You're under pressure
to improve production and continue cutting costs. The FDA's
new guidance on cGMPs and Process Analytical Technology (PAT) offers
opportunities for innovation, but such significant changes must be
managed carefully. How can you achieve operational excellence
while staying within resource, manufacturing, and compliance
constraints? Traditional process automation offers only
limited capabilities for improvement. Our
PlantWeb digital
plant architecture, on the other hand, has proven its ability to
significantly increase efficiency -- especially when combined with
Emerson's OpX services to help you identify and take full advantage
of improvement opportunities.
These opportunities include...
-
 Better quality. Increase right-first-time
results — for paperwork as well as products — with real-time
process and analytical data, improved control, and automatic
documentation.
- Improved throughput. Improve
yield, repeatability, and cycle times with better end-of-batch
prediction, automated sequencing, and more efficient work flow.
- Greater availability. Find
hidden capacity by reducing both planned and unplanned maintenance,
as well as calibration, cleaning, and changeover times, and by
avoiding documentation delays.
- More
productive operations and maintenance. Give operators
and maintenance technicians the tools and information they
need to work more efficiently and keep things running
smoothly without costly, time-consuming variances.
-
Streamlined safety, health, and environmental compliance.
Reduce effort needed to manage SOPs and compliance
documentation.
- Lower utility costs.
Cut costs for electricity, steam, WFI, and other utilities by
increasing process efficiency and equipment utilization.
- Less waste. Avoid
wasted labor, material, energy, and inventory costs — not to
mention lost profits — for bad batches and bad paperwork.
Performance you can count on
These opportunities build on the performance and reliability that
Emerson valves, instruments, and systems have long been known for,
such as transmitters with guaranteed 5-year "set and forget"
calibration.
And because you can't afford to lose a batch, PlantWeb's
predictive intelligence constantly
monitors device and process conditions to detect potential problems,
so you can take corrective action before quality or uptime is
affected.
Flexibility when you need it
Designed to handle multi-product and multi-stream operations, the
DeltaV process automation system and MES solutions can also automate
cleaning and other changeover operations...quickly, correctly, and
consistently. DeltaV also supports "generic" recipe structures
that make it easy to bring new products online.
Less paper. More efficiency.
Compliance Suite software automates and integrates compliance
information throughout the manufacturing process, including operator
instructions, lab results, batch-end reports, and more.
By guiding and automatically recording each step in the
manufacturing process, this powerful but easy-to-use tool can
enforce consistent "best practice" production while eliminating
manual checking, collecting, and re-checking of paperwork.
