ID6s: High-Quality Mobile Workstation for Pharma & Clean Rooms

Introduction

When working in pharmaceutical manufacturing, life sciences, and clean room environments, you need equipment that enhances workflow while meeting strict hygiene and compliance requirements, such as Annex 1. The ID6s mobile workstation is fully enclosed in 304L stainless steel, ensuring unmatched durability, easy cleanability, and seamless IT integration.

Designed and manufactured in Ireland and the UK, the ID6s is engineered for Grade C clean rooms and beyond, with hot-swappable lithium-ion batteries, real-time software access, and modular adaptability. It provides operators with reliable, mobile IT access in highly regulated environments.

What is the ID6s?

The ID6s is a fully enclosed, stainless steel mobile workstation built for clean room compliance and seamless IT access. Its robust construction, ergonomic design, and mobility make it ideal for pharmaceutical, biotech, and life sciences settings where workflow efficiency and hygiene are critical.

Key features of the ID6s:

1. Fully enclosed stainless steel construction: The entire unit—including the base, work surface, and screens—is made of 304L stainless steel, ensuring durability, cleanability, and compliance with high-grade GMP clean room requirements.
2. Hot-swappable lithium-ion batteries: Enables 24/7 operation with uninterrupted power, reducing downtime.
3. Single or dual-screen options: Screens are stacked vertically (one over the other), unlike the ID5s, where they are side by side.
4. Touch & non-touch screen options: Touch screens come as default, but can be configured as non-touch.
5. Ergonomic & mobile: Electronically height-adjustable for enhanced usability, allowing comfortable operation across different workstations.
6. Fully modular & customizable: Supports barcode scanners, label printers, tablets, and micro PCs, and thin clients. Upgrades and maintenance can be easily completed by a super-user on-site, eliminating the need for an external engineer and minimizing downtime.
7. Real-time data access: Direct integration with Manufacturing Execution Systems (MES), Distributed Control Systems (DCS), and Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) for improved workflow automation.
8. IT security compliance: Supports micro PCs and thin clients, allowing organisations to align with corporate IT security policies.

Where are the ID6s used?

The ID6s is optimized for industries requiring high hygiene standards and IT mobility:

1. Pharmaceutical Manufacturing: Supports batch tracking, MES access, regulatory compliance, and real-time monitoring in clean rooms.
2. Biotechnology & Life Sciences Labs: Enhances sample tracking, process monitoring, and workflow automation.
3. Warehouses & Packaging Areas: Improves barcode scanning, label printing efficiency, and digital documentation.
   

Who uses the ID6s?

1. Operators: Easily access the Manufacturing Execution System (MES) and Standard Operating Procedure (SOPs) on a full 24-inch screen, ensuring clear visibility, reduced errors, and efficient process execution without constant scrolling or switching between applications.
2. Warehouse teams: Improved inventory management with barcode scanning, enabling real-time tracking, reducing manual errors, and ensuring accuracy and efficiency.
3. Pharma & Biotech professionals: Ensure real-time access to manufacturing data.

How do the ID6s improve clean room operations?

The ID6s is purpose-built for environments that require mobility, hygiene, and seamless IT integration:

1. Uninterrupted power supply: Hot-swappable lithium-ion batteries allow for continuous operation.
2. Custom IT integration: Supports micro PCs, barcode scanners, and label printers.
3. Regulatory compliance: Certified for GMP clean rooms, ensuring stringent hygiene and operational standards.
4. Hygienic & easy to clean: Fully enclosed stainless steel design prevents contamination and allows effortless disinfection.
5. Optimized workflow automation: Reduces unnecessary movement by providing direct access to essential manufacturing and quality control software.
6. Ergonomic & adjustable: Electronically height adjustable for operator comfort.

With its durable stainless steel build and customizable design, the ID6S is the perfect solution for Pharma and Biotech clean rooms.

Difference between ID5s and ID6s

While both the ID5s and ID6s mobile workstations are designed for Pharmaceutical, Biotech, and clean room environments, the ID6s offer enhanced features for stricter hygiene and compliance requirements. The key differences include:

1. Material & design: The ID6s is fully enclosed in stainless steel, while the ID5s have some exposed components. This makes the ID6s easier to clean and suitable for higher-grade clean rooms.
2. Screen configuration: The ID5s have side-by-side dual screens, while the ID6s feature a landscape, vertically stacked dual-screen setup, offering a more compact, space-efficient design.
3. Electronic height adjustment: The ID6s include electronic height adjustment, while the ID5s do not.
4. Custom IT integration: The ID6s support barcode scanners, label printers, and thin clients, whereas the ID5s is primarily designed for micro PCs.

Both models are highly mobile, modular, and designed for real-time IT integration, but the ID6s is the ideal choice for industries requiring the highest standards of hygiene and compliance.

Cutting-edge Battery Technology

The ID6s lithium-ion battery system ensures maximum uptime and easy maintenance:

1. Hot-swappable batteries: Support 24/7 operation with minimal downtime.
   
2. Fast charging: Batteries charge from 0 to 100% in 2–3 hours.
   
3. Flexible charging options: Charge directly via a wall socket or an external charging station.
4. Direct DC power efficiency: The ID6s battery is much more efficient than standard AC-powered alternatives, eliminating power loss from inverters.
5. Regulated charging options: Standard 250Wh battery included; 500Wh option available for extended runtime.
   
6. Battery life guarantee: After 2,500 life cycles, batteries retain at least 60% runtime.

Regulatory Compliance

As a manufacturer, Kinetic-ID self-certifies under CE regulations. All power and battery electronics comply with EN60601, ensuring medical-grade safety and performance.
