Production
The Parts Traceability System (PTS) is one of the applications within the MES suite of tools. It was developed to meet the demands of customers to provide component level traceability as well as quality controls. This system plays a very important role in automating the production lines and raising productivity as well as enforcing rigorous product quality control. It has been implemented to many plants across the globe. This application and the features it provides continue to evolve, as the changing technologies used for the SMT process equipment tools become more detailed and rich in functionality.
