Abstract
The invention relates to a method for producing a product compilation, which comprises at least one main product and at least one or more subproducts. The main product or a subproduct is provided as a leading object with machine-readable data, which comprise a process key (1), which comprises at least one uniform resource identifier (URI, 2) and a control element region (3), wherein, in the production process, at least one machine recognizes the process key (1) and a work step of the machine is triggered by the process key (1).
Claims24
A method for producing a product compilation comprising at least one main product and at least one or more subproducts, the method comprising:
- providing the main product or the subproduct as a leading product with machine-readable data, which includes a process key, which comprises at least one uniform resource identifier and a control element region,
- recognizing said process key in the production process by at least one machine,
- triggering a work step of said at least one machine by said process key,
- defining said work step at a production run time for the product compilation by accessing data that are defined by the uniform resource identifier, wherein the uniform resource identifier comprises a pointer that points to at least one control information databank accessible via a data network, and
- carrying out said work step on said product compilation, wherein in said work step the product compilation is physically modified.
A shopping bag, comprising at least one main product or subproduct having machine-readable data, the machine-readable data comprising at least one process key, which comprises at least one uniform resource identifier and a control element region,
- wherein the process key is recognizable in a production process by at least one machine,
- wherein a work step of said at least one machine is triggerable by said process key, the shopping bag being physically modified in said work step,
- wherein the work step is defined at production run time by accessing data that are defined by the uniform resource identifier, and
- wherein the uniform resource identifier comprises a pointer that points to at least one control information databank accessible via a data network.
A printed product comprising at least one main product or subproduct having machine-readable data, the machine-readable data comprising at least one process key, which comprises at least one uniform resource identifier and a control element region,
- wherein the process key is recognizable in a production process by at least one machine,
- wherein a work step of said at least one machine is triggerable by said process key, the printed product being physically modified in said work step,
- wherein the work step is defined at production run time by accessing data that are defined by the uniform resource identifier, and
- wherein the uniform resource identifier comprises a pointer that points to at least one control information databank accessible via a data network.
A container made of plastic or cardboard, comprising at least one main product or subproduct having machine-readable data, the machine-readable data comprising at least one process key, which comprises at least one uniform resource identifier and a control element region,
- wherein the process key is recognizable in a production process by at least one machine,
- wherein a work step of said at least one machine is triggerable by said process key, the container being physically modified in said work step,
- wherein the work step is defined at production run time by accessing data that are defined by the uniform resource identifier, and
- wherein the uniform resource identifier comprises a pointer that points to at least one control information databank accessible via a data network.
