Robot in the medicine, far mA and Life Science industry

Roboter in der Medizin-, Pharma- und Life Science-Industrie
For many years one used up oneself with St�ubli of the development of robots for employments in the medicine, chamfering mA and Life Science industry. Today St�ubli robots are first choice for applications in these industries. For�� The optimal in each case machine is production environments of the specification A to D fast within the broad program at Scara and folding arm robots. With employments, with which it arrives not only on speed and precision of the robots, but on factors such as particle emission, special surfaces which can be cleaned easily and extreme reliability, robot from the house St�ubli is valid for many years as reference. The precision machines are first choice for employments in laboratory automation, the medicine research and - dosage, the medicine and pharmaceutical industry as well as with automation in hospitals and not least with the robot-supported surgery. The pure space fitness of the robots is one the substantial basic condition for the employment in these special ranges. Both the Scara as well as the Knickarmkinematiken of the manufacturer is in the standard versions for the employment in pure areas suitably, beyond that is available already many models in special Cleanroom variants. The new Scaras of the TS-series particularly fast with 100 Picks per minute fulfills the pure class of area 6 in the execution with bellows according to ISO 14644-1. At present the series consist of the two models TS60 and TS 80 with 600 and 800 millimeters of range with an identification rising up load of two kilograms. Still in this year the smaller TS40 with 400 millimeters of range is to complete the series. The new SCARA robots score with a repetition accuracy of + - 0.01 millimeters and are suited owing to their smooth, easily to cleaning surfaces, its pure space fitness and its outstanding performance almost for various applications in the medical technology. In pure areas at home those series TX and RX gives it alternatively in special Cleanroom remarks, which were conceived for the fulfillment of the strict requirements by pure areas. Two models of the TX-generation are available in remarkable special designs. But in sequence: All Sechsachser of the series TX and RX is characterised by their singular, fully totally enclosed structure with wiring lying inside and integrated propulsion technology. Thus the robots are easy to clean and already fulfill in the standard version the pure class of area ISO 5. In the optional Cleanroom variant, these robots carry the contraction CR in the product designation, fulfill them the specifications of the pure class of area ISO 4. at two robots, which are particularly gladly used straight in medicine, pharmaceutical ones and biotechnology, show St�ubli, what is technologically possible at present. The compact Sechsachser TX60 and TX60L as well as TX90 and TX90L does not fulfill in super Cleanroom execution the extremely high requirements of the pure class of area ISO 2. however thereby to enough: Both machines are available in so-called Stericlean execution, which makes its employment possible on extreme laboratory conditions. St�ubli Robotics penetrates with the Stericlean versions into ranges, within which the use of robots was valid to date as impossible. The Stericlean robots can owing to a special packaging, which execution of particularly stressed parts in high-grade steel and a special surface treatment permanently and reliably in hydrogen peroxide environments work. For the first time thereby sterilisation or decontamination processes in research labs, the medical technology, in addition, in manufacturing and production becomes automatable. Thus the crucial break-through succeeds with the efforts to the automation of such processes. Trailblazing applications in MedizintechnikAber also within other ranges the medical technology work satisfactorily St�ubli robots each day on the new. Thus a St�ubli TX40CR transfers the composition in the pure room module Cytocare, which was developed of the Italian manufacturer Loccioni in co-operation with Health Robotics, of toxic preparations for chemotherapies. The slim Sechsachser can proportion the individual components at cytostatic drugs highly exact and flexibly in ampuls, syringes or infusion bag racking. The robot handling of the highly dangerous cytostatic drugs brings advantages for patients and medical personnel. The latter does not come during the medicine production with the dangerous materials into contact, so that health risks are impossible. The patients can rely on an accurate dosage of the individual components by the robot, which is supervised additionally over an integrated quality control system. Within a similar range a St�ubli TX60LCR lies. In the so-called RIVA system of intelligently hospital of system the highly precise robot transfers filling of injection syringes and infusion bags with arbitrary medicine dosages. The Sechsachser seizes itself in addition the necessary Fl�schchen and syringes from magazines of the cell, draws at the sucking in station the desired dose up and ejects the labeled syringe over a pit. Alternatively the dosage can be injected also into an infusion bag. The system, which works with commercial medicine bottles, syringes and infusion bags of different size, is suitable both for the patient-specific single dosage and for mass preparations in large numbers of items. Also with the production of medicine-technical products of plastic offerers set St�ubli strengthened by injection moulding machines on robots from the house. Such injection moulding machines must be qualified usually for the employment in the pure area, which causes the use of Cleanroom robots. The partial spectrum, which can be squirted on such machines, is broadly diversified. The spectrum reaches of medicine supply systems such as syringes, infusion sets, Transfusions and dialysis equipment over centrifuges, blood filter, Inhalatoren, diabetes Care products up to implants to the adjustment of fractures. Apart from the pure space fitness the employment makes further demands within spraying casting cells against the robots. So the machines must be particularly compactly built to disturb in order place saving in the correct place to be integrated to be able without the laminar river of air. In addition the robots with the high temperatures must come with the plastic injection moulding by right and be extremely reliable. All factors, which explain the high market penetration of the St�ubli TX-robots within these ranges.
