ADVANCED
BOTTLE
TRACEABILITY
The AV Bottle Tracking Technology is an ideal solution for the serialization of bottles, rounded packaging and unconventional shapes. The unique serial number is printed on the product surface and is readable by a special camera architecture which covers the entire surface of each product’s packaging.
The station then performs a 360-degree reading of the unoriented bottle surface for recognition of a tax label and code association. By checking and reading the code further, it ensures there is a serialization “dummy code” printed underneath the bottle and associated to the previous serial code. Non-conforming bottles are rejected by an air-blow/ mechanical system.
FEATURES:
The four cameras are positioned 90 degrees apart to recognize the 2D code on the unoriented bottle. Four individual images are then captured as the product passes through the inspection module.
The complete integrity of all serial number data is guaranteed and monitored in real-time.
DON’T HESITATE,
AGGREGATE!
Aggregation is the combination of serialized single products packaged together on different levels and identified by unique serial numbers.
DON’T HESITATE,
AGGREGATE!
Aggregation is the combination of serialized single products packaged together on different levels and identified by unique serial numbers.
The process of creating these packages optimizes product traceability which makes it safer, easier and faster, due to a higher comprehension of the contents within. Aggregation can be implemented on any existing production lines.
The concept of aggregation is best explained with the use of this familiar hierarchy concept:
- Single serialized products are referred to as “children” and are packaged together into a bundle, which is also known as the “parent”.
When this package is then put together with other bundles, they are then referred to as the “child” and packaged into a case “parent”.
- This process can then develop from case to pallet.
- Each level of aggregation is given a unique serial number, which when scanned, provides details of all the serials within the entire package.
KEY FEATURES:
OPTIMIZE YOUR LOGISTIC OPERATIONS
We anticipate and understand the growing demands of your logistic operations. By implementing aggregation, your logistics can quickly comprehend package contents without dissembling them, therefore saving vast amounts of time which will increase overall productivity. Aggregating will also ensure product is not stored over its expiry date, thus minimizing wastage.
TAKE CARE ABOUT YOUR OEE
The aggregation implementation process is delicate and demands the care of true expertise, could ensure minimal impact for your production OEE. Improving the full end to end traceability on your production lines with aggregation will benefit your entire production and supply chain.
SAVE THE INTEGRITY OF YOUR DATA
Our data integrity protection safeguards your data, even within a multi-vendor environment. Our full compatibility with existing external solutions protects your current production environment, ensuring workflow continuity and the security of your data.
LEVERAGE DATA TO IMPROVE YOUR FUTURE
The Overall Equipment Effectiveness (OEE), from serialized line and managed by aggregation solutions, can be elevated with the introduction of AVionics. AVionics is the comprehensive tool designed to monitor the production efficiency and performance of your line in real time, based on predictive analysis and smart analytics. AVionics works with data not only taken from existing serialized lines and aggregation but also from the packaging machines and all other production equipment. Therefore, it is possible to have a full overview in which you are able to monitor the complete performance.
THE FUTURE OF AGGREGATION
As the world’s most comprehensive, reliable and widespread Track & Trace platform, we can implement a wide range of flexible aggregation solutions, taking into consideration different workloads - complete with both hardware and software.

The AV Warehouse Tracking System manages reworking activities, shipments and reception/ returns of all products aggregated during production, offering a comprehensive set of tools to monitor KPIs and operational efficiency.
The AV Warehouse Tracking System’s main functions are:
- Post lot reworking: identification, disaggregation/ reaggregation, decommissioning, labelling and inventory
- Receiving: goods received and returns
- Shipment: picking/ packing, creation of packing aggregation into the logistic process, association of serial numbers to shipment/delivery orders
- Monitoring/ Supervising: workflow management, real-time and offline dashboards
FEATURES:
The AV Warehouse Tracking System is an easy-to-use single user interface that operates on all hardware modules (packing station, mobile devices), fully integrates with our WMS and production environment. Natively prepared to connect with MoH and integrates any new track and trace regulation emerging in time (ATS Core technology). Its Client/ Server architecture allows central management of multiple warehouses and functions which can be configured according to actual warehouse workflows as well as allowing encrypted data transactions.
PROVEN
EXPERIENCE.
LEADING
TECHNOLOGY.
The AV Tracking System is the complete software suite for the management of Track & Trace and e-Pedigree. The Antares Vision Tracking System is currently installed in over 300 plants, with over 5bn SKUs in serialization and aggregation.
Full warehouse operations are enabled through the Warehouse Tracking System module, for the performance of efficient decommissioning, recommissioning and shipment operations, seamlessly interacting with the plant managers, repositories and the existing warehouse management systems.
FEATURES:
- Flexibility: serial numbers can be generated randomly or gradually and imported from external sources.
- Easy to use: Lines can be easily configured to work according to the different global regulations and level of aggregation required by the single work order.
- Smart and efficient: Reworking of damaged cartons, partially filled bundles or cases, are managed in an easy and efficient way, thus maximizing line OEE.
