Chemical Manufacturing
Chemical manufacturers create and process a variety of products that must meet certain specifications, often with unique product characteristics that differ based on client specifications. In a competitive industry, those manufacturers that have good precision and reproducibility in manufacturing their product and meeting their client requirements will be successful.
LIMS are the tools that provide the data management and measurement techniques, providing real time, high quality results to plant manager and operators, internal and external clients. The LIMS can store multiple formulations, recipes and manage multiple client specific and product specific specifications. The ability to generate SPC (Statistical Process Control) charts during the production of chemicals and having the ability to analyze different products with immediate notification of any deviations from user defined specifications can save considerable time and resources, and prevent out of specification product production.

Ability to quickly generate SPC charts to ensure product specifications are met.
|
End-users and plant managers can generate trend analyses and SPC charts "on the fly" or they can configure reports to automatically print or e-mail to a specified group. ATL’s LIMS is also integrated with Northwest Analytical Quality Analyst for more sophisticated statistical analysis.

|
Product and batch traceability.
|
Users have the ability to track sample test results through all stages of the manufacturing process and generate certificates of analysis that can be posted to a website in pdf format.
|
|
Real-time quality control.
|
Users can track results against project, customer and global upper/lower warning and control limits. Color-coding during result entry provides immediate feedback of sample results and can warn users when results are outside of the limits and make decisions on product re-grading.
|
|
Instrument integration.
|
Integration with analytical and physical test equipment provides rapid, high quality data transfer.
|
|
LIMS integration with enterprise systems.
|
The LIMS provides integration to enterprise systems such as ERP/MRP and export/import-scheduling information, order ID, batch information, specifications, results, limits, with integrated barcode tracking.
