In the pharmaceutical industry, special requirements and strictures usually apply with regard to product tracking. These include:

  • Increasing quantities of small products, so-called micro batches, require a highly flexible and at the same time efficient and reliable reading process
  • Optimisation of productivity and increase in such micro-batches, in particular processes such as set-up times, format changes and cleaning
