Stäubli to showcase new technology for medical industry automation at OrthoTec 2013
June 5-6, 2013 in Winona Lake, Indiana
Stäubli robotics is proud to be a part of OrthoTec, the premier event for orthopedic innovators and leaders from device manufacturers June 5-6, 2013 in Winona Lake, Indiana. The educational conference program features the industry's very best subject matter experts to discuss timely and relevant topics that will impact your device projects in the years to come. The exhibition is ideal setting for in-person meetings with top contract services and technology providers, and for hands-on access to the materials, technology, and services for orthopedic device development.
A medical industry automation leader, Stäubli will be showcasing lab automation solutions from the life science, pharmaceutical and medical laboratories industry leaders at booth 209. The clean, highly accurate range of four and six-axis robots provide the ideal solution to the unique demands of the life science industry including:
• Cleanroom applications
• Handling of vaccine flasks
• Automation of cell culture
• Seeding bottle gassing and cell scraping
• Drug discovery
• Plate handling
Stäubli also has an entire robot series designed the stringent requirements of VHP (Vapor Hydrogen Peroxide) decontamination in isolator-barrier systems. Complex surface coatings and full encapsulation enable the robots to withstand hostile environments, even those involving corrosive H2O2. Their rigid structure delivers better dynamic performance, while specialized technology eliminates restrictive enclosures, problems related to glove ports and heavy mechanical arms, and other challenges typically associated with robotics in isolator systems.
Be sure to stop by booth 209 to learn more about these exciting products.

Featured Product
The ERT150 - Dorner's Next Evolution of Edge Roller Technology Conveyors
The next evolution in Dorner's Edge Roller Technology conveyor platform, the ERT®150, is ideal for small and light-load assembly automation, as well as medical and medical-device assembly application. The ERT platform is the only pallet conveyor of its kind available with an ISO Standard Class 4 rating for cleanroom applications. Earning the ISO Standard 14644-1 Class 4 rating means Dorner's ERT150 will conform and not contribute to the contamination of cleanrooms to those standards. As implied by its name, the ERT150 (Edge Roller Technology) uses rollers to move pallets through the conveyor smoothly with no friction (a byproduct often seen in belt-driven platforms). The conveyor's open design eliminates concerns of small parts or screws dropping into rollers and causing conveyor damage or jamming. The ERT150 is suited to operate in cleanroom environments requiring a pallet handling conveyor. It is capable of zoning for no or low-back pressure accumulation and is ideal for automation assembly applications within industries including medical devices, electronics, consumer goods among others.
