Automated dispensing system (ADS) for pharmacies
Iso-Fixu shelves and retrieves medicines
The Iso-Fixu automated dispensing system speeds up routine pharmacy work and frees staff to concentrate on pharmaceutical advice and additional sales. Iso-Fixu takes care of the shelving and retrieval of prescription drugs arriving from the wholesaler. When the robot arm working in the automated dispensing system delivers the correct medicine packages to the counter, the pharmacist can concentrate on serving the customer without interruption. Iso-Fixu stores prescription drugs in a compact manner, freeing floor space for customer service and over-the-counter sales. Automation is the modern pharmacy’s choice.
More sales and more time for customers!
Stories of pharmacy automation
Extra revenue for Lielahti pharmacy
"Unpacking the deliveries used to take until three or four in the afternoon on Tuesdays. Now, the work is done by noon, or two o’clock at the latest. Our employees can serve customers instead; for example, our cosmetologists have time to see more customers now."
A powerful solution to a small and challenging space
"I wanted to maximise the space available for customer service, so we had to store the prescription drugs as compactly as possible. The delivery reception area is used efficiently now, and we can move the wholesale medicine crates conveniently to Iso-Fixu from the door."
“IF ANYTHING, OUR CONFIDENCE IN NEWICON HAS GROWN EVEN STRONGER”
"Iso-Fixu has reduced the strain on our staff and made their work faster. It has completely eliminated the monotonous task of stocking our storeroom shelves. Our employees have 30% more time to talk to customers now."
