Feel like the traceability of those things would be really good. Maybe I'm giving them too much credit.

- fransje26 3y agoIt is really good. That's how they found out.
- rbanffy 3y agoI worked in one, and currently work in another, company that makes such tracking tools and I can say that we keep track of a lot of things, from tobacco to the screws that hold the turbine blades. Everything is tracked.
- mulmen 3y agoWhy and how do you track tobacco? Is that a typo?

- hef19898 3y agoNever worked on stuff getting into peoples boddies, but the reason propably is that yes, people inhale it. Hence the tracking, after all chips have lot numbers printed on the packaging.
- sumtechguy 3y agoFor food items it is usually in case something is wrong with it making people sick they can issue a recall.

- fransje26 3y agoThe time-on-wing before overhaul advertised for the CFM56 is 10'000 hours. Now, take your car, drive it for that long at 50 kph, and you come out at 500'000 km (or 312'500 miles, if that's how you tick.) before major components need inspecting and/or changing. That's how good the parts are, and how well the traceability of those parts is working.
- ChrisRR 3y agoTraceability always has its blind spots. Even in my experience in medical devices there's been issues with manufacturers who swap components out for what they considered to be equivalent components, and sensor manufacturers that change their components without informing the customers because they considered the functionality to be identical (spoilers, it wasn't)
