Your processes are subject to increasing demands in terms of productivity and qualification requiring an upgrade of equipment:
- Performance is no longer adequate or is compromising the current process, there might be the need to reduce mixing time, improve the heat transfer, increase oxygenation or minimize product losses,
- You want to broaden the existing functionalities, improve hygiene and sterility, or simplify routine maintenance
- Product quality has to be improved (minimising shear effects or product aeration for example),
- You find maintenance costs have increased, there is a lack of in-house skilled personnel or some spare parts have become hard to source,
- You meet some non-compliance issues with safety regulations
- You have difficulties in achieving satisfactory clean-in-place, or meet sterilisation contamination issues
- Existing control systems have become problematic or obsolete
