CodingControl™

Connecting your production environment

As a manufacturer, you will be familiar with the whole host of problems associated with product waste and recalls, production reworks and downtime and the knock-on business impacts and financial costs. This is often down to a disconnected manufacturing environment that relies on multiple human touchpoints to manage and control the production line.

CodingControl is an SAP-certified IoT platform that integrates SAP to production line devices to send the right data to the right device at the right time. Compatible with both SAP ECC and S/4HANA, CodingControl can be deployed in days and facilitates the data flow from SAP to one, or multiple, devices, including primary coders, video equipment, secondary case labellers and palletisers.

CodingControlTM Highlights

Accurate Label Data

All data is generated directly from SAP to ensure accuracy, with template previews available for verification before sending to devices. Labels can be added to orders, with approval required from a quality manager before releasing the order to the production line. New label templates can also be easily prepared in advance of a planned promotion to enable a quick changeover to a temporary label design for a set time period.

This process offers you the reassurance the correct data and labels are being sent to the production line, first time, every time.

Single Central Cockpit

All outgoing and incoming production line data is managed from one central platform to provide a single view of your production landscape, whether that is one line in one plant or multiple lines across facilities globally.

Labelling and coding templates and data are set up and sent to one, or multiple production devices, while verification confirmations and error messages from devices are also sent back and managed from the same platform.

Rolling Changeovers

With data flow controlled by a single source, CodingControl enables rolling changeovers through the ability to switch over one device to a new order, while others continue to operate. This is ideal for situations where the primary coding device is ready to be changed for the next production run, but the pallet labelling is still in operation.

Enabling continued production ensures lines can always run at optimum efficiency, with minimal downtime for increased production output.

Device Integration

CodingControl can integrate with one, or multiple, coding, labelling, printing and verification devices, including primary coders, video and camera scanning equipment, secondary case labellers and palletisers. For a fully connected solution, we can also integrate to wider equipment in your facility, such as PLCs, weighing scales and pallet stackers.

Our solution is compatible with hardware from leading manufacturers including Zebra, Markem imaje, Videojet and Logopak to name a few.

    CodingControl FAQ’s

    CodingControl is compatible with any production line device including primary coders, secondary case labellers, palletisers, auto-labellers, weighing scales, PLCs and video equipment. 

    Yes, CodingControl is an SAP certified product and is available on the SAP Store. 

    There is no limit to the number of devices on a line or the number of production lines that CodingControl can connect to.  

    CodingControl can generate template previews as a quality control measure so they can be confirmed by the relevant authority before being sent to the devices on the production line.  

    CodingControl is installed locally so that if there is a connection issue with SAP, CodingControl can still send label data to production devices and all the data from the production line can continue to be sent to CodingControl. As soon as the connection to SAP is restored, all the production data will be updated in SAP so there is no downtime in production.  

    CodingControl works with both SAP ECC and S/4HANA.

    CodingControl integrates directly with SAP, without the need for any middleware. With two-way sharing of data, CodingControl sends order and label data to production line devices, while receiving order and verification data back to update in SAP in real-time. 

    Due to the two-way sharing of data between CodingControl and production devices, key data from the production line can be displayed in a single dashboard within CodingControl, which could include units produced by line, goods receipted from production, scrappage, efficiency by line, material consumption levels.  

    CodingControl is used to connect SAP to production devices to ensure accurate, up-to-date data from SAP is shared with the right devices. This could include the data for codes being applied to individual products or labels printed for application to product cases or pallets. Production data is also shared from the production devices to CodingControl to allows goods receipts to be posted in SAP once a finished pallet has been confirmed.
