Allpax has introduced a comprehensive system for tracing cans, trays and pouches from filling through sterilisation, to lower the risk of product recall of shelf-stable foods. The system encompasses tighter information integration between packaging machines, retort room baskets and the electronic sterilisation records of each retort in the cannery.
The cannery traceability system gives plant operations personnel an electronic record from filler to retort room for every sterilised batch of products cased and ready to be shipped. The system records whether the contents of each retort basket were properly sterilised. Should problems or questions about a batch crop up, the system provides information that plant personnel can use to trace back through the packaging and sterilisation process and identify the conditions that led to the potential quality or health issue.
A barcode tracking system can be added to baskets if the baskets are being loaded manually. In automated retort rooms, software is used to track baskets.
