Rx Systems, Inc.

Semi-Automated Pill Card Filling and Sealing Equipment

Reduce labor and improve workflow by implementing bulk pre-pack equipment for your high moving generics. Three levels of equipment are available — AutoFiller, AutoTrans Shuttle, and AutoTrans Conveyor. Rx Systems’ motorized AutoSealer is the fastest automated sealer in the marketplace, providing a three-second seal. The newest version, Autosealer 1002, can seal single-dose (1/2" paddle) or multi-dose (3/4" paddle) products without any conversion. Add the AutoFiller and you have the most affordable automation for bulk pre-packing pill cards with filling/sealing capacity up to 280 pill cards per hour using one operator. The AutoFiller is designed for pharmacies servicing 500-1,000 residents, and pre-packing a two-week supply of your top 20-50 generics. Batch filling a minimum of 50 pill cards or more is ideal. The AutoTrans is available in two platforms — Shuttle (AXS) and Conveyor (AXC). Both units can package traditional pill cards or unit dose. The AXS has a manual filler/sealer station that shuttles between the two with a loading and inspection station in between. Max throughput is 350 pill cards filled and sealed per hour, and is ideal for pharmacies servicing 700-2,000 residents. The linear high-speed AXC peaks at 600+ cards per hour, and is the only unit on the market that also applies the pre-pack label vs. doing so in a separate post-production step.
