Customized Palletizing Solutions

Global Biotechnology Company relies on Fully Automated Palletizing Solutions from ASYS Life Science

For manufacturers of parenterals, ASYS offers decades of experience in tray handling and gripper development as well as expertise in holistic automation solutions at the highest level.

A well-known swiss pharmaceutical manufacturer has dedicated itself to an important task - to develop life-saving forms of therapy. This requires a smooth execution in the production processes. This project shows that occupational safety and user-friendliness are becoming increasingly important. The manufacturer set itself the goal of automating manual and repetitive tasks. In this way, while complying with occupational health and safety guidelines, the goal was to reduce the error rate and at the same time increase output. The focus of the solution is the automation of intralogistics processes. We worked out the appropriate solution in intensive cooperation with the customer, to automate and provide effective protection against glass-to-glass contact for the longer transports. This included not only the system itself, but also, in terms of design-to-manufacturing (DTM), the development of the material carriers. These are easy to automate and provide effective protection against glass-to-glass contact for the longer transports.

Automation of Loading and Unloading for the Inspection equipment

For the fully automated loading and unloading of the vials at the inspection and packaging lines, system solutions from ASYS TECTON are used. These are installed prior to the visual inspection of an important human plasma product, in order to inspect the transparent liquid for particles after filling and the following pasteurization. For this purpose, the vials must be separated and then recombined into SLC (small load carrier) boxes. The speed is up to 200 vials/min. for the different vial sizes. All line system components are connected to the customer's MES system (Manufacturing Execution System) via an interface implemented by ASYS.

The integration of a gantry axis system (x/y/z axes and lift system) inside the machine is more compact than a robotic solution, which enabled a very space-saving solution. Thanks to automatic loading and unloading and the direct linking of the transport of empty containers, employees could be relieved compared to the manual process, who can now fulfill important tasks elsewhere. In addition, the error rate could be reduced.

To ensure GxP-compliant (Good Practice) execution of all equipment, the validation experts from ASYS Life Science provided the appropriate qualification documentation. Especially with the introduction of the MDR (Medical Device Regulation), this service is not only requested in the pharmaceutical industry, but meanwhile also by medical device manufacturers in almost every project. ASYS is perfectly positioned to provide customers in the pharmaceutical and medical technology industry with customized documents, thus reducing project lead times and delivering GMP-compliant (Good Manufacturing Practice) systems.

Automation of Loading and Unloading for Packaging

Another work step was automated on the same machine base: Depalletizing to separate the 50 and 100 ml vials and subsequent connection to a packaging machine with a capacity of 220 vials/min. The automated unloading from SLC (small load carrier) boxes with a total weight of approx. 30 kg massively relieves the employees in their daily work. At the inlet and outlet, there is space for two Euro pallets (1200 x 800 mm) each, which corresponds to an autonomy of up to 1600 vials per pallet or approximately 15 min. The machines are designed in GMP model i.e. covered linear axes, exhaust filters in the control cabinet, easy to clean with smooth surfaces, covers of hoses, cables and axes and VA execution above the product. The equipment is also suitable to meet audit trail, user access and management regulations such as 21 CFR Part 11.

Further Project Examples

Loading and Unloading of Cartons with SLC‘s

Fully automated creation of combination packs from three diagnostic liquid cartridges. Trays are unloaded, grouped into individual pucks and buffered for subsequent cartoning and palletizing of packed carton trays. The speed is 120 cartridges/min or 360 cartons/min at infeed speed. With this we offer a complete customized solution for the diagnostics industry - all from one source!

End of line Packaging of Folding Cartons

Double depalletizer for unloading cartons and labeling multipacks. Cartons are separated and grouped into carton trays for subsequent repalletizing and labeling. To allow full recycling during the unloading and loading process, the layers are separated by intermediate layers and reused together with the carton trays. The automation solution is based on our PARIO 5000 platform, true to our vision: "Transforming ideas".
