Manufacturing pros, gather ’round! If managing traceability feels like juggling flaming torches blindfolded, breathe easy—Epicor’s Connected Process Control (CPC) Track & Trace is here to save your day (and your sanity). At Data V Tech, we know manufacturing isn’t just about making stuff; it’s about making the right stuff, at the right time, with the right quality. Let’s dig into how CPC Track & Trace can turn your factory floor into a well-oiled, insight-powered machine.
Why Traceability Is Your Manufacturing Superpower
Manufacturers from every corner—medical, automotive, aerospace, food & beverage—you name it—are waking up to the fact that traceability isn’t just a checkbox. It’s a strategic advantage. With regulations tightening and customers demanding transparency, knowing exactly what’s happening at every step in your process is crucial. Lost parts, missing data, delayed recalls? No thanks.
Epicor CPC Track & Trace helps you capture detailed, real-time data—think digital birth certificates for each product, down to its individual components. Date, time, place, operator ID, quality checks, and even assembly images are all recorded seamlessly. It’s like giving every widget its own social profile, full of “likes” (quality passes) and “comments” (process data) you can audit anytime.
How It Works: More Than Just Scanning Barcodes
Forget slow or clunky systems that make you wait. Epicor’s solution integrates tightly with your plant floor controllers and networks for lightning-fast responses (sub-second, in fact). You can track parts using anything from serial numbers and 1D/2D barcodes to RFID tags, combined in any order you need. Need to marry parts together mid-assembly? No problem. Want to halt a batch the second a defect appears? Done.
The system lets you configure flexible production paths, control reworks and repairs rigorously, and even integrate IoT devices plug-n-play style—no programming headaches involved. Imagine a factory where every workstation has its own brain, catching issues early and maintaining quality standards without breaking a sweat.
Crunchy Benefits for the Manufacturing Expert
- Unmatched Quality Control: Instantly identify and contain defective parts to keep your First Time Quality (FTQ) scores sky-high.
- Cost Cuts Without the Drama: Streamlined processes mean less waste, fewer recalls, and optimized labor deployment.
- Regulatory Peace of Mind: FDA 21 CFR Part 11 audit trails? Check. Digital proof to satisfy OEMs and customers? Double check.
- Transparency & Real-Time Insights: Dashboards and web-based reports let you visualize production trends, quality spills, repair history, and so much more.
- Warranty & Recall Protection: Quickly pinpoint quality spills and manage warranty claims with robust data to back you up.
When Bad Parts Show Up, Knock Them Out Fast
Epicor CPC Track & Trace empowers you to contain quality spills by identifying suspect parts at lightning speed to stop defective batches from rolling down the line. This capability not only protects your brand reputation but saves you real dollars on recalls and rework.
Bonus Level: Production Images That Tell Stories
What if you could see the “why” behind a defect instead of just the “what”? With CPC’s integrated image capture, quality issues are easier to analyze. Operators can snap 2D images during assembly, all linked to the part’s trace history—a game-changer for root-cause analysis and warranty defense.
