Bar Code Traceability

Machine readable bar code laser engraving technology has been developed that produces a permanent mark on production parts and materials (metals, plastics, wood, ceramics, glass, etc). This technology simplifies and facilitates production line Traceability Data Collection Systems. INDUSTRIAL LASER SYSTEMS has formed strategic partnerships to provide industrial customers with complete Traceability Data Collection Systems.
