Discover how the right statistical process control (SPC) software program can help your organization become compliant with these rules in an efficient way.
Companies that are regulated by the FDA must comply with a set of rules that can, at times, prove to be extremely onerous, even for the most organized firm.
An SPC system is a software program that helps these over-burdened firms to meet the terms of FDA compliance. By utilizing statistical methods to observe and control various business processes, an SPC can effectively streamline a firm’s operations.

Despite this stand-still, engineers have recently been able to develop solutions to some of the limitations in modern microanalysis. Using an integrated design approach, digital microscopes have been developed to overcome many of the shortcomings of conventional optical microscopes. Specifically, in regard to ceramics, one of the major difficulties in observing and analyzing these materials is the complete lack of contrast typically associated with them, especially when viewed through a traditional optical microscope. However, by using the advanced features of fully-integrated digital microscopes, coupled with highresolution zoom lenses and digital camera technology, users can now image samples that were previously relegated to the realm of an SEM.

Companies Mentioned in this Press Release:Business Categories Mentioned in this Press Release: MONTEREY, CA – May 5, 2009 – This week, Sierra Instruments introduced their Smart-Trak® 2, a significant re-design of their flagship Series 100 Digital Mass Flow Meters and Controllers. The result of over five years of user feedback, new features of the Smart-Trak® 2 have added even more control, independence and flexibility. Sierra is also proud to introduce the Compod™, a Smart-Trak® 2 add-on that expands networking, streamlines and simplifies functionality and reduces costs.
“We see this as adding a fourth point to our three-point Global Stimulus campaign we rolled out last month,” says Matthew J. Olin, President and CEO of Sierra Instruments. “Providing #1 cost-cutting, #2 free engineering and #3 expedited product delivery are crucial first steps for the hard-hit industries we serve. Now it’s time to bring them #4 innovative new Sierra products that will help expand their capabilities without increasing costs.”
Expanded Functionality of Smart-Trak® 2 Includes:
• True linear performance provides high accuracy and great flexibility in multiple gases
• With Dial-A-Gas® Technology, users select from up to ten pre-programmed gases or substitute their own
• The ability to adjust calibration in the field for each of these 10 gases independently
• Unique Pilot Module (mounted or hand-held) lets users view and change critical control functions in the field
• Proprietary frictionless-hovering direct-acting control valve technology
• MODBUS RTU networking capability with Sierra Compod™
Ideal for OEM, industry, or research applications, it builds upon the performance and user-friendliness end-users came to expect with the original Smart-Trak. Smart Trak® 2 provides the most advanced linear sensor available, smoother valve performance, more robust electronics and more control over a wide range of functions.
With its advanced capabilities, the Compod™, coupled with Sierra’s Smart-Trak® Model100 mass flow meters or controllers, greatly simplifies basic flow control installations and permits networking of multiple instruments using open-source MODBUS RTU protocol.
By adding the Compod™ module to a new or existing Smart-Trak®, end users can take complete control of gas mixing and blending, batch control, leak testing and process monitoring.
