Vetter to use robotics in aseptic production processes - Bioprocess Insider

Vetter says the use of artificial intelligence will become ever more specific in the biopharma production space and plans to use robotics in aseptic processes. German fill/finish and pharma services firm Vetter has completed a pilot project using a dual-arm robot in secondary packaging. "Robotics have been widespread in pharmaceutical manufacturing for many years. At Vetter, for example, we have been using classical robotics in our pharmaceutical production since the 1990's," Vetter spokesperson Markus Kirchner told this publication. "We see the usage of this technology becoming ever-more specific and evolving over time. This is evidenced in our example of collaborative work, which is essentially a close interaction of humans and machines."
