Track & trace in the manufacturing industry
Trace raw materials and products in production
Product traceabilityWith traceability of raw materials and products, companies can follow the entire production chain. This provides insight into origin and quality and helps with compliance with regulations. The need for traceability is growing due to stricter laws and more focus on safety. In sectors such as food and pharmaceuticals, it offers significant benefits. For traceability, MyPlantFloor uses integrated inventory management.
Benefits of a good traceability system
The importance of traceability in production
Improvement of quality control
Traceability makes quality control easier. Deviations are detected and corrected more quickly, which reduces waste and optimizes production processes.
More efficient recall management
A good traceability system enables fast and targeted recalls. Companies can quickly identify the products involved, limit losses and prevent damage to their reputation.
Compliance with regulations
Many sectors (such as food and pharmaceuticals) have strict rules. Traceability helps companies demonstrate that they comply with legislation and certifications, which prevents legal problems and strengthens customer confidence.
Preventing forgery and fraud
Counterfeit products are a risk. Manufacturers can guarantee the origin with unique identification, such as QR codes. This prevents fraud and protects brand reputation.
Traceability of raw materials in the food and pharmaceutical industries
Traceability registration via mobile app
Upon receipt, raw materials are assigned a unique number per container/pallet via barcode labeling and stored at a location. The unique number links to the product, supplier and any product-specific data such as: best-before date, viscosity, batch code, production date, carrier, etc.
The need for traceability can be determined for each line in the Bill of Material (BOM). In the case of mandatory traceability, the operator scans the container ID of the material using the mobile app. The system immediately checks whether the material meets the product and production requirements.
This creates a comprehensive administration of all products for track & trace and associated important information that is also easily accessible.
Trace raw materials and products directly in the event of product recalls
Traceability offers enormous efficiency in a recall.
With the push of a button, you can immediately see which raw materials have been used in which products, including all historical data. In addition, it is always easy to find out in detail which raw materials certain products consist of or have consisted of.
Traceability with MyPlantFloor not only accelerates the recall of potentially contaminated or defective products, but also prevents unnecessary recalls through early problem detection. Thanks to the track & trace of raw materials and products, manufacturers can respond quickly and accurately, guaranteeing consumer safety and limiting production losses.
