ABB Industrial IT Extended PAT (xPAT)

Industrial IT Extended PAT, the latest generation of ABB’s Process Analytical Technology solutions, provides simplified engineering and streamlined integration with enterprise systems.

This solution gives life sciences companies a single system to access and examine online, real-time process data directly from the manufacturing operation. It is a configurable, Microsoft Windows-based system collects data from ABB and/or third-party vendors’ analytical instruments and analyzes the data to determine the actual condition of the process. It then passes the resulting information to the ABB or third-party control system and to other applications that support the drug manufacturing process. www.abb.com
