You have no idea what’s coming up on the road ahead. There could be one or more deer standing in the middle of the road. There might be a massive pothole right where your wheels will...
How Predictive Quality Analytics Increased Battery Cell Manufacturing Yield By 16%
Manufacturing battery cells for electric cars is challenging. That's because production yield is typically low, the final quality validation requires a long test period, and the overall process is costly. This article explains how predictive quality analytics increased production yield by 16% for battery cells. Elisa Smart Factory team conducted...
Continuous Pharmaceutical Manufacturing Case Study
Continuous manufacturing enables pharmaceutical companies to improve product quality, reduce medicine shortages, and increase efficiency. But, the transition from batch processing is difficult. For this purpose, this case study explains how a global pharmaceutical company started its transition process from batch-based processes to continuous...
