Optimal is to host its 2019 USA synTQ User Group Meeting and training in Philadelphia, from 25th – 28th June.

Optimal Industrial Technologies has announced the next group meeting for users of its market leading Process Analytical Technology (PAT) knowledge management software, synTQ. The two-day event will take place at Normandy Farm, Philadelphia, U.S.A, and will be followed by a two-day synTQ training course at the same venue.

Leveraging the remarkable success of the past synTQ User Group Meetings, this year’s event will feature an even busier and more interactive agenda with multiple live synTQ systems connected to physical instruments. Demonstrations will range from the laboratory through to GMP manufacturing scenarios. Additionally, attendees will be able to participate in the discussion on how Industry 4.0 is driving the need for PAT and the consequential data integrity, cyber security and system resilience requirements that need to be addressed.

The synTQ user community meeting will also feature real-world case studies and presentations from users and partners. Key focus areas will include batch and continuous manufacturing for biotech and oral solid dosage as well as for active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) manufacture.

During the conference, the demonstration sessions will not only show attendees the process benefits that can be obtained by using PAT, but they will also show off the latest enhancements of synTQ V5, what is planned for the future as well as the synTQ EM (Enterprise Master) and synTQ RS (Reporting Services) solutions. synTQ users will learn how to efficiently connect synTQ and its variants to live instruments, third party systems and the Cloud.

These topics will be explored in even more detail during the two-day training course, which will feature hands-on tutorial activities and one-to-one sessions with leading PAT experts. In this way, the workshop will empower synTQ users to reap the full benefits of Optimal’s platform: boosting productivity, product quality and consistency whilst slashing costs, development and manufacturing times as well as eliminating off-spec product.

Martin Gadsby, Director at Optimal Industrial Technologies, commented: “Our user group meetings are growing in popularity, as the global usage of synTQ expands. With the conference and the newly added training session, we want to simplify PAT implementation pathways by building a strong and well-connected community of PAT users that can share experiences.”

“We also aim to address the immediate and future needs of our users, in order to offer an already proven platform that evolves with our customers and their manufacturing techniques. Even more, these events give businesses the opportunity to discuss how PAT and synTQ can move forward as a whole. Optimal greatly values this interaction, as it offers us useful feedback on how to develop synTQ and our offering.”
