ENRIQUES-GASPAR, Antonio et al. Maintenance actions supporting a biotechnological production enterprise. Ingeniería Mecánica [online]. 2019, vol.22, n.1, pp.1-6. ISSN 1815-5944.

The work was demonstrated as from the activity of maintaining support to production. In it, the elements that interact during the filling of low volume parenteral products in a filling line of a biotechnology company are exposed. The interactions of the different elements involved were analyzed: vials, disposable bags, glass bottles, hoses, needles, rotary piston pumps, high precision weighing scales, etc. We examined the rejection variables by weighing range as well as the hierarchy of the influence, of these elements, on the final result. The filling line used was characterized in terms of its technological benefits and work capacity. The objective pursued was to determine the causes of the high rejections as well as to propose measures for their control and reduction that were carried out by the maintenance personnel of the entity.

Keywords : rejection; weighing range; parenterally; vials; hoses; needles.
