International standard quality grading
for DataMatrix codes on automotive parts.
The DataMatrix Quality Grading Station implemented at Phinia's İzmir ESBAŞ plant evaluates DM code print quality using a 3-axis servo system and grading camera, integrated with Oracle ERP.
High quality standards in automotive part marking
Phinia's plant in İzmir ESBAŞ Free Zone manufactures for the automotive industry. A DM grading station was established to measure the print quality of Datamatrix (DM) codes on products.
The inspection station ensures all production complies with international quality norms and 100% customer readability.
Unreadable code risks at customer side
DM codes on parts could not be read at the end-customer side, creating operational issues.
- 01Presence Check InsufficiencyCode existence was not enough; print grade had to conform to international standards.
- 02Customer ClaimsUnreadable codes caused assembly halts and quality claims at customer facilities.
- 03Lack of Automated GradingAn automated station was needed to measure, grade, and report DM code print quality objectively.
