* Nail Polish Filling and Assembly - Semi- and fully automated systems.

Introducing Reditrace, an Innovative Cloud Solution for Pharmaceutical Track and Trace

TurboFil Packaging Machines, LLC and Miracom Computer Corp. have partnered to develop an integrated serialization, ePedigree and traceability solution for the pharmaceutical supply chain. Working together, TurboFil and Miracom enable pharmaceutical companies and CMO/CPO supply partners to confidently meet all track and trace regulations.

The Reditrace Clouds track and trace platform is hardware independent allowing for a choice of printer, camera and sensor. This makes it easily adaptable to an existing packaging line. The cloud based system enables an enterprise wide sharing solution with end-to-end controlled access to all data without expensive local infrastructure requirements. To prevent downtime during software upgrades or line outage, data is also stored locally prior to upload.

Pharmaceutical companies and external supply partners benefit from:

* Serial number provisioning and tracking as products are packaged and distributed
* Inventory management from packaging line to distribution
* Full capabilities for analysis and data mining

Judah Holstein, CEO of Miracom Computer Corp. commented, "This unique platform, utilizing local hardware, and cloud storage and access, minimizes total cost of ownership as well as compliance risk. Our extensive experience and impeccable track record with cloud based inventory tracking is the foundation for this innovative approach."
