Immerse yourself in our Automation Hubs

Our Automation Hubs are open to welcome customers and prospects who want to see, test, and experience our ecosystem. If you are interested in seeing and testing our automation solutions in real life, we look forward to meeting you there.

Discover the concept behind the Automation Hubs

The Automation Hubs aim to provide you an extensive experience. The concept is based on five pillars: learn, experience, collaborate, test, and innovate. Come see what we mean.

  • Harness the power of collaboration

    Our focus is always on our customers’ needs, as our products are meant to support patient care in the best way possible. To achieve this, it’s crucial for us to hear your honest opinion so we can continuously develop ourselves and our products. Do you have a specific feature or functionality in mind? Tell us more about it! We may already have something suitable in our portfolio or your need may not be unique, and we’ll evaluate if we can implement this requirement soon.

    Our Automation Hubs provide a space for exchange and collaboration, offering modern and inspiring environments for trainings, workshops, demo sessions, and meetings with stakeholders.

  • Experience the capabilities of automation

    At our hubs, you can experience our products and solutions firsthand. It’s not just about the look and feel – you’ll also directly experience the advantages of automation.

    You’ll learn more about the unit dose approach, how to store medications in an automated dispensing cabinet, and dispense medications from our automated pharmacy storage systems, all while watching carriers whizz through our pneumatic tube system.

    Visit our hubs to experience what our automation solutions can do for you. Check out the available products and solutions at each location further down the page.

  • Create space for innovations

    Our hubs also provide room for our engineers and technicians to innovate and lead change for better care.

    Our teams work to advance the development of our solutions, researching new features, developing new ideas, and making our solutions more user-friendly. They push the boundaries of what's possible with automation, whether it's hardware or software.

  • Learn and gather knowledge

    Those who invest in our automation solution are usually different from those who will actually operate with it. Users will likely face a change in their daily routines, which can be a challenge. To ease the transition, we offer live trainings for users and technicians at our Automation Hubs, as well as remote and online trainings. These trainings will give you the knowledge and skills needed to effectively use and maintain our automation systems.

  • We put our products to the test

    Our Automation Hubs are not just a place to connect with our customers. They are also where our engineers test, develop, and optimize our automation solutions – and sometimes fail. But this is the only way we can make progress.

    Our customer care teams also use the hubs to provide our own technicians with the best possible training for maintaining our machines and equipment.
