Today’s pharmaceutical industry is demanding more flexibility in manufacturing. Faced with rapidly evolving patient needs and relentless pressure to bring new drugs to market fast, companies must find ways to swiftly adapt, scale and optimize their production processes. But automation systems are traditionally rigid and expensive to change. To address this growing challenge, the manufacturing facility of the future is modular, using 'plug-and-play' technology to deliver greater versatility without increasing costs or compromising quality. In this webinar, you will find out how modular production based on this groundbreaking new standard is changing the industry for the better.
