At Interpack 2017, Bosch Packaging Technology introduces the newly developed Xelum platform for the continuous production of oral solid dosage (OSD) forms. The platform combines dosing, mixing, granulating, and tableting in a continuous process. “Future-proof manufacturing systems must work efficiently, be user-friendly and fulfill the requirements of all pharmaceutical companies. This includes shorter development times with less API consumption, a faster transfer from development to production, more flexible batch sizes, as well as the integration of quality assurance into the process,” Fritz-Martin Scholz, product manager at Bosch Packaging Technology, explains. “These requirements, combined with Bosch’s process expertise and experience, led to the development of the Xelum platform.”
