Pharmaceutical manufacturing and packaging automation
The pharmaceutical industry develops, manufactures, and distributes large quantities of medicinal drugs for veterinary and human treatment.
As a result, its high-quality products need to be labelled and packaged at speed while being handled delicately. Developments in tamper-proof and child-resistant packaging are critical for ensuring patient safety, while a growing need for serialisation is increasing the traceability of products through the supply chain.

Pharmaceutical manufacturing capabilities
We are fully committed to creating unique automation systems which perform a range of pharmaceutical packaging and labelling processes. Our commitment to manufacturing innovation ensures your packaging automation system helps you to get the very best from your production lines.
The delicate handling of medicines and drugs designed for human consumption is crucial. Our product handling capabilities ensure packaged drugs and medicines can transition smoothly from one stage of the packaging process to the next.
Our precise dose control capabilities ensure the correct volume of any given drug is processed at high speed. This can be applied to whichever type of dosage form your line produces, from blister packs to vials.
Our secondary packaging solutions carefully handle any packaged dosages and place them into a carton ready for distribution.
Our specialist case packaging machinery can erect, seal, and fill cases of drugs or medicines at high speeds.
Pharmaceutical labelling is a critical segment of the manufacturing process. Our high-speed automated lines ensure your products are carefully and correctly labelled, and we have experience in creating solutions to apply tamper evident labelling on numerous parts of pharmaceutical products to enhance security.
Our track and trace systems are critical for ensuring your pharmaceutical product can be traced back to a specific link in the supply chain. The fast and accurate application of unique identifier codes aids the product return and recall process.
The quality and safety of the pharmaceutical industry’s products is paramount. Our product testing and inspection lines are designed to ensure the utmost quality of every product that leaves your factory.
Thanks to our in-house engineering expertise, we can advise on the suitability of your product’s design for process automation. From the type of packaging to its design, we will work with you to develop a product which is Design For Automation (DFA) ready.
