RAGHAV in Pharmaceuticals

All of you who have gone through our previous article, “Hygiene Issues in Pharmaceuticals”, know that it dealt with the numerous challenges faced by the ever growing pharmaceutical industry while mainly focusing the hygiene issues. We saw how critical yet extremely challenging it is to maintain hygiene in the pharmaceutical production, packaging as well as warehousing. Statistics show that sometimes complete batches of drugs are rejected for not meeting the standards because of bad hygiene which is often a result of improper handling. Hence, these companies are constantly on the search for improved technologies for meeting their material handling requirements.

In today’s topic, RAGHAV in Pharmaceuticals, let us find out how RAGHAV can answer this call for help. Since we have been quoting RAGHAV’s enormous strength and its ability to lift loads as heavy 1500 Kg, it will not be a surprise if you are wondering how is it suited for an industry like medicine? Well, don’t forget that RAGHAV comes in multiple variants and can be adapted according to any environment to suit any kind of need.

In our last article we had established that lesser the human handling, lesser are the chances of contamination. Focusing on this point let us see how RAGHAV saves the day.

  • Although personal hygiene seems the easiest to maintain at individual level, it is the most difficult to keep a check on. The employees are always asked to wash their hands before resuming to work, but it is impossible to see if this is being followed or not. Moreover, the gloves and masks used by the workers also need to be sterilized after every use which adds to the overhead cost. Regular health check-ups to avoid transfer of germs are also a part of routine personal hygiene. With RAGHAV, all these issues get automatically resolved. RAGHAV is practically a superhero, who never gets sick. What’s more, he needs just a few hours of rest to charge and no breaks. No breaks mean no hand-wash and germ check each time before resuming work. This not only helps maintain a cleaner and germ-free atmosphere but also saves time. And the afore mentioned overhead costs are reduced to zero which is the most ideal scenario for any company.

 

  • Clean equipment and machinery are necessary for achieving reliability and consistency. Sanitization of manufacturing equipment is inescapable, but imagine cleaning and sanitizing of the conventionally long conveyor belts used for transporting the material! It sure is a tough, time consuming and costly affair. As opposed to that, RAGHAV being sleek, agile and petite, is very low maintenance. This makes the cleaning and sanitizing an easy and cost effective task.

 

  • RAGHAV is environment friendly as it runs on electricity and causes no pollution at all. This helps in keeping the air and atmosphere in general clean and carbon free. All this definitely plays an important role in maintaining the overall hygiene. When RAGHAV does the handling, it is 100% safe with the highest efficiency one can get. As seen previously, there is no need to guide RAGHAV each time it runs. Once the path is fixed it can automatically transfer all the material in the specified area, for example, raw material from the storage to the manufacturing. With the latest self loading and unloading technics, it can be ensured that the raw material is directly placed over the equipment. This reduces the human contact to a greater extent improving the hygiene.

Pharmaceuticals dread hygiene problems because it is a two-way sword. If the standards are not met, they have to suffer tremendous losses and maintaining those imperative standards costs them a fortune. RAGHAV brings a balance between hygiene and costs by providing a solution which is efficient, safe and environment friendly.
