Pharmaceuticals
A highly regulated sector such as the pharmaceutical industry requires GMP-compliant equipment. The range on show at POWTECH TECHNOPHARM fulfils the highest standards of hygiene and reliability.
Pharmaceutical production is defined by hygiene and containment. This highly regulated sector also needs to meet strict directives: for example, those regulating the traceability of raw materials and products. In the pharmaceutical industry, processing equipment is generally made of stainless steel of the highest quality, because it often produces or processes very valuable and highly effective products. It is imperative to prevent cross-contamination as well as exposure of the operator to escaping dust. This sector also relies on cleaning processes that allow batch changes in compliance with the provisions of national and international regulations like GMP and FDA guidelines.
POWTECH TECHNOPHARM exhibitors specialising in pharmaceutical applications have all perfected the requisite processes. Manufacturers of tablets, effervescent tablets and capsules generally use automated bulk solids handling processes with the aid of suction conveyors and containment systems. These are complemented by extractors that ensure highly active ingredients cannot escape into the environment. Blockbuster products have completely different requirements here to specialist products produced in small batches. In addition, the formulations of pharmaceutical products often vary greatly. POWTECH TECHNOPHARM therefore offers highly diverse solutions for visitors from the pharmaceutical industry. These range from EHEDG-compliant rotary airlock feeders to complete facilities that ensure seamless documentation via a central automation system.
