Nisthora for pharmaceutical manufacturing.
Granulators, tablet presses, capsule fillers, coating pans and blister lines all run in batches. Nisthora measures every machine live, ties every reading to its batch, and watches the room conditions your products depend on.
What gets in the way.
Batch is everything
Every batch must be traceable to the equipment, the shift and the conditions it was made in.
Changeover and cleaning
Line clearance and cleaning between products take a large share of the week, and must not be mistaken for breakdowns.
Conditions matter
Temperature, humidity and room pressure outside their range can put a batch at risk.
What Nisthora connects to and measures.
Machines
- Granulators and fluid-bed dryers
- Tablet presses
- Capsule filling machines
- Coating pans
- Blister packing and cartoning lines
- HVAC and room monitoring
Readings
- Tablets or capsules produced
- Run / stop signal
- Rejected units
- Compression force and turret speed
- Room temperature, humidity and differential pressure
- Dryer inlet and outlet temperature
Typical stop reasons
- Line clearance
- Product changeover
- Cleaning
- Punch or tooling change
- Waiting for QA release
- Material shortage
These are common examples. Each plant names its own machines and lines, and sets up its own stop reasons, in the words its team uses.
Batch records, backed by machine data
In pharma, the batch record is central. Nisthora links every batch to the machines it ran on, the shift, every stop and every reading during the run, including room conditions. We work with your quality team on the validation needs of your site, such as audit trail and electronic signature requirements.
A day with Nisthora
A tablet line marks Line clearance and Cleaning as planned stops. The humidity in the compression room is watched with an alert limit. When it drifts, the supervisor is told at once, and the batch record shows exactly which batch was running and for how long.
