This document provides 5 key questions to consider when designing a batching control system: 1) What are your long-term objectives and what do you want to achieve? 2) Do operators miss steps in recipes and how can the system help minimize errors? 3) How do over- or under-filling components impact costs and quality? 4) Do you need to track, trace and print documentation? 5) What are the most important components to measure accurately? The document recommends evaluating factors that cause operator errors, costs of measurement errors, and necessary documentation.

- 1. Top 5 Questions to Ask For a Better Batching System Designing a stand-alone batch-control solution requires careful selection of components to fulfill unique process requirements. Think about your long-term objectives and what you wish to achieve with this batching system. Providing your operators step-by-step guidance through the recipe will minimize the risk of missing a step in batch production. Evaluate the factors that cause operators to miss steps today. Evaluate how the over- or under-filling of components impacts your profitability and batch quality. Ensure tracking and tracing and print only necessary documentation. Determine the smallest component you will weigh, the component with the smallest tolerance, components that influence the character of your products, the most expensive components, and hazardous components. Do you know the key questions to ask when designing the best batch-control system for your needs? What are you trying to achieve in your batch process? Do operators miss steps in recipes? What are the most important components of your batch? Do you need to print batch tickets? How do you verify if measuring equipment is accurate enough to comply with tolerances?
