ionSuite software:

Doran Formula Loader – For precise formulations, validation to meet government regulations and QC certifications, and ingredient traceability. Improve accountability when creating a product manually or with a batching, dosing, or process control system. 

Included with the FC6300 Formula Control Scale and BC6500 Bulk Control Indicator.

Doran Inventory Traxx – As batches are run on the scale, ingredient usage is tracked and inventory totals are updated, and ingredient Lot IDs are tracked in real-time. Avoid costly inventory control errors that affect budgeting, forecasting, resource allocation and strategies.

Doran Synapse – View real-time data from the plant floor to quickly assess production batch, standard deviation, the number of rejected items, time stamped weight readings, frequency distribution and other critical quality control data. 

Included with the Selecta In-Motion Checkweigher series of scales.

Doran QC Weigh – Configure static checkweighers to follow QC processes, collect data and provide reporting on product weights and accuracy. Use unique operator IDs, scheduled sample intervals with alarms, and data collection to confirm quality control tasks.
