  • Patent number: 11638373
    Abstract: In a material verification method, information of newly loaded materials in a production line is obtained. It is determined whether the information has been verified. If the information has not been verified, it is determined whether a tray supporting the newly loaded materials has been switched from use in producing a first product to use in producing a second product. If the tray supporting the newly loaded materials is not switched to use in producing the second product, the information of the newly loaded materials is presented to a user for material verification. A system for administering such method and a device applying the method are also disclosed.
