For products that are more susceptible to fraud, i.e. baby food and alcohol, a unique code on the package is mandatory to trace them back to their producers. The objective is to effectively prevent counterfeits and diversions, and to ensure an effective recall, less costly process for supply chain management.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>&#8220;According to Food Safety Magazine, 337 US food products have been recalled in 2019 due to various quality issues.&#8221;<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-28f84493 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"636\" height=\"736\" src=\"https:\/\/global.laetus.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/dam\/web-images\/knowledge-base\/blog-images\/3ts-supply-chain-636x736-en.jpg?w=636\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-739\" srcset=\"https:\/\/global.laetus.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/dam\/web-images\/knowledge-base\/blog-images\/3ts-supply-chain-636x736-en.jpg?w=636&amp;resize=636&amp;quality=80&amp;strip=all 636w, https:\/\/global.laetus.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/dam\/web-images\/knowledge-base\/blog-images\/3ts-supply-chain-636x736-en.jpg?resize=259&amp;w=259&amp;quality=80&amp;strip=all 259w, https:\/\/global.laetus.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/dam\/web-images\/knowledge-base\/blog-images\/3ts-supply-chain-636x736-en.jpg?resize=389&amp;w=389&amp;quality=80&amp;strip=all 389w, https:\/\/global.laetus.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/dam\/web-images\/knowledge-base\/blog-images\/3ts-supply-chain-636x736-en.jpg?resize=503&amp;w=503&amp;quality=80&amp;strip=all 503w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 636px) 100vw, 636px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>positioning of print!?<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"636\" height=\"572\" src=\"https:\/\/global.laetus.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/dam\/web-images\/knowledge-base\/blog-images\/3ts-supply-chain-corn-636x572-en.jpg?w=636\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-741\" srcset=\"https:\/\/global.laetus.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/dam\/web-images\/knowledge-base\/blog-images\/3ts-supply-chain-corn-636x572-en.jpg?w=636&amp;resize=636&amp;quality=80&amp;strip=all 636w, https:\/\/global.laetus.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/dam\/web-images\/knowledge-base\/blog-images\/3ts-supply-chain-corn-636x572-en.jpg?resize=300&amp;w=300&amp;quality=80&amp;strip=all 300w, https:\/\/global.laetus.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/dam\/web-images\/knowledge-base\/blog-images\/3ts-supply-chain-corn-636x572-en.jpg?resize=450&amp;w=450&amp;quality=80&amp;strip=all 450w, https:\/\/global.laetus.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/dam\/web-images\/knowledge-base\/blog-images\/3ts-supply-chain-corn-636x572-en.jpg?resize=582&amp;w=582&amp;quality=80&amp;strip=all 582w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 636px) 100vw, 636px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>watermelon or corn?<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Defective products not only raise your operating costs due to the penalties issued by retailers, but also damage your brand\u2019s reputation. To save logistics expenses and avoid shipping faulty products to retailers\u2019 warehouses, errors and defects should be detected at the production plants and reject right on the packaging lines.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-raisin-black-color has-text-color\">For a robust supply chain process, you need this <strong>3T approach:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h6 class=\"wp-block-heading has-cerulean-red-color has-text-color\" id=\"log-every-transaction\" style=\"font-style:normal;font-weight:500\"><strong>Log every TRANSACTION<\/strong><\/h6>\n\n\n\n<p>There is variety of processes defined for manufacturing and shipping food products. Using predetermined criteria on the food production line, cameras will inspect and detect defects related to product and packaging in real time. The camera is driven by software that record defects. The software on the production line is interfacing with your ERP system, which contains and transmits a consistent data stream to enable the manufacturing processes to be controlled, evaluated and optimized.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Depending on the food product and quality requirements, several packaging inspections should be placed on your production line to ensure the desired quality of finishing goods. Hardware solutions such as color cameras, code readers, scanners and sensors which are used to inspect different features:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Orientation:\u00a0<\/strong>verify that a code, such as batch number, production lot, expiration date are aligned correctly.<br><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Print quality:<\/strong>\u00a0check if the quality of the code is readable, straight, and with the appropriate contrast.<br><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>1D\/2D coding:<\/strong>\u00a0bar codes and 2D codes are utilized for marking and identification of products. During inspection, the codes are read by a camera and compared with a reference code stored in the software system. If the code is not readable or if it does not exist in the database, the system reports an error message.<br><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Color:<\/strong>\u00a0color inspection is used to check color on individual items that will be put into the package.

According to these regulations, companies must be able to trace goods back to their batch level in case of a recall. Globalization increases the complexity of supply chain management. According to McKinsey\u2019s survey<a href=\"https:\/\/www.mckinsey.com\/business-functions\/operations\/our-insights\/a-practical-approach-to-supply-chain-risk-management\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><sup>2<\/sup><\/a>&nbsp;of 639 executives in various countries and industries, 72% expected the risk of supply chain disruption to continue to rise.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The supply chain function remains right at the center of companies\u2019 organizational structure \u2013 after manufacturing, before sales and customer service. A sturdy and effective process to ship the right product to the right place requires close collaborations across job functions and departments within a company.
