Line Control and Monitoring
Basket Tracking System
Our Basket Tracking System (BTS) not only coordinates all movements of baskets, but also records all data and monitors preprocess dwell time deviations. The eyes of the BTS are the barcodes that identify the baskets in key locations of the process while they move along: loading (fill time for dwell time tracking), in the retort, process start and process end, and unload.
The BTS flags any anomalies (e.g. baskets with a different product, unsterilized or wrong product at unloader, etc.). In that case, a QC privilege is needed to release any product that has been flagged.
Features & Benefits
- Coordinates all movements of the baskets
- Records all data
- Monitors pre-process dwell time deviations
- Provides a good system overview of the complete Automated Batch Retort System
