Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2021130147A1] A method and system for controlling items in a manufacturing chain is provided. For each item in the chain a unique identification code is defined and printed on the item. A value of a production parameter of the manufacturing chain is recorded in a database on a server after the item enters a manufacturing module equipped with a scanner that reads the unique identification code. The recorded value is associated with the unique identification code. When the code is scanned, access is granted to the value recorded in the database. The recorded value is compared with predetermined acceptable value ranges. If the value is outside of predetermined acceptable value ranges production parameters of the manufacturing module at which the value was recorded are modified.
