Points To Consider: Auto ID for Manufacturing
Whether labeling parts like engines or pistons to meet compliance, or leveraging RFID tracking on tire labels, Auto Identification systems create value through accuracy, efficiency – and reliability. Before investing in an Auto Identification tracking system for your automotive manufacturing supply chain, be sure to look at these three points:
Barcode Verification System
Your supply chain depends on accurate track and trace processes. One bad barcode can bring your whole operation to a halt, as well as creating killer compliance fees or chargebacks. Our barcode verification system, featuring ODV-2D technology, ensures accuracy with automated precision.
RFID Tracking
RFID tracking on automotive parts like tires, tools, equipment, subassemblies and kits allows instantaneous track-and-trace capabilities, while meeting complicated labeling regulations. Digitize your supply chain by embedding details like part numbers, maintenance schedules, or even environmental data, and unlock a whole new level of asset management sophistication down to the item level.
JIT for Auto
The right parts, at the right time, at the right location. This drives the modern JIT supply chain to reduce flow times within production systems and minimize lead times times from suppliers to customers boosting your profitability. Learn precisely how critical data is derived from barcodes, and how it drives your JIT supply chain.

How a Leading Manufacturer Tackled MRP Label Challenges with TSC Auto ID’s Barcode Inspection Printers
Maximum Retail Price (MRP) is a pivotal price control in countries like India, overseeing consumer goods prices to protect against illegal pricing. Its core objective is to uphold consumer awareness of commodity prices. In India, precise labeling is vital for direct retail, requiring all pre-packaged goods to display crucial information, including MRP. Fines are imposed on manufacturers who fail to comply with the 2011 Legal Metrology Packaged Commodity Registration (LM-PCR) rules.
