Single Piece Traceability
Overview
Section titled “Overview”The Single Piece Traceability (SPT) module extends production visibility beyond the sewing line by tracking each individual garment through various post-sewing processes using Barcode scanning technology.
This ensures real-time traceability of every piece up to final packing.
Components
Section titled “Components”- Unique QR Code Labels: Each garment is tagged with a unique QR label after sewing.
- Barcode Scanners: Installed at each process station to scan garments at every stage.
- Traceability Software System: Records and tracks every scan event to maintain a live traceability log of each piece.
Step-by-Step Process
Section titled “Step-by-Step Process”-
Post-Sewing QR Tagging:
Once a garment exits the sewing line, it is tagged with a unique QR label.
-
Entry into SPT Module:
The garment is scanned using a barcode scanner at the entry point of the Single Piece Traceability module.
-
Sequential Stage Scanning:
Each garment is scanned at multiple checkpoints/stages:
- Rigid Station
- Staging
- Garment Wet Process
- Garment Dry Process
- After Wash QC
- Finishing
- Packing
At each station, the scanner scans the QR code and updates the system with:
- Time of scan
- Operator/station details
- Process stage
-
Final Scan at Packing:
The last scan is done at the Packing Station, confirming the completion of the traceability cycle for that garment.
