Track, Trace and Control Middleware
Microscan and our Partner Cogiscan Lead Track, Trace and Control Technology
To survive and prosper in today's economy, leading manufacturers must assemble high quality products at the lowest possible cost. The total cost of production must take into account the complete product lifecycle including warranty, recalls and repairs.
This is a general demonstration of Microscan's
Track Trace and Control hardware and software. We setup a
fictitious
assembly operation to track cameras through final assembly
and
inspection. This TTC system can be applied to any discrete
manufacturing operation.
Trace, Trace and Control (TTC) systems are an essential element of
success in achieving these strategic objectives. These systems are
designed to achieve optimal use of materials and resources throughout
the manufacting process.
First, a TTC system provides real-time visibility of all
work-in-progress (WIP) and materials on the factory floor. Second, a
TTC system eliminates the risk of human errors associated with material
handling and equipment setup. Finally, a TTC system provides a complete
history of the product lifecycle to enable precise troubleshooting and
to minimize the number of products that need to be returned if a recall
occurs.
Microscan, along with our partner Cogiscan, now offer
complete Track, Trace and Control Solutions
utilizing state of the art Track,
Trace and Control Middleware.
