Lattice3D Technology Implemented at Kito Corporation

Hoist and Crane Manufacturer Shares Complex 3D Data Through All Facilities

Los Altos, CA. May 11, 2004 - Lattice3D�, a leader in enterprise-wide use of 3D data, today announced that Kito Corporation has implemented Lattice3D as its corporate standard for publishing and sharing CAD data among all facilities.

Kito Corporation is a global supplier of hoists and crane end carriages with annual revenues in excess of $180 million. The company, headquartered in Japan, has sales, engineering and manufacturing operations in 45 countries across 4 continents. Kito hoist and crane equipment is used worldwide for durable, reliable and safe material handling.

The Lattice3D technology gives Kito easy-to-use software that compresses large CAD data models and assemblies in a loss-less format. This allows immediate distribution of very complex 3D models throughout all Kito facilities, which can be instantly published to web and PDF formats for training and instruction manuals. The XVL�-based technology was first tested in Kitos Japan facilities and has now been adopted in its United States operations.
�Lattice3D has allowed us the flexibility to work within our chosen CAD and design platforms and then publish the design data created without concern about proprietary formats or extra CAD seats,� stated Toshihiro Fukatsu, Machining Manager, Kito Corporation. �With Lattice3D we are seeing true return on investment and measurable performance improvements something we value in our globally distributed operation.�

Lattice3Ds award-winning XVL-based technologies are used by major automotive, manufacturing, architecture and aerospace companies worldwide to take data directly from engineering and convert and compress 3D images into an XVL file. Data can now easily be used in multiple business operations including sales and marketing, customer service, technical publications, technical illustrations, procurement, and training. XVL has streamlined the compression of very large data and the usage of computer memory so that end-users are able to use models that were originally 50-250 times larger, without loss of detail. The Lattice3D applications include the ability to produce user manuals, documentation, parts lists, assembly instructions and more in almost any format including Microsoft Office�, Adobe PDF�, Internet formats and html.
