Denver, CO (PRWEB) July 21, 2007 -- Swisslog, a leader in automated materials management for the healthcare industry, will exhibit in booth #1211 at the AHRMM 45th Annual Conference & Exhibition in San Diego, August 12-15, 2007.
Swisslog will showcase its robotic vehicle system, TransCar. The TransCar automatic guided vehicle (AGV) system is designed specifically to meet the needs of the hospital environment. TransCar serves departments throughout the hospital distributing bulk food, central/sterile supplies, patient food and nourishments, soiled dishes, clean and soiled linens, trash and regulated medical waste.
TransCar carts can be fitted with RFID tags to automatically identify the cart type, input default destinations, and track the activity and timing of individual carts. Ongoing operational efficiencies are gained by automating the delivery of carts filled with various materials.
Swisslog's pneumatic tube systems and the PillPick automated drug management solution will also be on display at the Swisslog booth. Automated material transport solutions are in greater demand in today's hospital because of demographic and healthcare spending trends.
