LDO, the manufacturer of active pharmaceutical ingredients, has chosen Inteco's weighing solution, allowing them to select APIs that meet FDA requirements for production and enter the US market.

customer

LABORATORI DERIVATI ORGANICI (LDO) was founded in 1960 and is located in Italy. It is an expert in the production of glycosaminoglycan heparin sodium, heparin calcium, and heparin like substances. These drugs are used to prevent blood clotting and treat thrombosis and heart attacks.

key points

LABORATORI DERIVATI ORGANICI (LDO) specializes in extracting active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) from animal sources. Over the past few decades, this Italian based company has continuously expanded in Europe, Asia, and South America. For new production facilities and the goal of entering the US market, LDO needs to comply with FDA's API production compliance.

application

Due to strict requirements, GEASS, as a certified partner of Intico, has adopted hygiene designed weighing sensors and weighing solutions with different combinations of weighing electrical components.

Benefits brought to customers

The selected container weighing component ensures accurate measurement results and ideal connection with the higher-level system. The hygienic design of the product reduces cleaning time and allows LDOs to choose APIs that meet FDA requirements for production.

Project objectives and implementation

Recently, LDO has invested a significant amount of resources to implement a new production department. The planned building area is approximately 2000 square meters, intended for injection, oral, and topical active pharmaceutical ingredient products. The factory is equipped with equipment, instruments, and devices that meet FDA requirements in order to obtain approval from North American authorities.

In order to obtain FDA approval, drugs must be produced under the conditions and practices specified by Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP). Yintaike products meet these requirements, ensuring quality at every step of the design and production process. Due to the easy management of cleaning work, it can prevent any cross contamination of components.The PR 6211 weighing sensor is sealed, shock resistant, and heat-resistant. The weighing display and PR 5230 weight transmitter can reliably and accurately process the weight value of the material tank scale. Its on-site shell can achieve direct, safe, and hygienic installation.

Thanks to the precise and reliable weighing results provided by the PR 6211 weighing sensor, the operation process of Yintaike products is easy to control. In addition, PR 5230 weighingThe transmitter and X3 display ensure traceability and facilitate the operation of calibration procedures. Possible deviations can also be quickly investigated and recorded.

LDO is a global expert in the production of heparin sodium, heparin calcium, and heparin like substances

The driving force behind these developments is GEASS, a member of the InterTech Partner Program located near Turin, Italy. GEASS has been committed to providing sales and services of a large number of instruments and meters for process weighing and laboratories in different industries. GEASS provides comprehensive information and services to customers, providing ample support for Inteco Italy. After understanding the value of Intico's products, GEASS collaborated with LDO to invest in the purchase of 68 PR6211 weighing sensors, 10 X3 weighing displays, and 6 PR 5230 weight transmitters, all of which need to be installed on 14 process containers in LDO's production line.

Intico's sanitary designed weighing sensors and weighing electrical components provide a weighing solution that meets the needs of LDOs: it obtained approval from the Italian AIFA in 2016 and currently achieves FDA compliance for API production, thus opening up this huge new market in the United States.
