Hi,
I am an automation professional in the US. My customers have asked for a solution to track hygienic statuses of all Component Prep parts (clamps, forceps, scissors, etc.) that will be used in the manufacturing process. This is in order to mitigate risks associated with using unclean or non-SIP parts during manufacturing. This is handled as a procedural control as of now. We have Allen-Bradley PLCs, DeltaV and Syncade systems installed in the facility. We use barcode scanners to read and transfer data to Syncade now (for Tanks, etc.). Unfortunately, with the Syncade system, it takes 5-10 seconds for each scan to be successfully transferred. I am willing to explore options within Syncade or DeltaV. Has anyone implemented this solution (tracking Small Parts) in DeltaV or Syncade before?
Also, I am willing to explore options outside of Syncade/DeltaV - an independent hygienic status tracking software suite would be okay as well despite adding another system for operators to deal with.
Any insight you can provide in this area would be appreciated.
Regards,
Bhaskar
