Merck Group is a leading global multinational pharmaceutical and life science company, with its core businesses centered around three major areas: Pharma & Healthcare, Life Science, and Electronics Technology. It has invested in building R & D centers and manufacturing plants in Beijing, Shanghai, Suzhou, Nantong and other places. Since 2017, Wellthinic Technology has served as a core technology partner of Merck Group, providing it with comprehensive digital and automation solutions to empower the construction of smart factories. The projects have been successfully implemented in factories in Taoyuan of Taiwan, Nantong, Suzhou and other places, helping the Merck Group achieve efficient production and innovative upgrades.

Solution Description:

The digital system adopts a flexible system architecture and modular design. Through the in-depth integration of technologies, it realizes efficient interconnection between the production control layer and the management layer. It has successfully integrated ERP, automation control systems, QCIMS systems, MPS systems, weighbridge systems, etc., to build an end-to- end digital management system. The solution fully supports the full-process digital management and control from the raw material to the finished product, and establish a product quality traceability system.

The automation system significantly improves the system's safety and reliability and reduces accident risks through measures such as redundant design, remote centralized placement, and flame-retardant shielded cables. It is connected to the national regulatory platform to create a "five-in-one platform", comprehensively strengthening regulatory efficiency and ensuring quality stability and compliance in the production process.

Implementation Effect:

  • Realize 7×24 real-time online monitoring, and be able to query production environment status and warning information

  • The control system is centrally set up, with local alarms and disposal plans that do not affect production efficiency

  • Fully achieve 100% paperless production operations, optimize the production process, and reduce losses; the production efficiency has increased by 20% year - on - year

  • The data is collected in a fully automated mode, reducing the human error rate by 95% and ensuring quality stability

  • Connected to the national regulatory platform to realize the "five-in-one platform" and strengthen regulatory management efficiency
