Abstract
In public, the topic of traceability is mainly considered from the point of view of legal regulations, standards and guidelines. In the increasingly globally networked world of production, however, this "traceability" also serves to safeguard production and reliably detect product counterfeits. Only the complete traceability of products, semi-finished products and raw materials enables the comprehensive monitoring and control of globalized flows of goods. Artificially applied object markings are only suitable for this task to a limited extent, since they cannot remain permanently and undamaged on the object. Even optically detected "natural" features of the surface can only be used to the extent that the surface of the component is heavily modified by a processing step (e.g. forming or painting).
