NEXT: Optimizing Fill-and-Finish the smart way: How innovative solution from the beer and beverafe industry is changing the pharma industry

In recent years, data-driven technologies and intelligent solutions have become highly sought after in the pharma industry, as a means to increase efficiency and drug safety during production. Within the pharmaceutical manufacturing process itself, the goal is to optimize the filling line performance for a smoother flow and ultimately ensure that patients receive the medication they need safely and on time. So, how can pharma companies monitor what actually happens in their fill-and finish process and determine where, exactly, any disruption occurs? With the help of a smart approach, which originated in the beer and beverage industry, pharma companies can now do exactly that.These analyses performed by Smart Skin Technologies combined with decades of research by the glass experts at SCHOTT allow pharma manufacturers to identify weak points in the filling system in real time. Thus, significantly improving their operating efficiencies, while reducing waste and line maintenance expenses. Here, representatives from four leading pharma players share their experience and use cases
