FactoryTalk Batch Integration for Pharmaceutical Control System

Industry Life Sciences & Pharmaceuticals

Product/Material Handled Pharmaceutical process batches

System Deliverables

Automation of Batch Operations

A FactoryTalk Batch sequencing engine took over recipe execution and parameter handling, taking human error largely out of the equation.

HMI and System Modernization

FactoryTalk View moved from ME to SE, ThinManager came online, and PanelView displays were swapped out-centralizing client management in one clean upgrade.

Non-Invasive Implementation

The FactoryTalk Batch integration happened around ongoing commissioning-existing PLC code and equipment stayed untouched throughout.

Results in Action

Improved Process Reliability

Automated control took the variability out of recipe execution, so every batch runs the same way, every time.

Enhanced Data Capture

Batch records, electronic signatures, and reports give teams the documentation they need for compliance and validation-without the manual scramble.

Maximized Equipment Utilization

Automated procedures, CIP cycles, and eProcedure prompts smoothed out operations and helped speed up commissioning and validation timelines.

  • The batch engine is responsible for coordinating all the activities, including the parameter value transfer and Report information capture.
