What is the iTAC.TR.Service?
Traceability describes the ability to fully document and trace the entire lifecycle of a product. This includes all information about where, when, how and under which conditions a part was manufactured. Every component, every process step and every measurement result forms a data chain that enables a clear and verifiable history of the product.
This traceability is indispensable in modern manufacturing. It creates transparency across materials, machines, processes and quality inspections. It allows sources of error to be identified more quickly, risks to be reduced and regulatory requirements to be met more easily. Traceability is therefore not just a documentation tool, but a direct contribution to process reliability, product quality and competitiveness.
Definition Traceability
Traceability in industry is the ability to completely document and track the origin, whereabouts and path of a product or component throughout its entire lifecycle.
The iTAC.TR.Service is designed precisely for this purpose. It is the traceability solution within the iTAC.MOM.Suite for MES/MOM and enables active, automated and end-to-end traceability throughout the entire production process. The service gathers data directly from the machines, assigns it clearly to the respective product and thus creates a complete digital documentation of manufacturing. It links material, machine and process data in real time and immediately reveals deviations. This prevents errors at an early stage, stabilizes processes and ensures that quality requirements are consistently met.
Traceability with the iTAC.TR.Service means transparency at every step, secure tracking of all components and a reliable data basis for quality, compliance and efficient manufacturing processes. The traceability solution of the iTAC.MOM.Suite enables rapid error detection through end-to-end traceability of all production steps, ensures compliance with quality and regulatory requirements, and sustainably strengthens competitiveness.
In practice: active traceability with iTAC.TR.Service in production
iTAC.TR.Service is a feature that enables reliable identification and data collection directly at production machines. It ensures secure product assignment and batch tracking in real time. It supports data collection and guarantees documentation with a standardized data structure.
iTAC’s active traceability seamlessly connects all process steps to detect and correct errors in real time. Process interlocking ensures that any detected defect, machine issue, or material deviation immediately triggers the blocking of affected units, preventing non conforming products from moving forward in the process. Recalls, machine malfunctions, and customer returns can be handled efficiently, as relevant serial numbers, time ranges, and complete unit histories are instantly available for rapid analysis and containment.
The iTAC.MOM.Suite answers the core traceability questions for all serialized individual items:
Based on which master data
With which production order
At what time
On which machines
With which quality and measurement data
And using which supplier lots and units
was the product or individual part manufactured?
