    Packaging information Packaging information. can. be any information sealing parameters, which pertain to the packaging such as aseptic parameters, cleaning parameters, production date / time, machine ID, splice / point test information, quality control points, or weight controls. 10 l5 20 25 30 35 _ 7 _ Information about secondary packaging The information about the secondary packaging can be any kind of information concerning the secondary packaging such as the number of individual packages in a multi-package / box / pallet, unique ID, location in a store or labeling information.
    The following description focuses on an embodiment of the present invention which can be applied to dairy production. It should be noted, however, that the invention is not limited to this application, but can be applied to many other production processes including, for example, food production such as juice production, meat production, vegetable production or prepared food production, or non-food production such as chemical production or dye production.
    The schematic process according to Fig. 3 illustrates an example of a production process in a dairy. Milk is produced and collected at the production site 310.
    Information regarding the cow such as her age and information from the farm such as health are collected. feed use and feed origin, temporary storage conditions, quality control points, geographical location are collected. The information is stored in such a database as is well known to those skilled in the art. The time marking for each piece of information is also registered and stored together with the information in the database.
    The milk is then collected and transported 320 to the place where it is processed.
    Information. with regard to the mode of transport and the conditions of transport are collected. The information is stored database well-known professionals.
    The time marking for each piece of information is registered and in one that is too is also stored together with the information in the database.
    O l0 l5 20 25 30 35 After transport. the milk comes to it. plant 330 where it is to be processed. Information about storage, gives a traceability back to the raw material. For example, when milk is taken from a cistern for i.e. how and ^ where, the transport and also provides information on further processing, the information about the storage, the information about the raw material and new entered information about Information can be collected. if (UHT), the type of processing is linked. the treatment at ultra-high temperatures the pasteurization conditions, storage containers, the processing recipes, the quality control points, the processing conditions or the additives. The information is stored in such a database as is well known to those skilled in the art. The database can be any kind of database normally used to perform. de 'tasks son: are involved, e.g. and SQL database. limited to this specific database.
    The invention. shall not, however, be considered to be The time marking for each piece of information is registered and stored together with the information in the database.
    The processed milk is then packaged 340 with a filling machine. Information is collected on aseptic parameters such as H2O2 or sealing parameters, the amount and concentration of its cleaning parameters and range, machine ID such as clamping jaw ID as element in temperature, production date / time, identifies the identity of the seal, packaging machine, event ID such as splicing packaging material / spot test information , cleaning on or shortening the filling and location stops of the packaging machine, quality control points, or about the weight. The information is stored in such a database as professionals. is registered and is well known for each also The time stamp for the information piece is stored together with the information in the database. 10 15 20 25 30 35 _ 9 _ After packaging, a secondary packaging 350 is performed.
    Information is collected regarding the number of individual packages in a multi-package / box / pallet, unique IDs for the multi-package / box / pallet, locations in storage and / or labeling information. The information is stored in professionals.
    The time stamp for each piece of information is registered and such a database which is well known for is also stored together with the information in the database.
    All information collected is cross-referenced based on the time marking for each piece of information. This makes it possible to track the milk along a timeline and accurately generate output data containing said cross-reference information for each milk package.
    Consequently, the information links provide traceability all the way back to the raw material source via all actions and events along the line. To improve the embodiment, the traceability is conceivable, in one to use synchronized timekeeping different tracking of information. This synchronization can e.g. between all the devices for collecting and using an internet time server or a radio signal from an accurate clock, such as an atomic clock.
    The output quantity can, for example, be a code printed on the product's packaging. Especially on smaller packages, it is desirable that the printed code does not take up too much space on the outer surface of the package, since there is also a desire to use the outer surface to show the brand, nutritional values, decorations, etc. Therefore, the code is suitably quite concise, which can be achieved, for example, with a number of stacked data fields such as F + L + ProdDate + AlphaHour + MSS + StationID, where F is the production site, L is the production line, ProdDate is the production day, AlphaHour is the production hour, MMSS is the minute and second of production. and StationID is the ID of the Imaskin part used for sealing the package. It may be, for example, an ID of the sealing element such as a sealing jaw, an injection molding sealing station, or a lid applicator. of course include only a subset of the above-mentioned data fields, and / or include other data fields, as long as the packages or at least one group of packages can be uniquely identified.
    The output amount is a sequence character son1 is unique to each package. Here. For example, the characters can be represented by symbols of different alphabetical sizes, such as the numbers 0 to 9 or the letters A to Z, the sequence shortened so that it can be printed to make a compact code on the package. The output set can also be presented with a barcode or DOT matrix.
    The packaged milk is then delivered 360 via regular distribution chains to the end consumers. become the packaging's unique ID access to detailed information cm1 as desired. The availability so that different information becomes available. A wholesaler can thus get After the distribution, the database can be accessed through access code use of which and one can get more database can be made selective amounts produce more information than an end consumer. In one embodiment, a web portal for wholesalers is made available where the wholesaler can obtain information about product safety. You can also offer a hotline for where the end customer can get information regarding This customers, on for example the geographical origin of the milk. gives the customer added value and enriches the customer's experiences. also that properties have control Customers opportunity the products such as transport and processing information.
