Adents, Siemens Team on Serialization Solution

Siemens and ADENTS develop joint solution for drug serialization challenges.

Technology equipment provider Siemens has teamed up with Adents, a provider of serialisation and track-and-trace software solutions, to develop a combined hardware and software solution providing drug manufacturers with item-level serialization capabilities, an Adents press statement reports.

The joint offering comprises Siemens’ industrial PCs, software controllers, I/Os and camera barcode readers and Adents’ Pharma Suite software, which manages serialization parameters from a centralized server at site level (Level 3). The companies repor that the solution can easily be integrated into existing infrastructure and equipment, and can handle existing and future regulatory requirements. Unit-level track and trace rules can be modified continuously for a variety of production types.

The Siemens-Adents solution requires fewer qualification tests needed; offers exceptional performance on high speed packaging lines; and provides solution and implementation management that meet the industry quality standards, such as the GAMP5 guidelines.
