Automated Transport Solutions

    Pneumatic Tube System

    Streamline internal logistics with automated pneumatic tube transport — delivering lab samples, medications, documents, and supplies across your facility in seconds, not minutes.

    Automated Hospital Transport, Redefined

    In the fast-paced environment of hospitals and healthcare facilities, seamless connectivity and streamlined operations are paramount. The Pneumatic Tube System (PTS) provides a reliable, rapid method of transporting physical items — such as lab samples, blood products, medications, and documents — through a network of tubes using pressurized air.
    Our PTS solutions are designed for hospitals, laboratories, and pharmacies where time-critical deliveries can directly impact patient outcomes. A sample that would take 15 minutes by foot can arrive at the lab in under 60 seconds through the pneumatic tube network.
    The system integrates with hospital information systems to provide complete chain-of-custody tracking, delivery confirmations, and analytics. With advanced features like soft-landing technology for fragile specimens and RFID-based carrier tracking, every delivery is handled with precision and care.
    From pharmacy automation to transport automation, pneumatic tube systems reduce staff walking time, minimize sample degradation, and accelerate turnaround times across all departments.

    Key Features & Capabilities

    Rapid Delivery

    Transport lab samples, medications, and documents at speeds up to 8 meters per second, reducing delivery times from minutes to seconds.

    Smart Carriers

    RFID-tagged carriers with soft-landing technology protect fragile specimens and enable real-time tracking throughout the tube network.

    Priority Routing

    Automated priority queuing ensures urgent deliveries (stat samples, emergency medications) reach their destination first.

    Chain of Custody

    Complete audit trail from send to receive with timestamp logging, user authentication, and delivery confirmation.

    System Management

    Central control station with touch-screen interface for system monitoring, diagnostics, and configuration management.
