The Case for Pre-Engineered Automation Systems Over approximately the last 30 years, the evolution of automated systems implemented to enable advanced manufacturing has led to the proliferation of the pre-engineered automated work cell/system. In turn, this has enabled significant growth in the global deployment of automated systems throughout all facets of global manufacturing, where virtually […]
Q: Tell us a bit about your background. A: I was born in Mexico City and grew up in South Texas. I moved to Boston to study Chemistry at Tufts University and not long after finishing, landed a role at Beckman Coulter. After a few years there, I took a role at Thermo Fisher Scientific […]

It is undeniable that automation is a powerful tool in manufacturing that can help businesses increase efficiency, reduce costs, and improve quality. It involves using various integrated technologies to automate tasks and processes that were previously done manually or by aging machinery, freeing up time and resources for more valuable activities. Given the planning and […]
Do your suppliers include project management expertise when preparing your proposal? Buying custom automation equipment can be a time-consuming activity that requires extensive planning for both cost and schedule. Often these plans are tied to business needs and impact decision-making for your company at a high level, so their accuracy is critical. Equally as critical […]
Congratulations! You have decided to automate your manufacturing processes and streamline the production of your product(s). To arrive at this point, you spent critical time and effort on justifying this investment decision. Maybe you needed a solution that would support additional production capacity to satisfy customer demand, or to launch a new product, or as […]
Few industries have quality requirements as strict as those of pharma manufacturing; every part of the process must be tightly controlled. The pharma industry faces multiple challenges, with failures in product, quality, or supply chain leading the way. With expectations that drugs will be produced faster and more cheaply, how can a manufacturer be prepared […]
Lyophilization is basically a freeze-drying process that removes water from a product after it is frozen and placed under a vacuum, producing a soft powder, sometimes referred to as a cake. If we take that process and apply it to a single droplet of liquid, we are creating a lyo ‘bead’ rather than a lyo […]
It’s tough out there and the competition is fierce, no matter what industry you’re in or what product you’re introducing to meet a need – or create one. It’s a universal rule that whoever gets to market first gets the lion’s share, so there’s plenty of pressure to make each of your 24 hours a […]
