ACG Group, the only supplier in the world offering end-to-end manufacturing solutions for the pharmaceutical industry – is showcasing a comprehensive portfolio of next-generation production, packaging and inspection machinery. Comprising equipment solutions from two of its four business units, ACG Engineering and ACG Inspection, the NXT Series are future ready machines which will provide smart USER experience to our customers. Under the NXT series, the machines included are Protab 300 NXT, Protab 700 NXT, BMax NXT, KartonX NXT, Verishield CS18 NXT.
An acronym, USER stands for UltraHMI, StealthDesign, ExploreAR (Augmented Reality) and RevealiOT. Combined, the elevated elements, bring sweeping changes to a significant portfolio of ACG machinery including tablet presses, blister and cartoning packing equipment and serialization units for Track and Trace applications. The result is a sizable step forward in all facets of the production experience:
• UltraHMI: Aligning with the continued push for increasingly automated manufacturing solutions, ACG’s newly imagined HMI system provides seamless control of high-precision, contamination-free machines requiring minimal humanmachine interaction. Highlights include a simplified operator experience, better data visualization, decision dashboard and of course, IIoT enabled.
• StealthDesign: With a smooth, flowing style, the sleek new machine look exemplifies ACG’s commitment to versatility, maneuverability, and maximized output at a minimized footprint.
• ExploreAR: Smarter, secure, and faster, ACG’s unsurpassed Augmented Reality solutions raise the bar of process efficiency. Harnessing the potential of AR technology, ExploreAR reduces production downtime, identifies and resolves maintenance issues more quickly, and keeps manufacturing moving at a more optimized pace. Highlights include real-time monitoring, remote diagnosis and proactive service support, proactive maintenance and more realistic operator training.
• RevealiOT: ACG’s IIoT platform enables intermachine connectivity and smart manufacturing processes via easy-to-read dashboards detailing heretofore difficultto-measure KPIs. Digestible data provides actionable metrics, a quantum leap in transparency leading to predictive maintenance, improved product quality and maximized overall equipment effectiveness (OEE). The treasure trove of new information also allows for “Golden Batch” repeatability and optimized production schedules, significantly improving machine efficiency while reducing line downtime.
