Biotechnology, pharmaceutical manufacturing, and process automation sectors require highly specialized control systems to meet regulatory standards and ensure scalable production. Eckelmann will present its customized control system solutions for complete plants at INTERPHEX, taking place at the Javits Center in New York from April 21 to 23, Booth 2863.
With over 15 years of experience, the company provides end-to-end automation solutions covering manufacturing, parameterization, testing, and commissioning. These systems are designed for applications including mobile bioreactors, filtration systems, and fully integrated pharmaceutical production facilities.
Control Systems for Large-Scale RNA Production
A recent case study highlights a control system developed for a contract manufacturer in the biotechnology and pharmaceutical sector, supporting the construction of a large-scale production facility for RNA-based active pharmaceutical ingredients. This segment represents a rapidly growing area in biopharmaceutical manufacturing, requiring precise process control and validation.
The entire facility is equipped with Eckelmann control systems, enabling coordinated operation across multiple process stages. These include dosing, mixing, conveying, filling, and packaging, all monitored and analyzed through integrated software platforms.
Integrated Hardware and Software Development
Eckelmann provides comprehensive development services that combine control cabinet engineering, electronic hardware integration, and pneumatic system installation. These are complemented by system testing and commissioning, ensuring alignment with process requirements and regulatory standards.
The ability to deliver hardware and software from a single source supports consistent system integration and reduces interface complexity. This approach is particularly relevant in regulated environments where validation and documentation are critical.
Supporting Scalable and Flexible Production
The control systems are designed to support production scalability and flexibility, enabling manufacturers to adjust capacity and process configurations as demand evolves. This is essential for biopharmaceutical applications, where production volumes and product types can vary significantly.
Supplier management services, including audits and production part approval processes, are integrated into the offering to streamline procurement and ensure component compliance across international supply chains.
Contract Manufacturing and Lifecycle Services
Eckelmann’s service portfolio includes contract manufacturing (CMO) and contract development and manufacturing (CDMO), with options that extend to testing and process development. These services are supported by lifecycle management and digital monitoring tools, enabling continuous optimization of production systems.
FactoryWare® Solutions are deployed in over 1,000 applications worldwide, supporting automated processes from development through to final packaging. Analytical tools within the platform enable real-time monitoring and performance evaluation.
Compliance with Industry Standards
Operating in regulated environments, Eckelmann aligns its solutions with international standards and certifications, including ISO 9001, ISO 13485 for medical technology, and DIN EN 62304 for medical device software. The systems are also developed in accordance with GMP and GAMP 5 guidelines, ensuring compliance in pharmaceutical production.
Electrical systems are manufactured to meet CE, UL, and UKCA requirements, supporting global deployment across Europe, the United States, and China. This regulatory alignment is essential for ensuring product quality, traceability, and approval in international markets.
