Jul 31, 2024
Problem Statement
The production of blood testing products requires precise ingredient management due to high costs and short shelf lives. Manual processes risk errors, leading to waste and compliance issues. The objective was to implement an automated system to track raw materials and ensure process accuracy.
Solution
Elyxor, in collaboration with BarCodeDirect, developed the Ingredient Capture System, a robust Android-based platform with integrated barcode scanning. The system tracks raw materials (serial/lot numbers, expiration dates) and monitors production steps to ensure compliance and reduce errors.
Key Features
Automated Verification: Scans and validates raw materials to prevent incorrect or expired ingredient use.
Process Monitoring: Tracks and alerts technicians on production steps, ensuring proper procedures are followed.
Middleware Integration: Simplifies connectivity with existing ERP systems while operating independently for performance.
Global Deployment: Designed as a multilingual system for facilities in North America and China.
Results
Reduced Waste: Prevented the use of incorrect or expired ingredients.
Improved Efficiency: Streamlined production steps, saving time and reducing errors.
Enhanced Compliance: Enabled precise tracking for audits and regulatory reporting.
Seamless Integration: Fully integrated with ERP systems for real-time manufacturing and reporting data.
Tech Stack
Platform: Java-based Android OS
Hardware: Zebra handheld devices with integrated barcode scanners
Backend: .NET with MS-SQL Server
