The applications of multivariate models in process control for the tablet manufacturing process.

Model Application References
MSPC Based on the PCA model, the MSPC tool can be developed to control the granulation and drying process. After the deviation has been corrected, the process system can return to a stable state 279
An MSPC tool was built based on PLS and PCA models. The control chart was used to monitor humidity and temperature in the granulation process and to detect process abnormalities 280
PLS According to the feed-forward PLS model, it can be used to determine the process conditions based on the preceding conditions of unit operation 254
According to the PLS model, the feed-forward process can construct a control plan to determine the optimal process conditions. Then a release profile meeting the required quality was obtained 281
The feed-forward model for tablet compaction was developed based on NIR. Based on this model, the process parameters that meet the final product quality can be predicted 282
Based on NIR, the PLS model can measure the bulk density in real time. The measured signals can be used for forward feed control to ensure small density variation 283
Latent projection model According to the latent projection model, the variations in raw material and from batch-to-batch can be controlled by adjusting some process parameters 284
