Healthcare Packaging Conference & Workshops May 27, 2010 | Princeton, NJ

Healthcare Packaging presents its fourth annual educational and networking conference. Formerly named Pharmaceutical Packaging Forum, the 2010 event offers a variety of afternoon workshops for more focused learning. The conference and workshops will be held at the Hyatt Regency, Princeton located in Princeton, NJ

ESS Technologies, Inc. will present two workshops at this event. The topics are:

Workshop #1 Automating Primary Assembly and Packaging Processes (2:25pm to 3:10pm): This workshop offers a primer for pharma and medical device manufacturers looking to automate their assembly and/or primary packaging processes. The workshop will cover different types of automation and where they are best applied in an assembly or primary packaging line, including case studies on a variety of automation applications.

Workshop #2 Automating Secondary Packaging Processes (3:30pm to 4:15pm): Case packing and palletizing are traditionally the most labor intensive steps in the packaging process, but the recent affordability and increasing flexibility of robotics has allowed manufactures to fully automate these secondary packaging processes. This workshop will outline the advantages of robotics in these packaging applications as well as give the attendee a better understanding of how these systems are specified and implemented to increase productivity and line efficiency.
