces are available at the assembly points of the route (aka the pack out) at the same time.
But now with Kiwiplan’s new sets screens, you can see the order status of corrugated pieces, as well as the inventory numbers of non-corrugated pieces on a single screen.
Box Plants & Sheet Feeders
For more than 40 years, Kiwiplan has been providing solutions for box plants and sheet feeders around the world with more than 500 corrugators using our solutions. As the leading provider of corrugator scheduling software, we are the only solution to provide fully automatic 24/7 scheduling.
With our innovative Continuous Automatic Scheduling Environment (CASE) solution, you can easily minimize bottlenecks and manual entry by automatically updating corrugator schedules based on product changes or delays. Our intuitive CASE solution automatically plans 90 days out every 15 minutes, continuously producing the most cost-effective schedules. It also provides comprehensive reporting for enhanced strategic planning and operational improvements.
Combined with our Roll Stock System and industry-leading Corrugator Scheduling solution, Kiwiplan provides world class automation and visibility for sheet plants and sheet feeders.
Sheet Plants
Over the past 5 years, Kiwiplan has focused on helping sheet plants overcome their biggest challenges. Our new sheet plant system provides the most accurate data collection tool available on the market.
Kiwiplan’s Machine Data Collection solution gives your operation access to real-time data to reduce downtime, identify opportunities, and drive performance – from setup start time and job finish time, to setup waste and downtime details.
Our Truck Scheduling System reduces shipping costs and puts you in the driver’s seat. Whether you ship 2 or more than 30 trucks a day, TSS automates and maximizes the efficiency of your shipping process. Our industry-leading TSS solution automatically plans loads every 15 minutes for all jobs due in the next 90 days – making sure loads are continuously optimized for space. The intuitive system provides proactive alerts as soon as shipping issues are identified, allowing you increase on-time deliveries with real-time data.
Display and Protective Packaging
What’s new with Kiwiplan? We’ve enabled advanced systems to manage your protective packaging needs, such as wood and foam converting.
Our new Purchasing and Inventory Control System, PIC, displays real-time inventory for any material in the manufacturing process, increasing visibility and streamlining processes across your organization.

Additionally, we’ve streamlined managing sets, kits, and pack-out projects. You can now view the status of the entire set, including all corrugated and non-corrugated components, on a single screen! This feature also allows you to easily create templates for scalability and share stock components for easier set creation.
