How does the system intercept counterfeit components at incoming inspection?
The NEO COUNTER X-ray system performs non-destructive analysis of incoming components before they enter inventory, comparing internal die structures against known-good reference databases. Detection results are automatically linked to each component’s digital identity, and suspect parts are immediately quarantined and flagged. Combined with supplier qualification management and lot traceability, this establishes a multi-layered defense program compliant with AS5553 requirements.
What level of granularity does project isolation support?
SMD BOX enforces project ownership tagging and isolation down to the individual reel level. Within a single storage cabinet, components from different programs are logically segregated, and the permission system ensures only authorized personnel can access material assigned to their specific program. Any cross-program retrieval attempt is automatically blocked and generates a security alert.
How does the system guarantee 20+ years of tamper-proof records?
The SMF software platform uses append-only logging — all transaction records are write-once, never modified or deleted. Each record captures timestamp, operator ID, component serial number, and operation type. Data can be exported and backed up externally, meeting airworthiness certification and AS9100D audit requirements for long-term credible recordkeeping.
How quickly can material histories be retrieved during an AS9100D audit?
The system supports multi-dimensional queries by lot number, component serial, program code, or date range. Enter any search criteria and receive complete material flow records in seconds — including source, incoming inspection data, storage conditions, retrieval history, and program allocation. Audit preparation time drops from weeks of manual work to minutes of system-generated reports.
How does the solution integrate with existing ERP, MES, and program management systems?
The SMF software provides standard API interfaces supporting bidirectional data synchronization with SAP and other ERP systems, MES platforms, and program management tools commonly used in aerospace and defense. Integration specifically supports project isolation data and counterfeit detection results. Typical deployment and integration is completed within 2-4 weeks.
