ATS Technology Makes Centralized Pharmacy Automation More Efficient

The ATS combination of modern equipment, open software, industry experience, and engineering expertise enables you to:

Double throughput in a 50% smaller footprint
Optimize inventory with data-driven insights
Handle rising prescription volumes with ease

Linear Motion Technology

Deploying a SuperTrak CONVEYANCETM system based on linear motion technology enables ATS to reduce footprint by 50%. The system is disruptive, because there is no need for RFID tags to track scripts. SuperTrak CONVEYANCETM is configurable to your existing floor plan, and its modularity allows for future expansion.

Digital Twin

ATS uses digital twin technology to simulate and validate your pharmacy automation system before it’s built. This means:

Lower risk: Every step is tested virtually before physical build
Faster validation: Design issues are solved early, saving time and costs
Higher confidence: Your system is qualified and production-ready from day one

Our digital twin process replicates:

3D models of machines
Electrical and packaging integration
PLC code performance
Full line simulation with SuperTrak CONVEYANCE™ and robotics

When your solution arrives on site, it has been proven in a virtual environment — ensuring an easier startup, fewer surprises, and faster ROI.
