Stäubli’s Stericlean ultra-hygienic robots are designed to meet stringent cleanroom standards, including hydrogen peroxide decontamination.
Stäubli’s expertise in cleanroom robotic applications spans more than a decade. The Swiss company, which developed the first fully encapsulated robot design, uses its knowledge to offer a specific solution line for aseptic processes. Stericlean robots are compatible with vaporized and liquid H2O2 cleaning procedures and designed to perform in an ISO class 4 cleanroom environment.
In addition, Stäubli’s technology inside both the TX2 and TS2 Stericlean SCARA robots allows the use of a NSF H1 food-grade oil proprietary to the company to safely lubricate each axis without comprising performance. Theses axes are put in motion by Stäubli’s proprietary JCS drive technology on all models, which facilitates high-speed motion and high repeatability for ultra-short cycle times. The special seals and surface treatment, combined with the ability to pass all connections through the base and inside the arm, enable for shorter decontamination cycles in controlled/aseptic environment and laboratory integration of all the 4- and 6-axis Stericlean models.
At Interphex in New York City, April 28-30, 2020 in booth #2159, Stäubli representatives will demonstrate two robotic cells, one focusing on lab automation, the other one on drug-manufacturing processes. In addition, Stäubli representatives will also have the newly designed TS2-60 Stericlean in the booth.
Key features of the Stericlean robot range:
