First Pillpick Order In China

 The fully-automated inpatient pharmacy solution will be integrated with the pneumatic tube system previously installed by Swisslog. The PillPick order strengthens the company's positioning as a leading provider of total logistics solutions for hospitals in China.

PillPick is a pharmacy robot that automates the packaging, storage and dispensing of medications in unit doses.

Each bag is identified by the commercial name of the medication, the active ingredient, the production lot and expiry date in order to guarantee maximum safety to patients.

Bed-side verification represents another important safety step: the barcode of each medication will be checked with the barcode assigned to the patient, reducing almost to zero the possibility of medication error.
