The pharmaceutical equipment industry lags behind the pharmaceutical industry. How can we make progress?

[pharmaceutical Station market analysis] pharmaceutical equipment is an important means of pharmaceutical production For the pharmaceutical industry, only the equipment that meets the requirements can produce the products that meet the quality requirements In recent years, China's pharmaceutical equipment market has been expanding and the industry has been developing However, compared with the rapidly growing pharmaceutical industry, there is still a large imbalance Pharmaceutical equipment lags behind the pharmaceutical industry, which hinders the rapid development of the pharmaceutical industry In this regard, the pharmaceutical equipment industry also needs to improve technology and upgrade equipment from various aspects, so that the pace of development of the pharmaceutical equipment industry and the pharmaceutical industry are synchronized For example, for API production equipment, it is necessary to improve yield, heat transfer, mass transfer and shorten production cycle to reduce material consumption, energy consumption and pollutant emission For finished products, it is necessary to prevent product pollution and improve yield and quality Preparation processing equipment is mainly to prevent the pollution of drugs and production environment, and improve production efficiency and reduce energy consumption The upgrading requirements of both API production equipment and preparation processing equipment are inseparable from the processing materials of the equipment GMP clearly requires that "the surface of equipment in direct contact with drugs shall be bright and clean, flat, easy to clean or disinfect, corrosion-resistant, without chemical change or absorption of drugs" At present, the variety of materials in our country is gradually rich, the material science is constantly improving, and the metallurgical industry is also constantly developing, which provides better conditions for the development of pharmaceutical equipment industry In the past, it was difficult to select materials that could be used for both acid and alkali, so many API production equipment faced difficulties in material selection With the development of material science, new alloy materials, composite metal materials, non-metallic materials, surface coating technology and so on have opened up a broad prospect for the application of pharmaceutical equipment, and also brought new opportunities for the development of the industry At present, the main body materials of pharmaceutical equipment products, especially those in contact with drugs or pure water, are basically stainless steel materials The purpose is to prevent heavy metal pollution caused by corrosion, so as to ensure the quality of drugs and meet the needs of pharmaceutical enterprises According to the industry, materials are closely related to energy conservation and maintenance, in addition to the corrosion allowance of media, mechanical wear rate and processing ease Therefore, after the daily use of pharmaceutical equipment, we need to pay attention to the maintenance work In addition to materials, the design, selection and installation of pharmaceutical equipment should also meet the production requirements of pharmaceutical enterprises, meet the requirements of easy cleaning, disinfection or sterilization, easy production operation and maintenance, and prevent errors and reduce pollution In the past, pharmaceutical enterprises ignored pollution and errors In recent years, with the increase of environmental protection and the improvement of drug quality requirements, the design and manufacturing of pharmaceutical equipment need to meet the production requirements, but also need to improve product quality Pharmaceutical equipment enterprises must carefully understand the significance of error prevention and pollution prevention, and deeply explore the equipment structure, processing accuracy and the accuracy and reliability of metering devices, so as to implement the error prevention and pollution prevention regulations At the same time, the processing accuracy of pharmaceutical equipment (contact drug part) also needs to be improved In the past, the surface of pharmaceutical equipment was rough, with obvious welding traces, showing problems such as poor accuracy, large gap, high noise, fast temperature rise, large vibration, frequent failure, short service life of equipment, and easy to cause cross pollution At the same time, due to the low processing accuracy, the dirt accumulated in the concave and convex parts was not easy to remove, which brought great problems to pharmaceutical enterprises With the increasing requirements of pharmaceutical industry in recent years, and the fierce competition in the pharmaceutical equipment market, improving the processing accuracy of pharmaceutical equipment has become the development direction that enterprises have to strive for In addition, in the completion acceptance of pharmaceutical equipment, verification is also needed Only the equipment that meets the requirements of confirmation can be identified for operation to verify that each device can operate according to the predetermined requirements and can produce products that meet the quality requirements In recent years, pharmaceutical equipment has clear basic criteria and verification requirements, which promotes the transformation of pharmaceutical equipment industry from rough type to fine type, and drives the high-quality development of pharmaceutical equipment industry.
