The electronics industry marks devices with coded type label containing the serial numbers. In some cases, marking is also carried out directly by laser.
With the help of serial numbers and the automated detection of codes, device data is managed and used to ensure that processes can be controlled efficiently and quickly in cases of returns, repairs and complaints. In the production of printed circuit boards and components, coding is used in order to be able to trace which components and batches have been installed in finished devices. In addition, the coding also meets the regulatory requirements of the automotive and medical device industries. EDIFICE provides the industry with detailed coding standards.
