David McPhail, President and CEO of Memex Automation, was interviewed by Business News Network. McPhail asserts, “Modern manufacturing equipment costs the same (in equivalent currencies) across all manufacturing jurisdictions (North America, Europe, China, India, etc.). Raw materials are priced as commodities in a common currency (usually USD). It is the cost of labor that varies widely between manufacturing zones. The true cost of labor contains all the usual overhead costs that manufacturers are required to pay (taxes, health care costs, insurance, burdens, etc), and is not necessarily limited to what the employee is paid on an hourly basis. These "grey" costs also vary widely between developed and developing manufacturing zones.”

There is more money being spent today on used pharmaceutical equipment than ever before. This shouldn't surprise anyone, since saving both time and money is imperative in today's global marketplace. Pharmaceutical technology is constructed to be useful for years, and with regular preventative maintenance will produce for decades.

Engineer-to-Order systems are designed to resolve several core problems; the most important being the speeding up of the definition and acquisition of materials. The time it takes to produce a product in an ETO company is totally dependent on how long it takes to define the items on a BOM and acquire these materials. Complications occur when designers are required to release the BOM in stages, not all at one time. They must also deal with change requests from the client and manufacturing throughout the project. ETO firms need a system designed for this type of concurrent engineering that dramatically reduce the time to create, control and release information to purchasing.

A large variety of processes, few of which are exactly alike, typical unit operations share many commonalities. One of these is the requirement for accurate process analytics in order to help maximize product quality and yield and to minimize costs. Measurement of pH, ORP, conductivity, DO or turbidity may seem like small parts of a total industrial process, but these parameters can be the cause of frustration, downtime and substantial expenditure unless they are properly understood and adequately controlled.
