Case Study: Pharmaceutical Packaging Company achieves centralized management and enhanced quality assurance with Advantech SRP-FPV240 ThinManager solution

Advantech SRP-FPV240 ThinManager Solution, Greater Quality Assurance for Enhanced Productivity

Pharmaceutical Packaging Company, an FDA‑regulated primary packaging container manufacturer in the USA with four manufacturing sites, faced an unsustainable need to centrally manage production process visualization, traceability, and regulatory compliance from its headquarters. To address this, the company turned to Advantech and its SRP‑FPV240 ThinManager®‑ready platform to enable centralized control of production applications while meeting strict security and validation requirements.

Advantech implemented the SRP‑FPV240 thin‑client solution integrated with Rockwell Automation’s ThinManager® and the customer’s MES/ERP to consolidate server applications and monitoring sessions into a single interface (multi‑monitor support, virtual screens, shadowing, session scaling, and screen tiling). The deployment allowed centralized application management and remote deployment across all four sites, reduced resources required for dashboard maintenance, improved production validation and traceability, and strengthened data security—resulting in clearer real‑time visibility, higher operational efficiency, and simpler IT management for the Pharmaceutical Packaging Company.
