Industrial Automation
Just like the broader industrial automation industry, the medical and pharmaceutical sectors are rapidly evolving under tighter regulations and a growing demand for automation in the industry. From clinical diagnostics and medical device production to pharmaceutical packaging, manufacturers are leveraging engineering automation and process automation to meet these complex challenges efficiently.
Both the medical and manufacturing automation sectors share a common goal — ensuring safety, quality, and speed. Industrial automation solutions now play a crucial role in helping patients receive faster and more accurate diagnoses. Within this framework, traceability has emerged as one of the most critical components for achieving success in modern factory automation.

Pharmaceutical and medical device manufacturers face stricter regulations and greater scrutiny than ever. To stay compliant, including with requirements such as FDA 21 CFR Part 11, they must strengthen industrial control systems and traceability processes for better data integrity and transparency. This move toward advanced industrial automation & control often requires new automation solutions and labeling technologies.

Pharmaceutical manufacturers face severe consequences when product recalls occur. Issues like mislabeling errors can cause substantial brand damage, waste materials, and erode consumer trust. By integrating industrial control and machine vision systems within automation systems, manufacturers can minimize these risks.

Counterfeit drugs remain a major challenge in global pharmaceutical supply chains. To meet stricter regulations, manufacturers must ensure every product is authentic and traceable. OMRON’s industrial machine vision and automation technologies enhance compliance, visibility, and brand protection — with engineering automation that enables product verification at every stage.
To address these industry-wide challenges, OMRON, a leader in industrial automation, offers a comprehensive traceability solution designed for pharmaceutical manufacturing. This industrial automation solution integrates process automation and machine vision to inspect, aggregate, manage, and exchange serialized data seamlessly across factory environments.
By placing a serialized code on each product package, manufacturers can ensure authenticity, compliance, and full traceability. These industrial automation solutions help pharmaceutical producers meet labeling requirements, prevent costly recalls, and protect consumer safety — while maintaining operational efficiency.
At OMRON, our vision for industrial automation goes beyond efficiency — it’s about simplicity, safety, and reliability. We make traceability intuitive and accessible by combining our machine vision technology with user-friendly automation systems. Our automation solutions empower manufacturers to achieve real-time traceability with minimal operator intervention, ensuring accuracy and consistency throughout the production process.
OMRON has long partnered with leading pharmaceutical and diagnostics manufacturers.
