AI Contract Overview

The Food and Drug Administration's Office of Pharmaceutical Quality Research is seeking the installation of Human Machine Interface controllers for five Coperion K-Tron continuous powder feeders. The project involves integrating three QT20, one KT20, and one MT12 feeder into a continuous manufacturing line. This requires the installation of five Coperion K-Tron Control Modules and a K-Vision operator interface to enable centralized monitoring and control of the equipment. The primary objective is to resolve a lack of mounting space on the current integration platform to ensure the feeders can operate under supervised conditions. This effort supports regulatory science research into emerging technologies to improve pharmaceutical manufacturing process control and risk mitigation. The procurement is categorized under NAICS code 334516 and is currently listed as a forecast.

Full Description

The Office of Pharmaceutical Quality Research (OPQR) supports the modernization of pharmaceutical manufacturing by conducting regulatory science research on emerging technologies. Continuous process monitoring and manufacturing process control are critical for establishment of a robust process that can consistently produce product of desired quality, while identifying and mitigating manufacturing risks. Currently, OPQR possesses three Coperion K-Tron QT20 continuous powder feeders, one Coperion K-Tron KT20 continuous powder feeder, and one Coperion K-Tron MT12 continuous powder feeder. All five feeders are to be used with an integration platform. However, the integration platform lacks a mounting space for the Human Machine Interface (HMI) controllers associated with each of the five feeders that allow users to monitor and control the feeders. The five HMI controllers (Coperion K-Tron Control Modules, or "KCMs") connect to a feeder operator interface known as "K-Vision" that is used to control all five feeders from a single location. Connections to the HMI controllers, including all five KCMs and the K-Vision, are required to be installed in order to integrate the feeders into a CM line for operation under supervised conditions.
