Continuous Processing Lines for Pharma
A Continuous process is a process where raw materials are continuously fed into a system at the same time as finished product is continuously removed at the end of the process train. The raw materials are processed in very small quantities, compared to batch processes, and in a controlled manner, which allows the operator to have consistent control over the critical process parameters and therefore the critical product quality attributes.
At GEA, we believe that continuous processing improves the quality of pharmaceutical end products: by focusing on quality during the whole product lifecycle, not just “tested in” quality; and by understanding the capability of your processes, managing sources of variability and decreasing any associated risks.
Our solution for continuous drying and particle processing plants is ConsiGma®, a 6 sigma-inspired manufacturing platform, incorporating different technologies to produce oral solid dosage forms in a continuous, cost-efficient way:
- by collecting more information during R&D phase, in a short time with less product
- by excluding risky, time- and product consuming scale-up exercises
- by introducing online measurement and closed loop control targeting real-time release (6 sigma production)
- by incorporating flexible batch size (JIT production), reducing inventory
- by reducing the energy cost per tablet, reducing environmental impact.

Modernes Herdenmanagement: Eine klügere Art zu wirtschaften
In einer Milchviehherde hat jede Kuh ihre eigene Geschichte - und moderne Herdenmanagement-Tools helfen, diese zu erzählen. Durch die Erfassung von Indikatoren zum Gesundheitsstatus, zum Tierverhalten und Leistungsstand ermöglichen diese intelligenten Systeme den Landwirten, die Tiere optimal zu versorgen, die Herde effizienter zu managen und hochwertige Milch zu produzieren. Das ist das Geheimnis vitaler Herden und erfolgreicher, nachhaltiger Milchviehhaltung.
Lebensmittel für die Zukunft: Die Power der Gefriertrocknung
Die Vermeidung von Verschwendung ist uns bei GEA wichtig, und durch die Nutzung der Leistungsfähigkeit der Gefriertrocknungstechnologie können wir überschüssige Nahrungsmittel in wertvolle, haltbare Produkte umwandeln – und so dazu beitragen, Abfallmengen zu reduzieren, die Lagerfähigkeit zu verlängern und eine nachhaltigere Lebensmittelversorgung für künftige Generationen zu schaffen.
