Stäubli

Industrial manufacturing of injectable drug products presents very different and difficult challenges when compared to other industrial manufacturing applications. In order to enhance patient safety and ensure product quality the Pharmaceutical Industry has been implementing systems called Advanced Aseptic Processing (AAP) systems. Advanced Aseptic Processing systems utilize advanced forms of automation, robotics, machine vision, and separative devices in an effort to protect the pharmaceutical product from contamination. In the pharmaceutical industry these separative devices fall into two categories: Restricted Access Barrier Systems (RABS) and isolators.
