Data Management
All orders are entered into the IST system and are routed through production stages with computer scheduling. Orders are serialized, labeled with bar code tickets and processed according to established production schedules.
Employees sign off each process step “online" and create new process tickets for subsequent operations. Management observes product movement “online”, and on in-plant monitors.
Process control data-logging occurs on all primary equipment. Key process characteristics such as temperature, atmosphere control, process time, operator signoffs and quench temperature are stored and easily recalled for every production lot. Information is maintained for 20 years minimum.
