Turnkey pharma grade starch manufacturing plant was based on an innovatively developed and system integrated paddle-type sterilizer and cooler that minimized bacterial and fungal count to pharma standards and expanded production capacity while reducing workforce requirement to 3. Poka yoke eliminated errors in this safe and ergonomic setup. Training as well as documentation for operator use, preventive maintenance, and spares was provided.
