The BIC will be introduced step by step across all product groups.
Depending on the product, it can be found in the following places:
• on the packaging unit
• directly on the product (if space suffices)
• on the packaging unit and the product
The BIC is machine-readable and contains information that can also be used by the customer for handling
and product management.
Each piece of information can be uniquely identified using the so-called data identifier
(ANSI MH10.8.2-2016). The data identifier is followed by a character string. Both together have a maximum
length according to the table below. If the information is shorter, spaces are added to it.
Following information is possible, positions 1 to 4 are always present, the other according to need of
production:
Posi- Type of

1 Beckhoff order

2 Beckhoff Traceability

3 Article description
4 Quantity
5 Batch number
6 ID/serial number
7 Variant number

Further types of information and data identifiers are used by Beckhoff and serve internal processes.
