Core Technology

Technical Foundation for Smart Pharmacy Automation

Motion control, robotic handling, 3D vision, and unordered storage optimization support accurate, efficient, and scalable pharmacy workflows.

01

Motion Control

  • Combines position control and force control with adaptive control algorithms and multi-axis motion interpolation.
  • Position control accuracy reaches 0.05 mm, force control accuracy reaches 0.5 N, and the multi-axis interpolation cycle is 1 ms.
02

Robotic Manipulator

  • 23-bit high-resolution encoder full-servo control with a parallel dual-carriage anti-collision design.
  • Supports medicine widths from 25-180 mm and improves efficiency by 25%.
03

3D Vision

  • Combines PointNet point cloud segmentation and completion, binocular stereo vision for depth estimation, and YOLO deep learning for target detection.
  • Positioning accuracy reaches 0.1 mm, and target recheck accuracy reaches 100%.
04

Unordered Storage

  • Dynamically optimizes storage locations and manipulator paths based on medicine dimensions, turnover rate, expiry data, manipulator position, and hospital medication habits.
  • Space utilization improves by 33% compared with domestic competitors and 15% compared with imported brands.
