Serialization – a global approach

Serialization concept

THE SMALLEST ITEM PUT ON SALE (selling unit) IS IDENTIFIED BY THE COMBINATION OF AN IDENTIFIER AND A UNIQUE SERIAL NUMBER

INFORMATION IS BOTH IN HUMAN READABLE CODE AND ENCODED IN A CARRIER (1D code -2D code-RF-ID)

CONTROL IS AT THE ORIGIN POINT (Pharmaceutical Companies) AND AT THE DISPENSING POINT (Pharmacy, Hospital) THROUGH A NATIONAL DATABASE

Serialization conceptSerialization at different levels

carton

bundle

case

pallet

EACH DEFINED UNIT LEVEL IS IDENTIFIED BY A UNIQUE COMBINATION OF AN IDENTIFIER AND A SERIAL NUMBER

CONTROL IS LIMITED TO EACH ITEM AT EACH STEP

Aggregation conceptFrom carton to pallet: building the parent – child relationship

carton

bundle

case

pallet

EACH UNIT LEVEL HAS A UNIQUE COMBINATION of SERIAL NUMBER and IDENTIFIER

SERIAL NUMBERS OF UNITS ARE BEARING A PARENT-TO-CHILD RELATIONSHIP

CONTROL IS THROUGHOUT THE WHOLE CHAIN, FROM MANUFACTURE TO DISPENSING

With different requirements and across independent time frames, legislatorsworldwide are defining their own rules for pharmaceutical Track & Trace.

Why Track&Trace?

10

Track & Trace across the supply chain

RETAILERWHOLESALERMANUFACTURER PHARMACYHOSPITAL

PATIENT

Serialization is a part of the Track & Trace process, aiming at controllingthe location of an item across time and space within the supply chain.

EU-FMD Falsified Medicines Directive and DSCSA –drug supply chain security act - require only controls at the item level and at the point of dispense. But ……..

Aggregation in Track & Trace

Builds parent/child relation among all logistic unit based on hierarchy of serial numbers

Allows the monitoring of the complete product flow

Adds value to the supply chain management

Not currently required by EU-FMD and DSCSA (USA)

Pharma companies: The impact of traceability

13

• Processes are to be modified

• Physical space needs to be found in the lines

• OEE - Overall Equipment Effectiveness - of the lines will be impacted

• New responsibilities are showing up

• Down-time needs to be made available for installations

• IT infrastructure is impacted (serialization servers - communication with regulatory agencies)

• Investment becomes important particularly with aggregation on automated lines

• Team work is essential for the choice of the partner and of the solution:Engineering, Production, IT, Maintenance, QA

Traceability issues - good side effects

15

Renewal:Oftentimes the need to alter the physical layout of the line is the occasion for the renewal of obsolete/old peripherals that would otherwise have continued to operate and impair line efficiency (e.g. embossing in cartoning machines and

other mechanically set prints, oftentimes not controlled)

Lower costs of consumables: It has been calculated that when new TIJ2.5 Thermal inkjet systems, belongingto Track&Trace solutions, replace obsolete/old printing devices (like, for example,

hot stamp printing systems), the cost of servicing and the cost of consumablesdecreases

Flexibility: The new printing and verification systems system allow for high flexibility andcan manage markings of different kinds and responding to different needs(internal market, export to countries with or without a T&T legislation)

Print&Check - Stand-alone serialization modules for cartons

A complete range to fulfill all application needs

Several solutions fitting case packers of virtually any manufacturer

Camera array: one High Resolution or up to 6 sliding cameras to acquire multiple images for each case (up to 120 Mbytes in one sweep)

Intelligent layer reconstruction: images taken from different cameras are integrated to reconstruct the complete layer thus minimizing rejects due to non-read codes.

CASE PACKERS: Make sure when ordering a new case packer that it includes a pre-disposition for T&T

checked!

Case aggregation – integration in case packer

Matrix Station Top View

designed to maximize productivity in the manual packaging operations, it performs a top view recognition of Datamatrix codes of cartons when fit into a case (reading window 500x 300 mm). Multi-layer cases are managed by means of an automatic – format related – adjustment of the camera position.

Semiautomatic aggregation

Matrix HRC Station

Ideal for single-layer cases, it is designed to maximize productivity in the manual packaging

operations, such manual filling of cases (reading window 550x 430 mm)
