First ISPE DACH Robotics Award – Meet the winner
The winner of the first ISPE D/A/CH Robotic Award 
is announced
„The winner of the first ISPE D/A/CH – Germany, Austria, Switzerland 2022 Robotic Award is groninger & co. gmbh , SKAN AG and PSM GmbH for the RoboCell.
Why did we choose this winner?
The jury was deeply impressed by the combination of efficiency gains through the robot and avoidance of manual handling in the sterile production environment
The robot takes over tasks such as
- format change at the push of a button, automated installation of sterile parts
- completely avoids handling, maintenance or changing of gloves
- and makes it possible to reduce the size of the sterile area and thus shorten decontamination cycles
In addition, it was shown and implemented for the first time that it is possible to ensure that ony first-air comes into contact with the product by means of optimized airflow.
