Abstract
A system for monitoring a characteristic of a product in a testing process. An information storage device stores information relating to the product. A writing mechanism is used for writing the information to the information storage device. A reading mechanism reads the information and stores information in a database. A testing system performs a test on the product to produce a test result. The test result is stored in the database so that the test result is associated with the information, whereafter the associated information and test result stored enable monitoring of the characteristic of the product.
Claims32
A system for monitoring a characteristic of a product in a testing process, said system including:
- an information storage device for storing information relating to said product, said information storage device being separate from said product and adapted to be affixed to said product;
- writing means for writing said information to said information storage device;
- reading means for reading said information from said information storage device and storing said information in a database;
- and
- test means for performing a test on said product to produce a test result and storing said test result in said database so that the test result is associated with said information, whereafter the associated information and test result stored in said database enable monitoring of the characteristic of the product,
- wherein said product is produced at a first location and transported to a second location before said information storage device is affixed to said product, and wherein said product is transported to said second location together with identification data associated with said product, and wherein said identification data is inputted to a memory of said writing means at said second location, said identification data being subsequently written to said information storage device by said writing means as at least part of said information.
A system for monitoring a characteristic of a product in a testing process, said system including:
- an information storage device for storing information relating to said product, said information storage device being separate from said product and adapted to be affixed to said product;
- writing means for writing said information to said information storage device;
- reading means for reading said information from said information storage device and storing said information in a database;
- and
- test means for performing a test on said product to produce a test result and storing said test result in said database so that the test result is associated with said information, whereafter the associated information and test result stored in said database enable monitoring of the characteristic of the product,
- wherein said product is produced at a first location and transported to a second location before said information storage device is affixed to said product, and wherein a preliminary test is conducted on said product at said second location and a preliminary test result of said preliminary test is inputted to said writing means, said preliminary test result being subsequently written to said information storage device by said writing means as at least part of said information.
A system as for monitoring a characteristic of a product in a testing process, said system including:
- an information storage device for storing information relating to said product, said information storage device being separate from said product and adapted to be affixed to said product;
- writing means for writing said information to said information storage device;
- reading means for reading said information from said information storage device and storing said information in a database;
- test means for performing a test on said product to produce a test result and storing said test result in said database so that the test result is associated with said information, whereafter the associated information and test result stored in said database enable monitoring of the characteristic of the product;
- and
- storage means for storing said product after said information storage device has been affixed to said product and said information has been written to said information storage device;
- wherein said writing means writes said information to said, information storage device before said information storage device is affixed to said product, wherein said product is retrieved from said storage means before said reading means reads said information, and wherein said product is in a first state when said product is produced and in a second state when said test is performed on said product.
