Ferring Prototypes Continuous Manufacturing with Advanced PAT and Closed-Loop Control, Potential for Dramatically Lower COGS
Ferring Pharmaceuticals, a multinational biopharmaceutical company, needed a solution that would enable faster commercialization, more cost-efficient production and reduced supply lead time while maintaining product quality in support of digitalization initiatives. The company used AspenTech’s Advanced Process Analytical Technology (PAT) solution—which includes Aspen Unscrambler™ and Aspen Process Pulse™—to address this challenge.
Read this case study to learn more about the value created by this solution.
- PAT-enabled closed-loop control ensures on-spec product quality in continuous manufacturing
- Significantly smaller footprint (continuous vs batch) saves expensive clean room space
- Real-time release testing greatly reduces delay and cost compared to offline laboratory testing
- Continuous manufacturing empowers production agility and avoids the needs for equipment scaleup
