Central fill and central distribution in a single solution.
Health systems have been asked to buy central fill as a fill-floor decision, then solve distribution to hospitals, clinics, and cabinets as a separate project with separate vendors. RoboPharma solves for both.
The RoboPharma difference
Beyond the fill floor
Central fill and central distribution on one platform, so consolidating fill across sites does not mean solving distribution to hospitals, clinics and cabinets as a separate project with separate vendors.
New Build
A new facility, designed around the automation rather than retrofitted to it. Floor plan, throughput model, and staffing plan built together.
See how a new build worksReplacement & Expansion
An existing operation at its ceiling, or automation that cannot cover the formulary your sites actually dispense. Modular architecture expands capacity without interrupting the operation you are already running.

One platform for your entire pharmacy operation
Order status, bulk labeling, pharmacist verification, packing and manual fill, all in one system of record that integrates with your existing software.

Serving enterprise needs
Finance. Operations. Compliance. IT.
Finance & ROI
Up to 50 percent greater labor efficiency and up to 50 percent less floor space, with capacity added as configuration rather than as another capital project. Automating up to 90 percent of oral solids dispensing moves pharmacist time toward clinical functions and technician time toward higher-value work.
Operations & throughput
5 to 30 filling points per wall, sections of 20 cells, and up to 120 cells on a single conveyor. Cells operate independently, so servicing one does not stop the line, and in-facility self-calibration keeps a cell from waiting on a service call.
Regulatory & compliance
Inherited, remote, and manual PV2, matched to what each State Board of Pharmacy allows, which matters once consolidated fill crosses state lines. DSCSA serialization and recall search by NDC or lot, inside the system of record.
IT & integration
Axona integrates with EMR and pharmacy management systems, including Epic Willow. Integration is handled as part of standard implementation, alongside purchasing and financial reporting systems, and shipping and manifest systems. One platform from order intake through shipment, with real-time perpetual inventory and DSCSA traceability connected to pharmacy, financial, and shipping systems.
Questions
Health-system FAQ
Does Axona integrate with EMR and pharmacy management systems?
Axona integrates with EMR and pharmacy management systems, including Epic Willow. Integration is handled as part of standard implementation, alongside purchasing and financial reporting systems, and shipping and manifest systems.
Can one platform run both central fill and central distribution?
Yes. The same platform runs central fill, mail order, direct-to-patient, central distribution, warehouse fulfillment, clinic distribution and cabinet replenishment. Adding a workload is a configuration rather than another vendor and another integration.
