IMTS Conference: Serialization & Traceability using MTConnect

When: Tuesday, September 13 – 11:00 AM – 11:55 AM

Location: McCormick Place, West Building – W192-C

Speaker: Lem Linder, Application Engineer and Software Developer at Mazak Corporation

One of the foundational use cases of Digital Manufacturing, is the serialization and traceability of parts throughout the factory, and then onto the customer. With Serialization and Traceability of a part, the data becomes a single source of record, a digital thread for the lifetime of the part. This digital thread of information can also be used for quality, process improvement, maintenance, digital twin, and many analytical purposes. Connecting data is the first step in making process improvements.

  • Is digital thread important?
  • What are the Use Cases for the data collected?
  • How to make this step using the ANSI standard MTConnect?
