Process Manufacturing

Manufacturing based on formulas, recipes or continuous transformations, common in chemicals, food and pharmaceuticals.

Examples

  1. 01The paint factory works in process manufacturing: products are mixed in 5,000-litre batches from recipes.
  2. 02In process manufacturing, the daily review links batch yield and recipe deviations to quality release times and customer deliveries.
  3. 03A recipe change is checked for its effect on tank cleaning time, because in process manufacturing a longer clean blocks the next batch.
