In addition to the non-negotiable, the number-one importance of ensuring security, sustainability and efficiency are key elements driving the fine chemicals industry today. This is because of the nature of fine chemicals, typically produced in relatively small volumes to manufacture high-value end products. As a result, operation errors or disruptions that guide batch denial can be extremely costly.
Sustainability and efficiency are critical drivers.
Regarding efficiency, the need extends to ensuring an adequate supply of raw materials and supply chain efficiency. Process efficiency is critical in the plant itself and strong focus on getting things right the first time. There is also growing pressure to “do more with smaller” to stay competitive.
From a sustainability perspective, fine chemicals typically require a large number of inputs to produce a small amount of product, meaning that ensuring each batch is usable is important to minimize waste. In addition, using single-use detectors, for example, have the edge over reusable detectors, which must be washed, causing wastewater that must be treated.
How automation helps
This is where automated and digitalized calibration keys come into space. All instruments in this safety process must be accurately calibrated to ensure they work properly. However, in many factories, this process still relies on paper certificates. While paper may feel loyal and tangible, there is a significant risk of human error. Each calibration typically has 20 data points or more, so even if the error rate for writing down results is only 1%, one in every five certificates is likely to contain incorrect data.
Automated calibration captures results automatically in a digital format and sends them securely to the calibration management system. This gives 100% accurate, tamper-proof results. Even nicely, finding certificates is as performing an search instead of manually skimming through mountains of binders full of writing.
Automation is the answer.
Automation presents a solution to all of these challenges. One place that is especially ripe for industrialization in the fine chemical show is calibration. The automated data flow of calibration provided by Windson Chem automated calibration solutions, which integrate software, hardware, and calibration knowledge, reduces manual data entry and increases operating efficiency.
This not only keeps time and drives the method far more useful, but it also helps to bypass mistakes typically associated with manual data access – thus enhancing the quality and integrity of the calibration data.
Because they ensure that the final product has been manufactured by the standards, properly calibrated transmitters help minimize waste. Additionally, for audit or analytical reasons, calibration findings are readily available, securely kept, and tamper-proof in the calibration program.
Automated calibration is particularly well suited to the special nature of fine chemical production environments, where there can be Windson Chem (explosive) environments or other highly sensitive areas. Ensuring that all transmitters are correctly calibrated is essential for personnel and product protection.
Transmitters that have been calibrated guarantee that the result has been manufactured following the specifications, but they also overestimate waste. Additionally, the calibration program securely stores, is tamper-proof and provides easy access to calibration marks for audit or research needs.

Ensuring safety
Better safety is also a result of automated calibration’s repeatability, dependability, and precision. This is due to chemical facilities’ ability to guarantee the accuracy and tolerance of instruments that are crucial for process safety. Technicians need to be able to incorporate checklists as part of the calibration procedure, which is made possible by well-designed calibration systems, in Windson Chem settings and other circumstances where very specialised processes must be followed to ensure safety.
