Understand the real scale of production-related drug shortages and their impact on patient access. Learn how to predictive maintenance, real-time traceability, and automated systems prevent the disruptions that cascade through pharmaceutical supply chains. 

GENESIS provides real-time visibility across your supply chain - from raw material receipt through production to finished goods - with built-in industrial historian for trend analysis and predictive insights. Track every lot number, expiration data, and storage condition automatically, with alerts when materials approach expiration or inventory falls below safety stock.  

MELSEC control systems manage product serialization and genealogy tracking with predictive diagnostics. System monitoring and event history with root cause analysis identify potential equipment issues before unplanned downtime. When supply issues arise, quickly identify affected batches and trace to distribution or raw material suppliers. 

MELFA robots integrate with automated storage and retrieval systems for material flow and inventory management. Direct integration with MELSEC controllers enables real-time tracking of every material movement, creating complete chain-of-custody records. Reduce manual handling errors, support FIFO material usage, and maintain automated documentation for critical materials.

MELSERVO J5 servo systems with AI-powered predictive maintenance detect mechanical component wear weeks before failure, enabling proactive parts ordering and scheduled maintenance during planned downtime. Built-in diagnostics and CC-Link IE TSN integration provide timestamped performance history for root cause analysis and capacity planning, preventing the unplanned disruptions that cascade through supply chains.
