Authentication Solutions for Industrial Equipment and Consumable Systems
Microtrace delivers covert authentication technologies that help industrial equipment manufacturers secure tools, components, and consumables. Our solutions deter counterfeiting, support traceability, and protect system integrity without disrupting production or performance.
Authentication Where Performance Matters
In industrial environments, unauthorized parts or consumables can lead to equipment failure, warranty claims, and safety risks. Microtrace provides scalable, field-verifiable solutions that protect your products and users without compromising fit, form, or function.
Applications include:
- Precision tools and equipment
- High-wear components and replacement parts
- Cartridges, modules, and consumables for industrial systems
- Serialized enclosures, housings, and nameplates
- Diagnostic or calibration tools
- Safety-critical systems and controls
Secure the Tool and Consumable Ecosystem
Many industrial systems rely on closed-loop performance. Microtrace enables authentication programs that restrict access to authorized components and monitor use over time.
- Authenticate proprietary cartridges, inserts, or filters
- Detect off-brand substitutions or tampering
- Enable usage tracking and service data capture
- Integrate with both connected and offline equipment
Proven Technologies for Industrial Equipment and Tools
Microtrace offers authentication technologies that protect industrial tools, components, and consumables from counterfeiting and unauthorized substitution. Our solutions combine covert taggants, durable identifiers, and intelligent detection platforms to verify authenticity and maintain system integrity throughout production and service.
Technologies can be integrated into polymers, coatings, adhesives, or fluids, and applied to metal or plastic surfaces through Implementation Methods suited to industrial manufacturing. Options include Laser Marking for permanent part identification and Tamper-Evident Labels for housings, enclosures, and access points. Solutions are specified for their material and performance environment, providing reliable verification under heat, abrasion, vibration, or chemical exposure.
