Optical technologies, including barcodes and printed electronics, are significantly improving visibility throughout the supply chain. Technologies like these allow for real-time tracking of goods, providing accurate and up-to-date information on the location and status of shipments. This increase in visibility minimizes the risk of errors, reduces delays and enhances overall supply chain transparency. Read more about the benefits of printed photonics in this blog post.

Gone are the days of manual sorting and organizing in warehouses or food processing facilities. Optical technologies, such as automated sorting systems using cameras and sensors, are streamlining these processes. This not only reduces the risk of human error but also accelerates the pace of sorting, leading to more efficient inventory management. For food processing, this is important as large-scale distribution chains have strict standards and time requirements. Discover how optical technologies are used throughout the food supply chain in this e-book.

The role of optics in quality control has significant implications for the broader supply chain. By ensuring the quality of products through optical inspection, companies can positively impact various aspects of the supply chain, ultimately leading to improved efficiency, customer satisfaction and overall supply chain performance. Learn in this blog post how optics are pushing the limits of product and packaging quality control.

The cold chain is an integral part of the supply chain, ensuring the safe and efficient transport and storage of temperature-sensitive products from the point of production to the end consumer. It is especially important for industries where maintaining the right temperature is paramount for product quality and safety, such as the food and pharmaceutical industry. Discover in this blog article how optics can be used to control the cold chain and ensure the safety and integrity of manufactured products.

The integration of optical technologies has revolutionized logistics and supply chains by improving visibility and tracking through printed photonics and barcodes systems to enabling automated sorting and warehousing with advanced imaging technologies, cold chain monitoring and more. As we look ahead, the continued evolution of optical technologies promises even greater advancements for modern logistics and supply chain management. Explore how optics apply to the industry.
