Manufacturing services for the pharmaceutical industry

A dependable, expert service partner can ensure manufacturing continuity and efficient maintenance

Services for continuity in pharmaceutical manufacturing

Pharma manufacturing services must enable plant operators to locate the balance between optimal maintenance and maximal productivity. Unforeseen shutdowns due to inadequate maintenance not only result in costly downtime, they can create drug shortages that significantly impact public health. Conversely, unnecessary maintenance can generate additional costs. Our pharmaceutical manufacturing services enable risk-based maintenance strategies for targeted calibration and maximal availability.

Installed base analysis

Instruments are critical to reliable plant operation and yet are often not included in plant maintenance plans. Age and obsolescence can lead to reduced plant performance and availability, furthermore as production complexity increases, balancing maintenance efforts becomes a continual challenge for plant operators.

Our expertise in the field

Our installed base analysis sets the foundation of your maintenance routine, identifying critical assets upfront and providing key information for optimal decision making, and insights on how to improve process availability and minimize downtime risks.

Improved calibration intervals

Measuring instruments are increasingly reliable, nevertheless rarely is this reflected in calibration interval specifications, leading both to inefficiencies and increased risks due to frequent manual interference.

Our expertise in the field

By determining calibration intervals dynamically based on the results of past calibrations and statistical methods, Endress+Hauser can extend intervals, predict failures and increase reliability.

  • Extend calibration intervals with confidence
  • Predict instrument failures to avoid unplanned shutdowns
  • Sustain plant availability
