Abstract :
Pharmaceutical medication devices are used to fill, count, package & deliver medicines ensuring an automated & efficient batch production. Different types of devices are used but the theme here is to increase the efficiency by introducing supervisory control and data acquisition system (SCADA) which overcomes human intervention and increases the overall efficiency of the pharmaceutical process. Hardware design of an efficient batch production device is also presented along with the mechanical aspects.
