Challenges in medicine roll sorting
Medicine rolls require batch tracking, expiry date control and efficient route sorting for pharmacies.
Batch tracking
Each medicine roll must be traceable by batch and lot number.
Expiry date control
FIFO processing is essential for medication management.
Pharmacy routes
Efficient sorting by delivery routes for pharmacies.
From roll to route
A pharmacy working with individualised dispensing produces rolls per patient and delivers per route, per care facility or per collection slot. The sorting work sits between those two orderings. That work is awkward because it happens at the last possible moment by definition. The rolls are only finished when production is finished, and the delivery run leaves at a fixed time. Everything in between is peak. The MicroSorter handles up to 1500 rolls per hour and stages them directly at route or facility level. That makes the time between the last roll and the departing van predictable instead of tense.
Ten years of pharmacy logistics behind the same machine
Collo-X is the logistics brand of FarmaSort, which has supplied sorting systems to pharmacies and hospitals across Europe for more than ten years. Sorting medicine rolls is one of the processes that experience comes from. As a result the machine is not designed for throughput alone but above all for verifiability: every roll scanned, every destination recorded and every action retrievable when somebody asks about it later. Manufacturing, installation and service run through Wijchen, with the same people who keep the existing pharmacy installations running.
