and Development
TECNinox Group creates integrated solutions that generate added value. Masters in the design and construction of process plants and pure fluids systems, in which the automation supplied by the partner ERsistemi is a tangible strength and element of differentiation. Always listening and looking for new technologies and their applications. Researcher in heart and mind, artisan in hands. The Group looks ahead, exploring the future with a concrete spirit, in order to provide customers with the best products and in the most efficient way possible.
Competences
The goal is customer satisfaction: to achieve it, the Group involves and guide the customer, step by step, all along the whole life of the project. Thanks to world-class partnership and its transparent approach, it gained the necessary competences to deliver a high-quality standard equipment on scheduled time. The entire project flow is overseen by the Project Manager, who represents the reference point for each customer. It assists them in both validation and after sales phases.
-
Conceptual and basic design
The Technical Department develops P&ID and preliminary layout starting from the URS: the experience gained allows to define the feasibility and concretize customers’ needs.
-
Detailed design
The Technical Department, in cooperation with the Process Specialists, defines all aspects related to the industrialization and develops detailed specifications as well as shop and installation drawings. It pays particular attention to the features of the materials, in terms of acceptance criteria and procedures.
-
Construction
In this phase all components are assembled to obtain final configuration, often following the so-called Skid Modular Approach.
-
Automation
ERsistemi, its strategic partner, takes care of the design and integration of automated control systems since the very first steps of the project, starting from plant simulation and virtual commissioning, therefore cutting costs, time and bug during production.
-
FAT
More than 20 P.O.U.s (with PW, IS, CS, Power and CA) allocated in the workshop, enable us to test the equipment in the same conditions of customer’s site.
-
Assembly on site
The plant is assembled at the final location: rigging and hook-up are performed, modules are positioned and connected.
-
Commissioning and start-up
Validation of the equipment on site is done, the plant takes its first steps.
-
Documentation and certification
The documentation, which comes to life from the earliest stages, is collected and delivered as per customer’s USR.
Stainless-steel meets technology
When stainless-steel is no longer enough, it meets technology. This is where the strategic synergy with ERsistemi, System Integrator able to design and realize industrial process automation, comes into play. TECNinox Group supplies complete systems, guaranteeing flexibility, production optimization, compliance with Pharma standards and therefore competitive advantage. ERsistemi is an active part since the very first step and along the whole duration of the project, developing a product tailored on each customer’s needs. TECNinox Group facilitates the project flow, being the only interface with the customer, and allows the achievement of goals set more easily and faster.
Managing the process, protect your data
Every plant and every process is unique. And so automation is. Everything starts with the analysis and supervision of the process, after that the best control system (PLC or DCS) and visualization system (HMI or SCADA) are selected, a choice made only on the basis of what better suits customer’s plant. Data integrity and data management are fundamental aspects throughout the project and plant life. It is important to ensure compliance with regulations and transparency to end users. That’s why the solutions are developed and tested according to GAMP5 (Good Automated Manufacturing Practice) and FDA CFR21 part 11. ERsistemi takes care of electrical design, follows validation and offers continuous assistance during the subsequent start-up and production phases too.
Virtual simulation and Digital Twin: the virtuality among and beyond the reality
ERsistemi invests in Virtual Simulation to simulate the complex processes of the plants, even before the installation phase. By adopting Siemens SIMIT, it brings to reality what doesn’t have shape yet. It learns from data collected, it can optimize the process and resources, reduce commissioning time and time-to-market. It can improve the entire plant lifecycle. SIMIT enables an end-to-end data flow between engineering and simulation, offering the basis to create a Digital Twin, a Virtual Plant able to communicate with its real, physical mirror part.
Unique technical solutions
Plants for Pharma and Biotech industries are customized and fulfill any customer’s need. TECNinox Group is masters in designing and building blood plasma fractionation, vaccines, cytotoxic, insulin, parenteral, Biotech Superskid, syrups, suspensions, aerosol, ophthalmic and gel process plants.
