In the production of the food spreads we manufacture here at Droga Kolinska, sterilization is of utmost importance, both for safety reasons, as well as economical ones. But even in this time of great technological progress the human factor is always present. The value of the EXACTUM Food Safety lies in the fact that it eliminates the problem of human reaction. It works as a person’s “digital sense”, an assistant that warns and, when necessary, reacts.

This results in potentially high savings in your money and time. It reduces stress levels because it, at least to some extent, relieves us of our responsibility and consequently allows us to focus on other challenges, which are always present in the production industry. I believe that everybody who must follow standards, such as ISO 22000, HACCP, and others, will quickly recognize the value of the EXACTUM Food Safety as a highly efficient and safe solution..

A carefully selected and well-kept measuring system is one of the main support programs inside the systems that guarantee food safety. It ensures adequate supervision of critical procedures that take place in processing, preparation, and distribution of food products.

The regular storage of relevant data collected by measuring devices is crucial in defining trends and analyzing them, as well as in assessing procedural stability. A reliable measuring system, which is in part based on risk assessment, enables efficient monitoring of relevant control points and critical control points. It consequently ensures the safety and quality of food products in accordance with their established shelf life. EXACTUM Food safety, one of the products produced by LOTRIČ Metrology, combines several measuring devices and connects them into a comprehensive and reliable measuring system. It provides its users, as well as the food industry as a whole, reliable control over the parameters used in the processes of treatment, storage, and distribution of their products.

»In our pharmacy, we ensure control of temperature and relative humidity by using the latest measurement instruments (4th generation). EXACTUM Pharmacy is practical, reliable and easy to use. We no longer need to readand enter the data in tables on a daily basis, because Exactum does that for us. The measurement instruments are automatically calibrated, because LOTRIČ Metrology ensures their timely and professional calibration. Withthe control system, we manage all of the critical spots in our pharmacy – from the receipt of materials, storage of sanitary equipment and temperature of medical coolers. We record and printout the parameters on all locations on a monthly basis. In the event of a complaint, we use the stored records as proof of appropriate storage of medicines or medical technical aids. If the prescribed values are exceeded, we respond immediately by recording and documenting the deviation.

EXACTUM Pharmacy ensures traceability of appropriate storage through its control system.«

Melita Dolenšek, M.Sc. of Pharmacy, head of the pharmacy University Rehabilitation Institute of the Republic of Slovenia – Soča

»A decade ago, control of temperature and relative humidity in our pharmacy followed a standard procedure – three times a day, we would manually enter the values read from thermometers and hygrometers into a table. Later on, we used data loggers which provided a better overview of the measurements, but their warning system was insufficient. In other departments of the hospital, the situation was similar. Nurses spent a lot of their valuable time checking and recording temperatures in medical coolers. Without EXACTUM, monitoring was time-consuming and inaccurate. The EXACTUM Pharmacy system, which is what we use today, requires just a few clicks with a mouse per day. No more worries about getting warnings in time, because the control system informs us by sending a warning electronic mail or text message.

In the six months we have been using this system, we have not encountered any obstacles. The system operates flawlessly. Using the control system in a hospital environment eases the workflow and allows the employees to dedicate their time to their primary tasks, but above all, to their patients.«

»At Sežana Hospital, we decided to implement a modern system for monitoring temperature in medical refrigerators which are used for storing medicines and vaccines. Instead of manually entering the measured temperatures into control sheets, we use the EXACTUM smart monitoring system which is renowned for its accuracy and reliability. All of our medical refrigerators in which we store medicines and vaccines, are equipped with quality calibrated sensors that continuously monitor the temperature. The measurement results are automatically recorded and saved in our secured database. Even though the alarm system is programmed separately for each medical refrigerator, the system provides a simple overview of all measurement results on all locations across the entire hospital. EXACTUM provides 24/7 online access to the results of the measured temperature. Automatic notifications in the event of deviations from the limit values enable worry-free workflow and a prompt response. With automatic recording of measurements and generation of reports, a review of the recorded measurements is fast and simple. At the same time, this type of data collection brings us closer to paperless operations.«

»In our field, we work with samples on a daily basis. Their official purpose or accreditation requires compliance with precisely set and traceable conditions of storage. Ensuring controlled conditions in a laboratory is essential for our undisturbed and reliable professional work. The modern EXACTUM systems for automatic control from LOTRIČ Metrology are of great assistance to us and by using them, we can ensure undisturbed traceability of the given parameters. They allow us to archive the measurement data and save our time. In the event of exceeding the limit values, the automatic notifications immediately provide information based on which we can take action in a rational manner and thus practically nullify the possibility for damage or the occurrence of various analytical errors. This kind of automatic monitoring of processes is no longer just a modern trend; it has become an investment in quality. The system for automatic control of different laboratory parameters and processes is a solution which every laboratory ought to consider in the near future.«

Professor Tadej Malovrh, PhD, Head of the National Veterinary Institute, Veterinary Faculty, University of Ljubljana

EXACTUM - a smart system for the automatic control - is a result of own knowledge and development of team of experts from accredited metrology laboratory LOTRIČ Metrology. It was built based on the needs for our own use. It is essential for providing controlled environmental conditions, for the quality and accuracy of all processes within the calibration laboratory. In accredited laboratory LOTRIČ Metrology system solution EXACTUM monitors a range of parameters. It collected a large amounts of data, with possibility on focusing only on the key parameters, while no data are lost and can be later analyzed. But the essence of the system lies not in the quantity of data collected, but in the fact that the key data are always available to the users of EXACTUM system solution and the extreme situations for which an alarm is triggered, happens as seldom as possible. Based on the analysis of the data we can quickly identify weaknesses and eliminate them.

They notify the user on deviations and by automatically recording and generating reports, they contribute to paperless operations.«

Peter Krelj, Head of Quality Management System Savatech d. o. o.

»The industry has an increasing demand for ensuring automatization and process optimisation. EXACTUM is a high technology system which uses sensors to detect parameters that directly affect the very efficiency of the production process. With certain products which are sensitive to relative humidity and temperature, it is very important to store them in appropriate conditions. To obtain accurate measurements, we have to ensure constant temperature in the measuring labs and the laboratory, which should not exceed the prescribed limit values. The automatic alarm which sets off if these values are exceeded is certainly a great advantage of this kind of systems, since it enables the users to react promptly to any deviations. Online measurements, an automatic printout of the results and archiving of documents ensure a reliable overview of everything that is going on.

In addition to monitoring a variety of processes, EXACTUM Industry also enables monitoring the management of favourable and safe conditions, which represents a precondition for our excellence.«
