AseptSOFT® BLOG
As a mechanical engineer, I spent 5 months manually drawing fluid paths for nearly 200 p&id copies. Engineers also encounter errors in pharmaceutical process design, so to add a valve to the P&ID, I had to rework the entire design. In this blog I will show you why a process change takes so long and how to easily do it in just a few hours. I will also talk about any other important topics in the pharmaceutical and biopharma industry. Subscribe to be informed!
