Process Analytical Technology (PAT): Maximum efficiency through real-time monitoring and optimization of production processes
PAT enables direct monitoring and analysis of processes, as well as quality assurance of intermediate and final products in production facilities. It can be applied in all production phases and allows for remote transmission and evaluation of process information, even under extreme environmental conditions. To ensure continuous real-time data evaluation, specialized immersion probes and measurement cells are ideal. PAT enables continuous real time monitoring and long-term optimized process management.
