GEA Pharma Systems integrate process engineering and PAT to provide Process Intelligence
The FDA’s PAT (process analytical technology) initiative has enabled Niro Pharma Systems to combine its equipment design skills and process engineering know-how in order to integrate online (PAT) analysers into its process systems in a way which can provide real insight into the operation of the process and help customers achieve key product quality target.
PAT for High Shear Granulation, Fluid Bed Processing and Single Pot Processing
Optical monitoring with the Lighthouse Probe™ technology
GEA Pharma Systems has joined forces with J&M GmbH to create a compact and cleanable in-process optical probe for use in powder processing equipment. The probe overcomes the traditional problem of observation windows fouling during processing.
The result is the novel Lighthouse Probe™, which can be used with a range of spectroscopic
techniques, including NIR and UV/vis, to overcome the traditional problem of product sticking to observation windows ... Read more and download
PAT for Freeze Drying
TLC® - Thermodynamic Lyophilization Control
A process analysing, monitoring and control tool for Freeze Drying in R+D applications and for full-scale production. GEA Lyophil has developed TLC as an in-line, non-invasive method of; monitoring the primary (main) drying, determining the end of the main drying, monitoring the secondary drying and determining the end of the secondary drying ...
