When TranspoNet becomes part of your hospital’s infrastructure, its pneumatic tube system safely and quickly transfers medications, blood, lab samples, and documents between departments for traceable and secure deliveries. TranspoNet, our automation solution is not a single product. It’s an integrated tube system that moves materials between the hospital pharmacy, laboratory, and patient wards.
Automation – a time saver with no manual transport
Secure delivery – each user has different access permissions
Real-time updates – track contents in carriers with RFID technology
Less downtime – technicians identify errors with quick fixes
If you currently use TranspoNet pneumatic tube system and are running on TranspoNet 5.3 software or older, the equipment no longer meets the standards required to ensure safe, reliable, and fast clinical operations. Support for older versions has ended, but upgrading is simple.
Build a tube system with components designed to support your workflow and elevate patient care.
A TranspoNet pneumatic tube system consists of various components. Stations, switches, transfer units, and side channel blowers are combined to create a system that meets the requirements and structure of a particular hospital. The system is controlled with the help of the TranspoNet software. Side channel blowers use ambient air to create a flow that moves the carriers through the system. Suction and pressure air realize the transport direction.
A pneumatic tube system can be planned for both new and existing buildings. The pneumatic tube center, where the central junction is located, is usually in basement areas that are easily accessible for maintenance. The tube network typically runs in utility shafts, through walls, floors, and under suspended ceilings of the hospital, connecting individual areas or even multiple buildings.
A pneumatic tube system is mainly used to send medications, blood, laboratory samples, documents or supplies. Depending on the system, goods up to 1.5 kg can be sent via each carrier. In certain cases, exceptions can be made.
Software controls the transport through the pneumatic tube system. It sends and receives information relevant to the transport. After the caregiver enters the container into the pneumatic tube station and selects a destination, the RFID transponder is automatically scanned and assigned to the destination. The software generates a transport ID and calculates the optimal route to the recipient.
