Through a collaborative partnership,
GEA Pharma Systems, Siemens and
Perceptive Engineering have developed
a comprehensive Real Time Platform for
model-based monitoring, controlling and
reporting system performance for GEA
ConsiGma TM manufacturing equipment.
Based on the Siemens SIPAT TM PAT
Management System (PMS) and Perceptive’s
PharmaMV TM Advanced Process Control
platform, the system has been developed to
provide:
•
•
•
SIPAT integration including calculation
engine for Real time Multivariate
Calibration Models and data export
using SIPAT data miner.
Model Development and Maintenance
facilities for Calibration, Control and
MVA models.
Real Time Quality monitoring using
Univariate SPC and Multivariate SPC for
Continuous Process Verification

Advanced Process Control solution for
precise control of key processing stages
(granulation, drying, compression).

PAT Management System
SIMATIC SIPAT can be combined with
different analytical devices and provides
comprehensive functions for the
configuration and control of measuring
devices.
SIMATIC SIPAT collects all device data and
controls the performance of the devices.
The user benefits from a uniform interface
for different analytical devices, for example,
through easier training and operation.
Data Collection
SIPAT can be used in combination with
the most popular process analysers in
production, in research and development,
and in process development.
Open industry standards are used for the
reliable measurement, collection, and
transfer of information and for exchange
with third-party systems such as process
control systems.
SIPAT also considers offline or online quality
parameters that are either collected in a
laboratory information management system
(LIMS), entered manually in the Supervisory
Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA)
system, or entered directly in SIPAT.
Data from different sources or even from
different sites can be consolidated for better
evaluation.
