Measurable quality assurance
for DataMatrix codes.
The project implemented at Phinia's manufacturing facility in the Izmir ESBAŞ Free Zone measures and grades the print quality of DataMatrix codes according to international standards, ensuring reliable readability.
Ensuring DataMatrix code quality
At Phinia's automotive manufacturing plant located in the Izmir ESBAŞ Free Zone, ensuring that DataMatrix codes remain readable under all conditions was a critical requirement.
To achieve this, a dedicated quality control station was implemented to evaluate and grade DataMatrix code print quality according to international standards.
Unreadable DataMatrix codes and quality risks
Simply having readable DataMatrix codes was not sufficient. The codes needed to meet international quality standards and remain reliably readable throughout the product lifecycle.
- 01Code ReadabilityPoor print quality could result in codes becoming unreadable for end users.
- 02Lack of Objective Quality MeasurementThere was no standardized system to evaluate and grade code quality.
Automated quality verification with a DM grading station
The implemented DM grading station analyzes DataMatrix codes according to international grading standards, determines quality scores, and generates detailed reports. As a result, low-quality codes can be identified and eliminated before leaving production.
Product Positioning
The product is positioned at the inspection point using a servo-controlled system.
Code Inspection
The DM grading camera captures and analyzes the DataMatrix code.
Quality Grading
The code is evaluated and graded according to international standards.
Reporting
Measurement results are recorded and quality reports are generated.
DM Grading Camera, Servo System and SCADA
DM Grading Camera
