Controls technology improvements Increase efficiencies for robotic aseptic syringe filler/capper

摘要

It wasn't that long ago that packaging robots focused on end-of-line functions, such as case packing and palletizing. In December, ESS Technologies introduced its TaskMate® Robotic Syringe Filler and Capper. The system integrates two FANUC clean class LR Mate robots with RABS (Restricted Access Barrier System) from SKAN to meet the stringent require-ments for 503B sterile pharmaceutical com-pounding applications. ESS designed the system to increase production speeds and efficiency, reduce scrap and rework, and reduce overhead while protecting both products and employees from harm. The system can fill and cap up to 15 syringes/min. TaskMate Robotic Systems is ESS's trademarked brand for a variety of robotic pick-and-place systems. The SF20 syringe filler is a member of that brand.
