ABSTRACT:
A transportable apparatus, or a pod carrier, is disclosed in conjunction with a standardized mechanical interface system (SMIF) whereby the tracking of transported articles is made easier and more reliable. This is accomplished by affixing a card-holder to the pod carrier. The card-holder can hold the process run-cards snugly, or otherwise, at all times in such a way that the cards are visible and amenable to expeditious processing. It is shown that by extending the function of a pod carrier to a tracking device as well, the probability of lost run-cards and the concomitant lost time in the manufacturing line, and/or missteps in the processing of parts are reduced.
