Description
A030512
Defect was found during normal production (random sample) and always
after an event
•Re-start after normal and short stop
•After packaging material splicing
•After strip splicing
A040512
Defect was found always after an event (re-start after normal stop and
paper & strip splicing) and during normal production (random sample )
The defect pattern are single peak or irregular peaks with wash out effect

Hypotesis
• Tube Integrity
NMD
o Paper twisted
o Splicing paper
NMD
o LS Short stop element
• Package Integrity
• System Tightness
o Wrong/ broken gasket
NMD
o Pin holes
• Weak CIP (Product residue) NMD
• Incorrect Over and Under pressure of aseptic chamber

NMD
• Worn out TS component (dollies, Inductor, etc)
• Personnel hygiene

Package Integrity
• Red ink penetration less than 1 mm encountered on bottom and top
of upper heat pattern
• TS fold was noticed intermittently on fin corner which cause bending
off almost touch ridge

Packaging Material Splicing
LS Blocked seal on
area which attached
by tape
• Packaging material splicing was done manually

(using tape). On area which is attached by tape,
overlap and LS strip is detached.
• This action resulted in open tube and re-infection
from chilled water
Detached overlap

Improving ASU and splicing paper automatically

•Splicing paper automatically without tape and followed by short stop
Overlap sealing paper width = 10 mm with good seal
Sealing alignment = 1 mm
Small part of overlap besides double layer paper detached
LS strip was detached on double paper area
Little product leak through spliced area after pressure test
Other reject packs have good seal of SA/LS strip and no product leakage after pressure
test

Additional data Unsterile B060512
Based on Production record on August 2011, problems encountered on TBA/8 line A:
•Packaging material splicing always done manually using tape
•Paper twisted occurred after packaging material splicing which caused paper breaks on aseptic chamber
•After re-start or start of production, paper is out of track (cause open tube)
•Edge weaking detected during re-start after short or normal stop

Unsterile B060512
 Defect was found during normal production (random sample) and
after an event
• Re-start after normal and short stop
• After packaging material splicing (always)
• After strip splicing
 Defect packs were found mostly in the beginning and end of

production
 Spoilage of B060512 caused by Bacillus cereus

Hypotesis
• System Tightness
o Wrong/ broken gasket
o Pin holes
• Weak CIP (Product residue)

Investigation result
• 17:43-18:57 normal stop for break fasting, machine was stop more than 40
minutes and no inching records during stop
• During Production, paper often jammed in Bending Roller ASU
• On 22:00-22:38 Packaging material breaks in Tab applicator
• Package Integrity:
 Red ink penetration less than 1 mm encountered on bottom and top of upper heat
pattern
 TS fold was noticed intermittently on fin corner which cause bending off almost
touch ridge
• ABC Valve :
 Product residues were found on valve A and valve A housing
 Gasket on C-valve is broken
 Product residue were found on C-valve and C-valve clamp ring

Investigation result
Aseptic lines:
 Until 15 August 2011, Sensor level (connection from AT2 to TBA/8 line A use
wrong gasket). Moreover, gasket have already broken when clamp ring was
opened.
 During weekly care on September 23, 2011, product residue was sticking
onto sensor level
 Product residue was found on clamp ring of sensor level
 Product residue also noticed on pipe connection from aseptic tank to filling
machine (valve A)
 Product residue also found on end valve cluster
