Highlight Reveal: AI+ The Cutting-Edge Capabilities of a Computing-Power Intelligent Factory

1 Smart Park: Green, Low-Carbon, and Intelligent Operations

Leveraging core technologies such as 4K ultra-high-definition monitoring, 5G high-speed transmission, and AI-powered intelligent analysis, the factory has built a smart park platform that integrates intelligent manufacturing, energy management, security, and environmental protection. This system enables real-time monitoring and dynamic optimization of energy consumption—such as water, electricity, and gas—enabling precise carbon footprint management and significant energy savings. At the same time, it features advanced smart early-warning capabilities for safety risks and pollution emissions, ensuring comprehensive protection of park operations and ecological compliance. Ultimately, the platform helps create a modern pharmaceutical industrial park that is highly efficient, resource-intensive, environmentally friendly, low-carbon, and seamlessly integrated with human-machine collaboration.

 

2 AI-powered digital twins redefine new standards for sterile injectable production.

The production system integrates cutting-edge global pharmaceutical equipment and digital innovation technologies, establishing an intelligent manufacturing framework that covers the entire production process. Plans are already underway to build two production lines: one for lyophilized powder injections and another for BFS (Blow-Fill-Seal) products.

The lyophilized powder injection production line focuses on non-final sterilization injectables, covering both lyophilized powder vials and water injections in glass ampoules; the BFS production line specializes in final sterilization water injections, primarily producing plastic ampoule formulations.

Both production lines utilize digital twin technology, showcasing a highly automated and intelligent manufacturing philosophy. Through technologies such as unmanned material handling, visual inspection, and real-time monitoring, efficiency and product quality consistency have been dramatically enhanced, while significantly reducing the physical workload on personnel.

 

3 • Smart Laboratory Sets a New Benchmark for Digital Transformation in the Pharmaceutical Quality Inspection Field

The Smart Lab, built around the core principles of "end-to-end visualization, standardized systemization, operational automation, data-driven informatization, and intelligent decision-making," has established a groundbreaking, unmanned quality inspection ecosystem that challenges traditional approaches.

     The laboratory is equipped with an AI-based central control system and a cluster of intelligent robots, enabling fully automated operation across the entire chain—from sample preparation and instrument analysis to data interpretation. Under non-human intervention, it can perform continuous 24/7 testing, boasting highly automated processes and unmanned operation capabilities. The entire experimental process remains clearly visible, ensuring data accuracy and traceability. This approach shifts quality control from "post-event detection" to "proactive prevention," setting a new benchmark for digital transformation in the pharmaceutical quality inspection field.

 

4 Smart warehousing, intelligent scheduling—pioneering a new paradigm for pharmaceutical warehousing and logistics.

The four-way automated warehouse is equipped with a "smart brain." The WMS system manages the entire lifecycle of materials and finished products, ensuring real-time, zero-error synchronization of inventory data. Meanwhile, the WCS system acts as the "nervous center," seamlessly coordinating every stage of the operation. In the pre-warehouse area, automated loading and unloading robots work in tandem with rail-based transport systems to efficiently handle tasks such as weighing, labeling, and palletizing—entirely automating the process. Inside the production workshop, elevators connect directly to the rail network, enabling finished goods to move "seamlessly" and uninterrupted straight into the warehouse area. Additionally, the pre-warehouse features various types of collaborative AGV robots, achieving inbound and outbound precision down to the millimeter level. This fully unmanned, intelligent operation, backed by cutting-edge warehousing technology, is empowering the pharmaceutical supply chain to accelerate and thrive!
