つまり、各コンテナ2の側面に付設されたQRコード13で表されるプリフォーム情報は、例えば、製造元、製造年月日、製造時間、製造連番号、製造数量などの各ロットの情報で、この情報が、コンテナ2の搬送及びプリフォーム1の搬送に伴って、各プリフォーム情報一時保管手段18にリレー式に受け渡され、最後に、ブロー成型機6により成形される樹脂製ボトル23に関連付けられ、記憶手段24に保管される。
従って、成形された樹脂製ボトル23に不備な点が発見されれば、そのボトル23に関連付けて記憶手段24に保管されたプリフォーム情報を引き出せば、プリフォーム製造時の状況を遡って調べて、原因追求ができる。
更に、成型された樹脂製ボトルとプリフォーム情報とが関連付けされるので、樹脂製ボトルの更なる品質向上のために、プリフォーム情報を活用することができる。
尚、記憶手段24には、コンテナ2の受入時の日時や、どの搬送ラインを通って、どの生産ライン(ボトル製造ラインの他、ボトルへの液体充填ライン等)に供給されたかを同時に記憶してあれば、ボトル詰め液体製品の品質管理に役立てることができる。
That is, the preform information represented by the QR code 13 attached to the side surface of each container 2 is, for example, information on each lot such as a manufacturer, a manufacturing date, a manufacturing time, a manufacturing serial number, and a manufacturing quantity. The information is relayed to each preform information temporary storage means 18 as the container 2 is transported and the preform 1 is transported, and finally associated with the resin bottle 23 formed by the blow molding machine 6. And stored in the storage means 24.
Therefore, if an incomplete point is found in the molded resin bottle 23, the preform information stored in the storage means 24 in association with the bottle 23 can be retrieved, and the situation at the time of preform manufacture can be traced back. The cause can be pursued.
Furthermore, since the molded resin bottle and the preform information are associated with each other, the preform information can be used to further improve the quality of the resin bottle.
The storage means 24 simultaneously stores the date and time when the container 2 is received, and which production line (through the bottle production line, the liquid filling line to the bottle, etc.) is supplied through which conveyance line. If so, it can be used for quality control of bottled liquid products.
