The part with serial number allows for each produced unit to be traceable throughout its life. If the part was not serial traceable before and now it becomes serial-traceable, it means you have changed a function. There might be places where you cannot put a label, but in most cases you will find a spot where you can apply the label/marking.Ĭonclusion: fit is not likely to be impacted Function If, however you need a different label, it requires a change to the Bill of Material, and it needs to be positioned on the part.Ĭonclusion: there might be an impact to the form depending on the actual situation FitĪdding a label or marking does not typically impact the fit. It just will contain a bit more information. Hence it does not require a change to the form because you already have the label. It can be that you have a generic label for non-serialized and serialized parts. Serial numbers require a label or marking or an RFID label on the part. Let’s break this down using Form, Fit and Function: Form So going from a Part that is not serialized to a serialized part. I recently was asked if changing the level of traceability of a part requires a new Part number. ![]()
