SCOPE OF PROJECT
At Discovery Park in Kent, UK they are at the forefront in exploring how to deploy mobile cobots in a fully automated test cycle workflow for the pharmaceutical industry. This test case was designed to test how The ER-FLEX robot can manage a fully automated sample test cycle of pills - or OSD-testing (Oral Solid Dosage) in professional terms.
SOLUTION
This case study shows how the ER-FLEX transports test samples across building floors, retracts samples from machines, inserts into other test machines. A repeatable work cycle over longer distances, each time with precision and stability. The robot holds a repetitive and tedious job, logging every move on it's route and thus ensuring traceability, repeatability and reliability througout the entire test procedure.
By introducing robots into OSD testing you remove the variability that is only natural when you have a human operator. But the advantages allround are not only the reduction of variability but also reduction in the costs
