The green tag
you can query.
A magnet-mounted e-ink tag that tells every operator, supervisor and auditor whether this machine is cleared to run — and keeps the record that proves it.
The green card is still paper.
Set-up verification is required by every automotive and aerospace quality standard. The evidence lives in a binder.
Today
- Inspector signs a paper card.Initials, date, part number. It goes in a sleeve on the machine, or a binder in the office.
- The machine sits idle over a weekend.Nobody knows exactly when. Monday's first part runs on Friday's approval.
- Wrong tote at the wrong machine.Nobody checks the routing tag against the approved job. Final inspection finds it.
- The auditor asks for the record.Forty minutes of searching. One finding.
On Haratag
- Inspector taps a badge.The tag turns green with the part, revision, operation, inspector and expiry on the screen.
- The tag notices the idle.Built-in motion sensing. Past the threshold it turns yellow until someone re-verifies.
- Scan the routing tag.Wrong part for what was approved here: the tag turns red before a single part runs.
- The record already exists.Every state change is in a tamper-evident log. Export it. Done.
Three colours. No ambiguity.
Readable from across the aisle. Unchanged by a power cut. Explained by a tap.
Magnet it to the machine. That is the install.
No wiring, no electrician, no work order. Wi-Fi from the plant network or a supplied router.
Stick it on
Six magnets hold it to any steel surface. Tags ship pre-registered to the plant.
Scan the job in
Press SCAN and show the routing tag. Part, operation, heat lot and quantity load. A new job turns it yellow: awaiting first piece.
Tap to sign off
CALL brings QA. The inspector checks the first piece and taps a badge on the screen. Uncertified operator? It refuses.
Green, with a record
The tag shows who, what, when and until-when. The plant dashboard and audit export see the same thing.
One tag, every “at the machine” clause.
What the standards ask for at the point of use, and what the tag does about it.
| Clause | Requirement | On Haratag |
|---|---|---|
| IATF 8.5.1.3 · ISO 9001 8.6 | Verification of job set-ups; first-off / last-off; release records | First-piece record turns the tag green with an expiry; “job complete” prompts last-off |
| IATF 8.5.1.4 | Verification after shutdown | Motion sensing detects idle past the threshold; yellow until re-verified; restarts without sign-off are logged |
| ISO 9001 7.1.5 · IATF 7.1.5.1.1 | Calibrated measuring equipment at point of use | Tap each gauge on the tag so the record shows what measured the first piece; an assigned gauge due for calibration turns the tag yellow |
| IATF 8.5.1.1 · 8.5.6 | Current control plan and work instruction at the machine | Tag shows the CP and WI revision; a new release turns it yellow until the operator acknowledges |
| IATF 7.2.1 · 7.2.3 | Operator competence for the operation | Badge tap: certified or not; supervisor override is recorded |
| IATF 8.5.1.5 | Total productive maintenance | “PM due in 4 d” on the display; overdue turns it yellow |
| CQI-8 · customer-specific | Layered process audits | “LPA due today”; a supervisor badge tap completes it, timestamped |
| AS9100 · ISO 13485 | Environmental conditions for inspection | Temperature and humidity logged per machine on every wake |
Nothing on the tag an auditor could object to.
Haratag is designed for shops with defense and export-controlled work. The tag holds no drawings, no controlled data, no customer names — only the state of the machine and the identity of the record.
NO CUINo controlled data leaves the server.The tag displays a status and a record ID. The record stays in your environment.SIGNEDSigned firmware, secure boot.Every update is signed; the tag refuses anything else.PER-TAGOne certificate per tag.Mutual TLS to the plant service. A lost tag is revoked, not reprogrammed.LEDGERTamper-evident record.Every state change is chained. Edit one and the chain says so.ENCLAVECloud, GovCloud or on-prem.Deployment options for ITAR data-residency and US-person support.

Agree the machines, installation, training and success measures before the pilot starts. Measure first-piece recording, approval delays and record retrieval on your floor, then review whether to roll out.
