Industries · Pharma packaging

Flowtics for pharma packaging machinery. Remote service for every line, wherever it is installed.

Flowtics reads the PLC on blister, cartoning and labelling machines and shows speed, rejects and batches live. Machine builders support lines in the field without travelling first; factories see output and rejects per batch.

Who it’s for

Whether you build these machines or run them.

If you build them

  • Support lines in the field, with the alarm, the data and the remedy in front of your engineer.
  • Fix most faults by phone instead of sending someone abroad.
  • Decide what each customer sees, under your own brand.
For machine builders

If you run them

  • Output and rejects per batch, live.
  • Every change on the line in the activity log.
  • Changeover times on record, so you can make them shorter.
