QR-Based Production Tracking for Footwear Manufacturing

Euko Footwear came to Kaikor with a familiar manufacturing problem: production was moving, but quality failures were hard to trace. When a sole or component went missing, nobody could say with confidence which station was responsible.

The Problem

The challenge

Euko Footwear, a footwear manufacturer, could not reliably trace quality failures across their production line. When a sole or component was missing or defective, teams had no way to know which station caused the decline — whether it was one of three stitching stations, the PU pouring area, curing, cutting, or trimming.

Our Approach

What we built

Kaikor built a QR-based product tracking system on the Kaikor Monitoring core. Each unit is scanned at every station, creating a full production trail from raw assembly through finishing. Operators and managers can instantly see where a product declined, compare production counts against sales, identify which clients are performing well, and spot high-selling products.

The system runs on Kaikor Monitoring. Each unit carries a QR code scanned at every step of the line, so every decline is tied to a specific station.

Results

The impact

  • Station-Level Defect Attribution. Pinpoint exactly which station — stitching, PU pouring, curing, cutting, or trimming — caused a quality decline for any given unit.
  • Production vs Sales Visibility. Compare production counts against sales orders in real time to spot gaps, overproduction, and fulfilment bottlenecks.
  • Client Performance Insights. Track which clients are performing well, which orders are at risk, and where demand is concentrated across product lines.
  • Product Demand Analytics. Identify high-selling products and production trends to inform planning, inventory, and capacity decisions.
Improved production visibility and enabled data-driven planning by centralizing product tracking, quality insights, and order status in one operational system.
