Barcode capture for material verification

Material verification with a barcode capture system is an important step in ensuring that a process runs correctly.

The code on the material is read with a barcode scanner. The data is transmitted immediately to the visualisation system, where it is analysed. The purpose of this step is:

• Ensuring that the material has been approved before processing
• Documenting a change of material in the company’s database
• Protection against manipulation as demanded by certification

In the long term, barcode capture saves time and money, as very little effort is involved in reading and reconciling the data.
