Automated Packaging Systems and R/X Automation Solutions have combined engineering resources to develop the new Script Pack™ SPrint™ a high speed bag packaging system designed specifically for mail order pharmacy fulfillment. The system automatically prints and applies the shipping label, prints and inserts the order documents, verifies the prescription and patient information, loads the product, then seals the bag and completes the order. It produces mail-ready bags at speeds up to 720 orders per hour.

The Script Pack SPrint features a multi-layer verification process that ensures order accuracy. Medications are verified as they are conveyed to the packaging station, and again before they are loaded into the bag. Literature inserts are scanned as they are printed and prior to loading into the bag. Shipping labels, paperwork and medications all have a fail-safe reject or reset mode that ensures only complete and accurate orders leave the packaging area.

Automated Packaging Systems provides the bag packaging system for the Script Pack SPrint, while R/X Automation Solutions provides the software, controls, infeeds and system integration. Jim McFarland, Industry Specialist for Automated Packaging Systems says, “This fully automated system will increase productivity and lower packaging costs for virtually any pharmacy fulfillment application.” Tim Chambers, president of R/X Automation Solutions adds, “This is a fully customizable system that features a small footprint and can be easily integrated into existing pharmacy mail order operations with significant cost savings and quality improvement.”
