ABOUT ESSERT ROBOTICS
Too important to fail.
Behind every medicine and every medical device are critical production steps, too important to fail. We automate them: with standardized robotic modules, engineered in premium quality, so manufacturers can rely on every step that matters.

FOUNDER
“Every medicine and every medical device depends on a few production steps that must not fail. We build the modules that take those steps over, standardized so a customer can rely on them for the life of a line.”
Christopher Essert
Founder & CEO, ESSERT Robotics
WHAT WE BUILD
Three pillars. One platform.
Every ESSERT solution is built on the MicroFactory Ecosystem: the same frame, interfaces, controller, safety and software under every module. What differs is the process on top.
HANDLING WHAT MATTERS
Material Handling
Robotic loading and unloading around the filling, assembly, inspection and packaging machines you already run. Tubs, vials, trays, bins. Independent of who built the machine.
Material Handling
ASSEMBLING, INSPECTING AND PACKAGING WHAT MATTERS
Assembly, Inspection & Packaging
MicroFactory modules for syringes, autoinjectors, devices and blisters. Standardized interfaces, controls and visualization, so one line covers high-mix, low-volume production down to batch size one.
MicroFactory Ecosystem
CONNECTING WHAT MATTERS
Mobile Robotics
Material flow between stations: pallets, containers, line supply. An extension of the stationary modules, built for GMP environments.
Mobile Robotics
Premium quality
GMP from concept through operation. ISO 9001 certified since 2021. Every module is qualified on its own before it reaches your site.
Innovation
ISPE Robotics Application of the Year Award four years in a row, each for a customer or partner project.
Reliability
Contractually guaranteed technical availability. Delivery on schedule. Service teams in Bruchsal, Germany and Morrisville, North Carolina.
