Field & Packinghouse Receiving
LotAxis begins structured lot capture the moment produce is harvested or received — whether in the field, at a cooling facility, or at your packinghouse.
Using handheld scanners and rugged touchscreen devices configured to match your workflow, teams capture grower information, field ID, harvest date, commodity, grade, and other required attributes quickly and accurately. Guided data entry reduces errors while maintaining pack-line speed.
For on-site receiving, inventory data is recorded in real time and immediately visible across the system — giving production planners, quality teams, and sales staff early insight into available product.
For field or remote collection sites, data can be transmitted via cellular connection or synchronized through Wi-Fi when connectivity is available — preserving continuity across dispersed growing regions.
Once barcoded bin, case, or pallet labels are generated, product remains linked to its original grower and field source. As produce is washed, graded, packed, repacked, or commingled, full lot lineage is maintained.
By capturing structured data at the point of intake, LotAxis reduces redundant entry throughout the packing process while providing earlier visibility, stronger traceability, and real-time location tracking from field to shipment.
PTI-Compliant Labeling & Case Marking
LotAxis delivers structured, retailer-ready label printing for fresh produce operations — supporting both in-process inventory and finished goods.
Generate bin tags, case labels, pallet tags, and customer-specific formats on demand or in batch, including full PTI and GS1-compliant labeling. Label data can include grower ID, field code, harvest date, lot number, pack date, and other required traceability attributes.
Durable, food-safe label materials are available for wet wash lines, cold storage, and refrigerated distribution environments. For high-throughput packing operations, LotAxis integrates with automated printer/applicator systems to streamline case labeling without slowing production.
Custom label formats can be configured within the platform, and professional design support is available when needed — ensuring compliance, scan reliability, and clean presentation across retail and distribution channels.
LotAxis ensures your labeling framework supports traceability, retail requirements, and operational efficiency from field to shipment.
Production & Packing Line Control
LotAxis brings structured data capture directly to the packing line — eliminating handwritten logs and significantly reducing manual entry.
Operators use guided workflows on touchscreen stations and mobile scanners configured to match your washing, grading, sizing, and packing processes. This ensures accurate lot tracking while maintaining pack-line speed and reducing training time.
Supervisors gain real-time visibility into each production line, allowing them to monitor throughput, identify bottlenecks, and adjust operations as needed.
The platform supports:
Repacking and relabeling
Mixed lot and commingling management
Pack-out and yield analysis
Real-time finished goods inventory visibility
Variable weight capture (manual entry or scale-integrated)
Fixed-weight carton automation with auto-populated label weights
From field-packed bins to finished retail cases, LotAxis preserves full lot integrity while delivering the operational insight needed to improve efficiency, protect margins, and meet retail commitments.
Cold Storage, Warehouse & Shipping Control
LotAxis delivers real-time warehouse visibility across coolers, staging areas, and distribution facilities — preserving full lot integrity as produce moves from packing to shipment.
Using mobile barcode scanners and integrated devices, carton, RPC, bin, and pallet locations are recorded and updated as inventory shifts between storage zones or is allocated to orders. Maintain traceability even when breaking down pallets, combining orders, or loading partial shipments.
Shipment workflows support loading by customer order, route, work order, or retailer program — with scan-based validation to reduce errors and prevent charge-backs.
Capture critical shipment details including trailer ID, seal number, driver information, and departure time while automatically generating:
Bills of lading
Packing lists
Manifests
All activity updates in real time, ensuring inventory control, customer service, and billing teams operate from the same accurate, current data set.
LotAxis ensures disciplined control from cold storage through dock departure — supporting retail compliance and on-time delivery performance.
Traceability & Audit Readiness
In fresh produce, end-to-end traceability is critical for food safety, retail compliance, and brand protection.
LotAxis delivers complete backward and forward lot tracking from grower and field source through washing, grading, packing, repacking, cold storage, and shipment. Maintain structured lineage at the case, pallet, or bin level — even when managing repacks, relabeling, or mixed lot scenarios.
Every transaction is recorded in real time, preserving PTI and customer-required traceability standards throughout the supply chain.
When audits occur or recall response is required, LotAxis generates comprehensive traceability and compliance reports instantly — providing clear documentation, faster response times, and confidence in your operational controls.
Yield & Pack-Out Performance
Strengthen margin control with structured yield and pack-out analysis across your packing operations.
LotAxis links harvested inputs to packed outputs, maintaining clean lot integrity from field bins through graded, sized, and packaged product. By capturing production data in real time, the system provides accurate visibility into pack-out percentages, shrink, and operational variance.
Analyze performance by:
Grower or field lot
Harvest date
Commodity or variety
Production day or shift
Packing line
Storage location or program
With disciplined yield reporting embedded into your workflow, LotAxis helps identify loss points, optimize grading performance, and support data-driven decisions that improve profitability and retail fulfillment accuracy.
Reporting & Operational Visibility
LotAxis delivers structured, real-time reporting built to support food safety compliance, retail accountability, and operational performance across fresh produce operations.
