The benefits of UID
UID implementation increases product visibility. MIL STD 130 includes a wide range of specifications. These specifications cover material selection for UID nameplates, printing processes, marking and encoding details, UID barcodes, and even specify the size and font of the encoded data and manufacturer’s details. When a nameplate complies with these implemented rules, it receives an easy registry clearance. Actually, UID nameplates with MIL STD 130 recommended codes are universally acknowledged. The encoded data and information are verified with UID software. UID software verifies accuracy of the coded information. As such, this software verification ensures product quality and product visibility. The UID system thus emphasizes industrial benefits by improving product quality and reducing product waste as well meeting MIL STD 130 compliance measures.
