Track & Trace
End-to-End Traceability for Secure & Transparent Banknote Production
The Track & Trace System from Lucid Imaging delivers complete, end-to-end visibility across the banknote production lifecycle. By digitally tracking materials and processes from security paper to finished notes, it ensures maximum transparency, control, and compliance in high-security printing environments.
Solution Overview
Complete Workflow Tracking with Centralized Monitoring and Verification
The Track & Trace System is a comprehensive digital traceability solution designed specifically for security printing and banknote manufacturing. It starts with a variable data printing at the initial stage of production with automated scanning and verification at multiple checkpoints throughout the process.
By consolidating all inspection and production data into a centralized business intelligence dashboard, the system provides real-time insights into material flow, process status, inventory status and production performance enabling informed decision-making and rapid issue resolution.
Where This Solution Is Used
The system is deployed across the entire banknote production workflow, including:
- Security paper manufacturing
- Offset printing stage
- Intaglio printing stage
- Numbering and personalization stages
- Finishing, sorting, and dispatch
Multiple data collection points ensure uninterrupted tracking from raw substrate to finished banknotes.
