  • Future-Ready Manufacturing – Modular automation solutions enable you to adapt to changing regulatory and market requirements.

How Does Conveyor Automation Improve Process Flow in Pharma Manufacturing?

Following the transfer of raw materials through controlled and validated systems, the pharmaceutical automation process workflow starts at the raw material handling and preparation. Processing steps, including mixing, granulation, or liquid formulation, are performed with automation to enhance accuracy in dosing and uniformity.

The products then go to the filling and primary packaging lines, where automation guarantees precision, speed and the prevention of contamination. Blister packs, bottles, or vials are automatically inspected for defects, correct weight, and seal integrity. Secondary packaging machinery performs the cartoning, labelling and serialisation for full traceability. Case packing and palletising are finished with end-of-line automation, including aggregation. Integrated control systems from ETI Automation provide synchronised operation, real-time monitoring and compliance-friendly data management throughout the workflow.
