From light-guided manual sorting to fully automatic handling of 1500 products per hour. Which approach fits your pharmacy, and what does it return?
Pharmacy automation means handing repetitive work in the prescription process over to machines: labelling, sorting and preparing medication per patient. It gives pharmacists and assistants their time back for the work where their expertise actually counts.
In practice it is rarely all or nothing. A pharmacy starting with light-guided sorting automates part of the handling. A central site processing thousands of prescriptions a day needs a very different system. FarmaSort builds both, and everything in between.
Three terms often used interchangeably, although they mean different things. The difference lies in where the work happens and how much the machine does on its own.
Sorting happens inside the pharmacy itself, close to the patient. Short path from delivery to hand-out, and stock stays on site. Viable from a single store onwards.

Learn moreThe machine reads, verifies and sorts by itself, with full traceability per product. What sets it apart is not the location but the degree of automation.
Learn moreThe trigger differs per pharmacy, but these four come up almost every time.
Sorting is repetitive work. A system that takes it over returns hours per week to assistants for patient contact.
Every step is scanned and verified. Our systems reach 99.9% accuracy, with a record per product.
