Coding on packaging is a process most manufacturers aim to accomplish seamlessly but with minimal effort and attention. When trying to move product out the door, you want to avoid using coding equipment that can cause restraints, whether it’s slowing down a line changeover or having to adjust incorrect, missing or unreadable codes.
While these issues can be distracting, there are also non-trivial costs associated with scrap and rework that can add up. Coding errors that reach logistic and retail partners can result in both hard and soft costs.
