| Scan2Track Recipe software is a cost effective method of ensuring precise measurement and traceability of ingredients when mixing or compounding materials. Product consistency is maintained during mixing and compounding so that you realize predictable outcomes. The system guides the operator through the sequence of ingredients required, together with the quantities necessary for the recipe. As each ingredient is weighed, the system requests that the operator enter the batch/serial number of each ingredient in order to associate it with the end product. Unique batch numbers are printed and attached to all mixed products in order to maintain the integrity of the traceability of all source ingredients to the end product. Time is saved with easy installation, accuracy, and the ability to instantly access recipe mixing and compounding information. Money is saved with the elimination of paper forms, recipe books, tags, and key-entry activities. Flexibility comes from the choice of a wide variety of scales and hand held devices to fit any budget or work environment. This cost effective tool puts the power in your hands to streamline and improve the recipe mixing and compounding processes while adding full product traceability from source ingredients to finished product.
