Transforming the future of drug manufacturing with robotic solutions

16 September, 2025 | ChargePoint Technology

We’re excited to unveil our advanced robotic material handling solution, designed to redefine safety, efficiency, and automation in drug production.

This next generation system is built for pharmaceutical manufacturers seeking to modernise and future proof their operations. Whether it’s upgrading segments of existing lines into semi-continuous cells or building fully autonomous facilities, our robotics solution offers the flexibility to meet evolving industry demands for delivering life-saving drugs to market faster and more reliably.

By removing the need for manual handling, our robotic system reduces ergonomic strain, minimises human error, and significantly lowers the risk of cross-contamination all while boosting overall operational efficiency.

This innovation brings together key technologies, the PuroGrip, PuroVaso containers, and the ChargePoint Split Butterfly Valve. This combination enables a high-performance, contained material handling system that’s easy to deploy using pre-engineered, off-the-shelf components.

The PuroGrip is a purpose built robotic interface designed to connect seamlessly with robotic arms operating in pharmaceutical environments. It enables effortless docking of PuroVaso containers with ChargePoint’s automated SBV, ensuring a fully contained and efficient material transfer process.

 

Our CEO, Chris Eccles, commented on the news: “Contained robotic powder handling is the future of the industry. Recent reports have found that the pharmaceutical robots industry is expected to rise at a CAGR of 6.7% over the next 10 years (1) and we have already seen many of our customers turning to us for a solution to advance their current production processes.

“We understand how important speed, quality and safety is to our customers, and we will continue to evolve our solutions to provide our customers with the best technology to meet their manufacturing needs”.
