Drug production
Increasing complexity in production is caused by market
differentiation of dosage forms.
An increasing number of variations in dosage forms must be
handled by existing machinery, which is the reason for smaller
batch sizes. This again leads to an increase in time-consuming
change-overs. Along with variable routing of work flows and
unbalanced capacities of single machines this finally results
in a batch-and-queue production. To address this problem a
fixed routing and customized lean methods will help raise your
production efficiency.
