Why Invest in Product Bar Coding?
Enables intelligent material handling
Necessary element of product traceability
Builds foundation for automatic inventory management
Allows mixed mode (lot size 1) vs. batch mode
processing in the �nal �nish area
Improves response to customer and product quality issues
Bar Coding for Tire Manufacturing
Begin bar coding by attaching bar code labels to products:
Raw materials that become rubber
Rubber that becomes components
Components that become tires
Tires that go to your customers
You can bar code products individually (green tires) or packaged in
groups (beads).
Apply pre-printed bar code labels supplied on rolls, or attach
individual bar code tags printed "on demand" as inventory is
produced.

Preprinted labels are just the right size to apply to individual products. They are designed to adhere to a tire, even through the curing process.
CTI can help you choose the bar code format and symbology that best �ts your operation. We can also help you with a strategy for bar code use throughout the plant.

You can also bar code packaged products. These applications usually utilize “on demand” bar code labels that automatically print as inventory is produced. When you attach bar codes to your products, you
identify them. Now you can track products as they are produced, moved, tested and consumed.
When you store product data keyed by bar code number, you create Product Traceability.

Because components were
scanned at a building machine,
the data base record also links to
component product data.
To retrieve this information, just
scan the tire bar code label.
Each product bar code record also links to detailed
machine and operator data.
CTI can customize data to �t your organization.

Bar Coding for Component Production using TFFIS
CTI’s Tire Factory Floor Information System (TFFIS) provides the most complete product traceability and inventory management.
TFFIS reports allow you to quickly trace and verify production.
TFFIS uses linked database records to hold this information.

Bar code number is key to all traceability and inventory functions
Linked database records hold process data for each product
TFFIS work stations (access points) accept operator and machine input to provide activity and inventory tracking
TFFIS monitors Create Dates to make sure that components are used before a de�ned expiration period
You can request inventory ordered by Create Date
Badge numbers are only included in records when operators log in to a workstation

Bar Coding for Tire Building using GTID
Use CTI’s Green Tire Identi�cation System (GTID) to begin bar coding in the tire room
Operator manually applies bar code label to each tire at the end of the build process
Green Tire ID system creates a database record keyed by bar code number and �lls it with information such as product code,
machine/operator identi�er and build date
How Can CTI Help?
CTI can help you choose a bar coding strategy that �ts your operational and business practice requirements
CTI has experience with a variety of bar code readers, including Accu-sort, Sick, and Symbol
CTI can provide the right equipment, software, and people to help you succeed
Green tire identi�cation simpli�es automated processing and data collection in the Curing and Final Finish areas. Green tire data base records can also include cure or testing recipe information.
Bar Coding for Curing Department using CTID
Use CTI’s Cured Tire Identi�cation system (CTID) to begin bar coding in the curing department
Operator manually applies a bar code label to the bead of each tire loaded into the curing press
Operator scans the bead bar code and a press run card that contains product and press data
Cured Tire ID System creates a data base record for the tire using the bead bar code as a key. The record contains a cured tire
code and identi�es the cavity, date, and operator.
If you have TFFIS or GTID, you can also perform product validation before the tire is cured. When validation is successful, cure information (cured tire code, press cavity, etc.) is added to the bar code record previously created for the green tire.
