🐟 Why Seafood Cold Chain Needs Specialized Traceability

Seafood supply chains are among the most complex in food logistics: catch → landing → processing → freezing → cold storage → distribution → retail. Even minor temperature deviations can compromise high-value products such as salmon, oysters, and tuna, driving losses and eroding margins.

Industry stakeholders have identified growing pressure to enhance cold chain distribution transparency, with a call for solutions that deliver full-history data rather than relying on single-point checks.

📡 Harvest / Landing (Dockside)
   └── Catch ID tag (vessel ID, GPS location, harvest timestamp, species)
         ↓
🏭 Processing Plant Intake
   ├── XT8002B PDA scans catch tags → records intake time, batch assignment
   ├── XT8601B 6MP industrial camera → batch-reads fish/box codes (90 codes/sec)
         ↓
🔪 Processing / Fillet Line
   ├── Each fillet portion inherits original catch batch ID
   ├── XT2010 fixed scanner verifies: fillet batch matches source batch
         ↓
❄️ Freezing & Packaging
   ├── Freeze-temp labels applied (special adhesive for -20°C to -40°C)
   ├── XT2003C workstation scanner verifies label readability before cartoning
         ↓
📦 Cold Storage & Logistics
   ├── XT8002B PDA (-20°C freezer-rated) → scan QR → add logistics timestamps
   ├── XT6202GHD wireless (2.4G/BT/WiFi) for handheld mobility in cold rooms
         ↓
🛒 Retail / Consumer / Food Service
   └── Scan QR to see: harvest vessel, catch date, processing date, freeze history,冷链温度轨迹

🛠️ XTIOT Seafood Traceability Hardware

The XT8601B is purpose-built for high-speed seafood processing environments. It supports carton code aggregation, linking multiple item serials to a master carton code for packaging, shipment verification, and traceability reporting.

🔧 XT8002B – Cold Chain PDA for Frozen Seafood Warehouses

The XT8002B is a rugged Android PDA designed for cold chain logistics. It meets the requirements for harsh, wet, and often freezing cold chain environments.

🔧 XT2010 – Fixed Scanner for Processing Line Verification

For the fillet / portioning line, the XT2010 ensures every cut is correctly linked to its original catch batch.

Key function: After portioning, operator scans the fillet label. XT2010 reads the Data Matrix and sends data to traceability system, which verifies the fillet belongs to the correct catch batch.
