abbreviationStandard termProduction

Quick response codes are two-dimensional barcodes used to track parts and access digital instructions.

Quick response codes are machine-readable optical labels that store data in a grid of black and white squares. In manufacturing, they are laser-etched onto parts or printed on routing tags to track work-in-progress inventory. Scanning the code instantly pulls up assembly instructions, inspection records or material tracking histories on a shop floor tablet.

Scan the QR on the chassis before you bolt the subassembly so the system logs the torque values.
