Component marking for identification and traceability
A clear identification and a gapless traceability through contact-free coding and marking (DPM – Direct Part Marking) is essential within the automotive industry. Automated readable codes are applicated directly on the part or component. They allow for product traceability up to the production site as well as a process analysis. Thanks to the gained data, at the same time errors can be avoided, efficiency can be improved, output can be increased and costs can be decreased within modern logistic processes.
Applications
Areas of service application
- Contact-free direct part marking (DPM) via ink and laser.
- Automated manufacturing and assembly processes.
- Traceability and limitation of defective batches.
- Reject avoidance.
- Counterfeit protection.
- Reducing of failure costs in the warehouse and in the field.
- Realization of customer requirements (e.g. standards of automobile manufacturers).
