What to expect?

Expert Talks: Our speakers will provide important insights on key topics impacting your industry also while addressing current trends and challenges in production. These informative presentations will enable you to:

  • Learn about insights into  modern contract manufacturing and facility development in Germany from Dr. Johannes Trapp Losan (CDMO), with a focus on effective pellet production processes.
  • Deepen your understanding of containment including the latest developments on flexible isolation through a presentation by expert Mike Brown from ONFAB.
  • Engage in discussions with James Scicolone from the Department of Chemical and Biochemical Engineering from Rutgers University, NJ, on the groundbreaking studies done without the use of  blenders in continuous direct compression manufacturing lines.

Understand the advantages of hot melt extrusion for pharmaceutical products and how modeling of the complete unit can help shorten and improve equipment configuration , as illustrated by Josip Matic of RCPE, Austria.

 Learn the true requirements and definitions in ATEX classifications, specifically for equipment and environment in pharmaceutical operations. 

 Observe live demonstratons of a medicinal gummy line and understand the complete process for this growing type of nutraceutical and pharmaceutical dosage form.

Key Processes of Focus

  • Automation of ingredients and system
  • Mixing, granulating, drying, milling, sieving, spheronizing, and extruding
  • Forming, coating, conveying, and material transfer
  • Homogenizing and emulsifying
  • Liquid depositing and filling

All presentations will be technical in scope and well suited for engineers, operators and plant managers who are looking to integrate and understand a variety of the latest technologies into their processes. It will educate the attendee on how to improve overall product quality and increase process yields by choosing the most accurate and innovative equipment designs available.

Event program

Subject to availability – Limited number of participants

You can choose from three bundles. The program content is the same. Only the program items are arranged differently in order to hold the lectures in small groups as far as possible. Please note that the number of group participants per group is limited. Depending on availability, we may allocate you to the next available group. Please note that we have tried to organise as many events as possible in small groups. Nevertheless, some presentations will be held in the whole group. Program subject to change.
