New EQUIPMENT ASSESSMENT SERVICES

What’s included?

SmartSkin’s FAT/SAT services allow you to leverage our innovative drone sensors, Quantifeel™ software, and manufacturing expertise to assess the damaging forces across your machines and resolve issues at the earliest stages of commissioning.

Benefit during SAT to quickly troubleshoot issues, accelerate qualification, and establish optimal equipment settings.

Or, contract our services for FAT to identify issues while your equipment is still at the OEM’s facility. Re-assess during SAT to confirm setup and fine-tune machine settings.

SmartSkin expert on-site for 2-days*

Our team consists of machinery, production, and manufacturing experts from the pharmaceutical industry who will support you through the container handling assessment process during your FAT and/or SAT.

Typically, equipment can be assessed and optimized within 1-2 days, however, we are happy to support longer projects as needed so you can ensure that your equipment is performing at its best before the next stage of commissioning.

Sensor drones

Our Technicians come prepared with our patented SmartSkin drones designed to match the exact shape and size of your vials, cartridges, syringes, or ampoules.

Get an accurate representation of what your products will experience during production – from sidewall pressure and shock, to tilt, spin, and rotation, or top load and sealing forces for vials and cartridges.

Standard sizes are available within 1-2 weeks. Custom sizes/formats can be available within 3-4 weeks.

Access to Quantifeel software

Along with the required sensor drones, SmartSkin Technicians will come prepared with a tablet and our Quantifeel™ software to capture the data in real-time.

Get a complete visualization of the damaging forces, pinpoint areas of concern, resolve issues, and establish optimal equipment settings to prevent product damage.

On-the-spot troubleshooting

During the assessment, we will run the drone(s) through your equipment under a variety of conditions to identify immediate issues and areas of concern.

With machinery and equipment expertise, our Technicians will help you troubleshoot issues on the spot and re-run the drones to confirm that issues have been resolved.

Complete assessment report

After all issues have been resolved and your equipment is set up for optimal performance, baselines are established for key force parameters.

The Assessment Report will detail all issues addressed during the on-site assessment, high-risk areas identified and troubleshooting measures taken, as well as baseline data and control charts that can be used for reference during future troubleshooting and optimization projects.

If you decide to implement SmartSkin’s technology on-site after commissioning for regular troubleshooting and to confirm proper setup during changeovers and maintenance, 50% of the service fees paid will be allocated towards an annual subscription*.

*Annual subscription must be purchased within 60 days of the services provided to receive the discount equal to 50% of the service fees paid.
