Designed for managers, production operators, and others manufacturing professionals for whom quality is a primary concern, ten new infographics work to match solutions to the kinds of problems faced by those in general manufacturing, bulk chemical manufacturing, pharmaceutical manufacturing and food production.

Infographic viewers are also invited to download a free white paper or webinar related to the topic to help them gain greater insight into proposed production possibilities. In several cases, they are introduced to real-world examples of situations in which those solutions created significantly improved process consistency and product quality.

The Top 5 Ways to Cheat a Truck Scale - It's easier than you might think to cheat a truck scale. There are a number of simple tricks fraudsters use that can cost you thousands of dollars in lost profits if undetected. This infographic explains the top cheats so you can combat them.

Accurate Enough? - Even if your truck scale is certified legal for trade, it might not be accurate enough for you. Legal accuracy tolerances allow more weighing error than most scale owners realize. Businesses give away entire truckloads of goods each year due to scale errors that are within legal range. This infographic explains this concept and how to get exceptional accuracy from your truck scale.

5 Contamination Hot Spots - GMP guidelines clearly specify that equipment must be easy to clean and explain how the cleaning effectiveness should be assessed. Equipment designed according to sanitary standards reduces the risk of cross-contamination and improves cleaning efficiency. This infographic shows both high and low hygienic design risks to drive the point home.

Top 5 Mistakes in the Dispensing Room - The correct design and set up of a dispensing station can reduce error sources significantly and improve the workflow efficiency of weighing tasks. This infographic explains the causes of the top quality issues in dispensing.

Weighing Process Validation - Understanding and controlling the sources and impact of variation on product attributes is the goal of the validation process. Newly revised guidelines place considerable emphasis on this task. The infographic shows the key topics for pharma process validation.

Manual Checkweighing and Portioning: Which Approach Helps You Increase Efficiency? - The right method for manual checkweighing leads to higher throughput rates and reduced employee downtime. This infographic helps you determine which method is best for your process.

5 Steps to Manage Quality in a Regulated Environment - Good Weighing Practice™ (GWP®) offers a Successful End-to-End Weighing Data Integration - Designing a stand-alone batch-control solution requires careful selection of components to fulfill unique process requirements. This infographic shares the key questions to ask when designing the best batch-control system for your needs.

Top 5 Questions to Ask for a Better Batching System - Designing a stand-alone batch-control solution requires careful selection of components to fulfill unique process requirements. This infographic explains the considerations you should make when designing a batching system.

Sample ManagementSample management systems include sample storage devices such as freezers and plate storers, sample environment enclosures and sample organization, retrieval and sorter systems. Useful system features include high-throughput, automation, robotic arms, automated liquid handling and associated database systems. Accessories in sample management include barcode scanners, heat sealers and tubes.Process ChemistryProcess chemistry is an important stage of drug development for scaling-up drug production or chemical synthesis reactions. It is useful for optimizing economical and efficient drug production. Process chemistry uses reactors and pump systems as well as reagents, standards and buffers.Biopharmaceutical AdvancesBiopharmaceutical advances follow the development of pharmaceuticals derived from biotechnology, also known as biotechnology medicines. Biopharmaceuticals may be produced from cell lines, plants, or microbial cells. Important considerations of biopharmaceutical use include application, cost, production process and purification.Food and Beverage AnalyzersFood and Beverage Analyzers are commonly used to provide information about the chemical composition, structure and physical properties of food materials.Food and Beverage ProcessingFood and Beverage Processing involves the preparation of food products for further analysis. Typical instrumentation includes blanchers, color sorters, cookers, grinders, and refrigeration. These are used to replicate the processes commonly used in the commercial preparation of food and beverages.RegulatoryPharmaceutical regulations impact on all areas of drug development, manufacture and control and supply. Services are provided from the early stages of drug development and clinical trials through to dossier submission, approval and marketing. Regulatory also includes submission of analytical studies from the pharmaceutical product and safety. Scale-upScale-Up is generally defined as the process of transferring the results of the discovery phases of the drug discovery process, obtained on a laboratory scale, to the pilot plant and finally to production scale. Scale-Up uses reactors and pump systems as well as reagents, standards and buffers. Often Scale-Up is provided as a service by Contract Manufacturing Organizations (CMOs). Bioprocessing / FermentationBioprocessing is the use of biological materials to perform commercial, scientific or medical research processes. Biological materials used include cells, enzymes and organisms. Usually bioprocessing requires a batch or continuous bioreactor such as a fermentor or cell culture system. The advantages of using a reactor include high productivity, easy configuration, adjustable values and automation.Quality ControlQuality control is needed in all production processes. Quality control is a monitoring procedure or set of procedures that are put in place to ensure that a manufactured product adheres to a defined set of quality criteria. Chemical Process AnalysisPharmaceuticalsPharmaceuticals are medicinal drugs used in healthcare to diagnose, prevent, cure and treat illnesses. Pharmaceuticals that are excreted after use appear in wastewater and can have detrimental effects on the environment.Food QualityFood quality refers to the attributes of food that influence its safety, nutrition, and taste. Monitoring and ensuring food quality are essential in production to meet health regulations and consumer expectations. Techniques like spectroscopy, chromatography, and microbial testing are used to assess food properties and detect contaminants. Browse our peer-reviewed product directory to find food quality testing solutions; compare products, check reviews, and get pricing directly from manufacturers.Contamination PreventionContamination prevention aims to control and minimize the risk of contamination during experiments. Biological safety cabinets and sterilization equipment are examples of technologies used to prevent contamination.Method ValidationMethod validation is the process used to prove that the analytical procedure used for a particular test is capable of providing suitable data.High ThroughputHigh throughput experiments allow the simultaneous processing of several samples. This parallelization reduces the cost per experiment and increases reproducibility and output volume of data.
