AutoCoding System
AutoCoding Systems was founded in 2005 by a small group of coding and marking specialists who recognised the number of recurring packaging problems faced by food and beverage manufacturers. It has since grown to become a global leader in the automation of packaging lines and workflow control, with offices in the USA, UK and Australia. We help food and drink manufacturers avoid product recalls and re-work by providing workflow software solutions for packaging verification and date code control, enabling them to eliminate errors, reduce risk and improve set-up times for product labelling and packaging. Our control monitoring and recipe deployment is well known throughout the industry and in 2021, AutoCoding Systems was acquired by JBT Corporation, a global technology solutions provider to the food and beverage industry. Our services are scalable, ranging from entry-level coding integrity solutions to complete setup and control of all packaging line devices. AutoCoding connects to coders, barcode scanners, labellers, metal detectors, checkweighers and vision solutions, continuously monitoring and collecting data to support a seamless process and data-rich environment. We continue to add value to our customers with our range of modular software applications in three distinct layers consisting of control, data acquisition and data reporting and visualisation. Using our modular approach, factories can progressively create smart packaging lines and error-proof primary, secondary and tertiary packaging. Our modules enable devices and applications to work together, allowing them to communicate, share data and report on packaging performance and quality insights from our digital tools. This combination makes packaging line automation accessible and affordable. It minimises human intervention, eliminates errors and improves set-up time. Now that's smart!
