“The Automation Academy is the heart of our Technology Center,” explains Vice President of Solution Management and Marketing for Swisslog Healthcare, Michael Blondin. “It’s where we conduct hands-on training classes, test new technology and enable prospective customers to experience our products firsthand. Now, we’re making that environment accessible to everyone through this virtual experience.”
Within the site, visitors will see the organization’s proven pharmacy robotic solutions, BoxPicker® Automated Pharmacy Storage System and PillPick® Automated Packaging and Dispensing System.

In addition to the virtual experience, the organization is welcoming ASHP attendees to experience their Automation Academy through remote, personalized product demonstrations.
