AIDC · Automatic Identification & Data Capture

Make every unit identifiable and auditable.

We design barcode, QR, and RFID systems that give you practical serialization and traceability— from component to finished product to dispatch—without adding noise to day‑to‑day work.

Lifecycle tracking example

A simple view of how identifiers follow a product through its lifecycle. Layout and values are illustrative.

Component

Vendor label or in‑house code is scanned and mapped to your internal ID, lot, and GTIN.

Product

As assemblies are built, each product gets a serial or batch barcode that carries key data forward.

Dispatch

Cases and pallets get shipping labels with the right GTIN, quantities, and routing data. A scan ties shipments back to items.

Capabilities

What AIDC adds to your operations

Practical identification systems that use barcode, QR, and RFID to keep track of what’s where—without slowing your team down.

Barcode & QR systems
Clear, scannable codes on parts, products, and logistics units.
RFID where it makes sense
Tags for scenarios where line‑of‑sight scanning isn’t enough.
Serialization & compliance
Move from loose codes to GTINs, lot/batch, and regulatory IDs.
Traceability backbone
Let every scan feed a consistent chain of custody across systems.
Lifecycle tracking

Product traceability lifecycle (end‑to‑end)

Each unit carries a unique identifier from supplier to customer, so you can trace issues without guesswork.

Supplier → Component → Assembly → Finished product → Dispatch → Customer
Supplier
ID: SUP‑BC/RFID
Vendor ID + lot
Component
ID: CMP‑SER
Internal part ID
Assembly
ID: ASM‑SER
Bill‑of‑materials link
Finished product
ID: PRD‑GTIN/SER
GTIN + serial
Dispatch
ID: CAS/PAL
Case/pallet label
Customer
ID: CUST‑SCAN
Field scan or return
Everything connected by a single trace

Every scan updates a connected chain of custody. From any point—field failure, recall, customer query—you can move upstream or downstream in a few clicks.

Serialization

How serialization links components to finished products

Parent‑child relationships make it clear which components went into which product—and which shipments carried them.

Parent‑child mapping
Product ID: PRD‑SER‑984213

Linked to components: CMP‑A‑102, CMP‑B‑556, CMP‑C‑774 (each with its own supplier, lot, and test result).

Case ID: CASE‑4421

Contains 12× PRD‑SER‑9842xx. A single scan at dispatch links all 12 serials to the shipment.

Why it matters
  • Isolate only the affected units during a recall—not entire batches.
  • See which suppliers and lines contribute to field failures.
  • Give customers confidence with verifiable product histories.
Compliance

Compliance flow: Scan → Record → Validate → Audit‑ready

A simple pattern that keeps you ready for regulators and customers without adding extra paperwork.

Scan
Barcode / QR / RFID
Record
Who, what, when, where
Validate
GTIN, lot, expiry rules
Audit‑ready
Structured data for evidence
Common compliance questions
  • Can we prove which lots went to which customers?
  • Can we show GTIN/expiry rules were followed at label time?
  • Can we answer an auditor’s question in minutes, not days?
Anti‑counterfeit

Genuine vs fake: using traceability to detect counterfeits

By tying every code to a real history, you can quickly spot labels that don’t belong to genuine units.

GENUINE PRODUCT
  • Scan resolves to a valid serial with full history.
  • Expected geography, channel, and time window.
  • No conflicting scans for the same serial.
SUSPECTED FAKE
  • Serial not found, or marked inactive/blocked.
  • Scans from impossible locations or volumes.
  • Label pattern doesn’t match your AIDC design.
