ISA model for SmartX process control system

A TURN-KEY TOOL FOR NEW AND EXISTING EQUIPMENT

Cross-Platform Compatibility

SmartX provides process operation-specific control and connectivity, without the need for extensive customisation. The highly adaptable Data Broker module allows connection to a vast range of sensor technologies, MES and data historians. Existing or new process equipment can be easily integrated, all provided and configured by Innopharma Technology, without the need for third-party systems integrators.

INSIGHTS AND AUTOMATION TO MAXIMISE RELIABILITY

Process Dashboard

Remotely accessible process dashboard enables rapid batch analysis, process trending, failure prediction and investigation across the organisation. Advanced Dynamic Process Control (ADPC) provides user-friendly automation, with a wide range of chainable pre-configured functions for specific process types. First-principles models are leveraged for scale and equipment independence, optimising transferability and scale-up. Simple PAT integration enables CQA-driven processing with maximum robustness to raw material changes.

Testimonials

The Eyecon is outstanding in measuring in-process particle size during the granulation and particle coating processes. We also integrated this technology into our control systems, as part of a Process Analytical Technology package desired by some of our clients.

More and more high-end Chinese pharmaceutical manufacturers are aware of and actively seeking to implement QbD principals into their manufacturing processes. Implementation of Eyecon₂ optimises FBP design and subsequently enables increased process understanding.

Arthur Rong | Vice Manager - Oral Solid Dosage | Austar

Before we had any PAT tools, the process was like a black box to us. We put something in and get something out without knowing what happened inside. Now, we have an ‘Eye’ to look inside that black box and see what’s going on in there.
