The context

MAS Elettronica, a company of the FAE Technology Group, developed a fully custom and high-performance embedded electronic solution for a leading Italian industrial group specializing in quality-control systems for the pharmaceutical sector.
The project addressed the growing need within the industry to modernize production processes through intelligent automation and comprehensive traceability.

The technological challenge

The company needed to integrate advanced control technologies into its existing production lines while maintaining sub-millimetric precision and compliance with international sector regulations.
The complexity lay in harmonizing legacy systems with innovative solutions without compromising operational continuity.

Integrated solutions

MAS Elettronica designed a technological ecosystem based on an ARM architecture with a customized NXP processor, consisting of five custom electronic boards with dedicated enclosures, an optimized Linux operating system, and advanced industrial communication protocols.
The solution enables automated control of critical parameters in manufactured pharmaceutical packages, ensuring end-to-end traceability and a simplified user interface for real-time monitoring.

Operational impact

The system generated significant improvements: reduction of production waste, elimination of human errors in critical stages, automated quality control with sub-millimetric defect detection, and increased line speed while maintaining the highest quality standards.
The modular and scalable architecture also ensures long-term sustainability and scalability.
