SKANalytix tests ensure Stäubli’s Pharma Robotics compliance.
Application:
The pharmaceutical industry is undergoing a transformation towards automation, driven by the need for improved hygiene, safety and productivity. To meet the stringent requirements pertaining to aseptic manufacturing conditions, Stäubli Robotics has partnered with SKAN to develop robots that fulfil the industry’s demands.
Our Solution:
Stäubli and SKAN have collaborated to enhance the design of Stäubli’s robots, ensuring they are suitable for aseptic environments. Leveraging SKANalytix‘s analytical services, the robots undergo rigorous testing to evaluate factors such as cleanability, resistance to chemicals and microorganisms, adsorption and desorption kinetics, particle emissions, surface roughness and seal tightness. By incorporating the insights gained from these tests, Stäubli has improved the robots’ design, resulting in smooth, cleanable surfaces and enhanced decontamination capabilities.
Outcome:
This collaboration between Stäubli and SKAN offers pharmaceutical companies a valuable solution for automating aseptic processes, with transparent and documented proof of the robots’ performance in maintaining cleanliness and safety standards.

Clean addresses the question “How clean does the production line need to be to prevent any risks that could potentially arise from contamination?”.
“It is commonly understood that risk is defined as the combination of the probability of occurrence of harm and the severity of that harm.”
and further on “The ability to detect the harm (detectability) also factors in the estimation of risk.”
SKAN offers the clean service portfolio to strongly support our customers in developing effective cleaning strategies and ultimately to prevent harm to the patient.

In the life science industry, the importance of choosing materials that can stand up to repeated exposure to harsh chemicals is becoming more and more important.
Do you need to check whether your products and product packaging are resistant to different chemical agents?
Do you want to know how your products, product packaging, or the materials chosen to manufacture them will perform when subjected to different factors during production that could affect their final properties?
We check whether your materials are resistant to the chemicals, liquids and gases that will affect them later in the production process and entire product life cycle.

Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) has become indispensable for solving modern flow dynamics problems. The scope of analytical solutions to the fundamental equations of fluid mechanics is limited, and when complex geometries are encountered, experts must rely on numerical methods.
CFD provides a reliable and quick tool, generating key insights to maximize process safety. To ensure the safety of Grade A/B facilities, regular monitoring and risk assessment are necessary. Also, by following Annex 1; 9.4 guidance as a powerful indication for regular monitoring and risk assessment in Grade A/B, we rely on CFD to visualize air circulation.
