In the manufacturing process, the presence of foreign objects in products can severely compromise quality, safety, and consumer trust.

This issue is particularly crucial for sectors like pharmaceuticals, food and beverage, and personal care, where contamination may have severe effects on people’s health.

Let’s discuss the significance of avoiding foreign objects in the packing process, look into the approaches that are used, and get an understanding of how the technologies developed by Jekson Vision play a crucial role in contributing to the preservation of product integrity.

Why Avoiding Foreign Objects is Important

Foreign objects in products can range from metal shavings, and glass fragments, to plastic pieces, bread crumbs, or even dead insects.

Their presence is not just a quality issue but a legal liability, potentially leading to recalls, financial loss, and damage to a brand’s reputation.

More importantly, for consumers, these contaminants can cause harm or illness, making it imperative for manufacturers to adopt stringent quality control measures.

To combat these challenges, companies implement various technologies and processes designed to detect and remove contaminants. and among them Vision Inspection system comes on top.

Vision Inspection Systems

Vision inspection systems use high-resolution cameras combined with artificial intelligence (AI), Deep Learning, and machine learning algorithms to inspect products on the production line.

These systems can identify inconsistencies, including foreign objects, that deviate from the standard product specifications.

Jekson Vision’s advanced vision inspection solutions offer unparalleled accuracy and speed, ensuring that only products meeting the highest quality standards reach the consumer.

In a significant development for the pharmaceutical industry, as per Public Notice 39/2023, the date for the implementation of the track and trace system for the export of drug formulations has been further extended to 01.02.2025.

This extension provides manufacturers, both Small Scale Industries and non-SSI entities, with an opportunity to refine their systems, address any challenges, and ensure seamless compliance with regulatory requirements.

Understanding Track and Trace in Drug Formulation Export

The track and trace system is a vital component of the pharmaceutical supply chain, aimed at enhancing transparency, accountability, and security in the movement of drug formulations from manufacturers to end-users.

It involves the creation of a digital trail that allows authorities to trace the entire journey of a pharmaceutical product, from its inception at the manufacturing facility to its distribution and eventual consumption.

Importance of Parent-Child Relationship in Packaging Levels

One of the key aspects of the track and trace system is the establishment and maintenance of the parent-child relationship at packaging levels.

In the context of drug formulations, this relationship refers to the connection between the primary packaging (individual units) and secondary packaging (cartons or boxes containing multiple units).

Ensuring an accurate and unbroken parent-child relationship is crucial for tracking and tracing each unit of the drug throughout the supply chain.

The parent-child relationship is established through the assignment of unique identifiers such as barcodes, QR codes, or serial numbers to individual units and their corresponding packaging.

This allows for precise monitoring, helping to prevent counterfeiting, diversion, and other illicit activities that could compromise the integrity of the pharmaceutical supply chain.

Uploading on the Central Portal

As part of the track and trace system, manufacturers are required to upload relevant information regarding their drug formulations onto a central portal.

This centralized database serves as a repository of crucial data, allowing regulatory authorities to access real-time information on the movement and status of pharmaceutical products. 

Conclusion

The extension of the track and trace system’s implementation date for the export of drug formulations, with a specific focus on maintaining the parent-child relationship at packaging levels, is a positive development for the pharmaceutical industry.

It reflects a commitment to fostering a secure and transparent supply chain, ultimately benefiting consumers by ensuring the safety and authenticity of pharmaceutical products.

Imagine a world where every product tells its story – where a simple scan unveils its journey from raw materials to your doorstep (the entire supply chain). This is what track and trace systems do, intricate networks silently safeguarding our brands and products.

But how does this invisible chain build transparency & trust? Let’s explore!

1. The Unique Identity (UID)

Every track and trace journey begins with a unique identifier. Think of it as a secret handshake between the product and the system. This identity can be a humble barcode, a sophisticated RFID chip, or even a QR code dancing on the packaging. No matter the form, it imbues the product with a voice ready to be heard.

2. The Chain of Scans

As the product moves through the supply chain, its identifier encounters a chain of scanners. These watchful eyes, stationed at key points like production lines, warehouses, distribution networks, clearing & forwarding agents, and other checkpoints, capture the product’s location and status in real time.

Each scan adds a note to the product’s symphony, composing a detailed score of its product journey.

3. The Role of Data

The collected data streams into a central hub, the central command of the track and trace system. This software organizes the information, creating a rich detailing of the product’s journey. Think dates, times, locations, and even environmental conditions – a treasure trove of insights waiting to be unearthed.

4. The Power of Visibility

This is where the magic truly unfolds, empowering various stakeholders. Manufacturers gain insights into production bottlenecks, retailers optimize inventory management, and consumers bask in the warm glow of transparency. They can track their purchases, ensuring authenticity and ethical sourcing.

5. More than just tracking

The applications of track and trace extend far beyond simple product tracking. Imagine safeguarding pharmaceutical products against counterfeiting, ensuring food safety by monitoring temperature fluctuations, or even combating human trafficking by tracing the movement of people.

The possibilities are as vast as the human imagination.

As technology evolves, it promises to weave an even sturdier tapestry of traceability. Secured by decentralized ledgers, it ensures data security, further bolstering trust and transparency.

Artificial intelligence, the conductor of the future, will analyze this data with unparalleled precision, predicting bottlenecks, optimizing processes, and even anticipating potential issues before they arise.

So, the next time you scan a barcode, remember the symphony unfolding behind the scenes. It is not just about knowing where your T-shirt came from but about the impact this system has on lives, ecosystems, and the very fabric of our world.

The track and trace revolution is here, creating a narrative of transparency, trust, and a brighter future, one scan at a time.

In the highly competitive landscape of modern manufacturing, operational efficiency is the key to success. To remain competitive and profitable, manufacturers need to optimize their production processes, minimize downtime, and maximize the utilization of resources.

One essential tool that can significantly impact your bottom line is Overall Equipment Effectiveness (OEE). In this blog post, we will explore how implementing OEE in your manufacturing plant can help you achieve substantial financial benefits.

What is OEE?

Overall Equipment Effectiveness (OEE) is a comprehensive metric used to measure and improve the efficiency and effectiveness of manufacturing operations.

It was developed by Seiichi Nakajima in the 1960s and has since become a critical performance indicator for manufacturers worldwide.

OEE is calculated by multiplying three key factors:

1. Availability: The percentage of time that a machine or production line is available and operational during scheduled production hours.
2. Performance: The speed at which a machine or process is running compared to its optimal speed.
3. Quality: The rate at which good-quality products are produced in comparison to the total number of products.

One invaluable tool that can help you achieve these goals is the Overall Equipment Effectiveness (OEE) solution, and when it comes to OEE, Jekson Visions & REESMART OEE solution is a true game-changer.

In this blog post, we’ll explore how implementing REESMART in your manufacturing plant can lead to substantial financial benefits.
