HANDLING WHAT MATTERS
The syringes your people still move.
Automated.
The Retrayer transfers syringes between tubs and Rondo trays in both directions, at up to 200 parts per minute. The pitch is converted automatically.

Your syringes come in one format.
Your next machine needs another.
Stored and shipped in Rondo trays, inspected in tubs, or the other way round. Every change of format between two process steps means moving every syringe to a new pitch. Every tray, every shift.
STORED IN
Rondo trays
Syringes arrive and wait in Rondo trays.
YOUR MACHINE
Inspection in tubs
Your inspection machine takes nested syringes in tubs.
SHIPPED IN
Rondo trays
After inspection, they leave in Rondo trays again.
Tub to Rondo tray.
And back.
TUB TO RONDO TRAY
Tub › Smart carrier › Two SCARA robots › Rondo tray
A gripper lifts a full row out of the nest and converts the tub pitch to the Rondo tray pitch. A smart carrier distributes the syringes to two SCARA robots, which set them into the tray one by one.
RONDO TRAY TO TUB
Rondo tray › Two SCARA robots › Smart carrier › Tub
The same cell works in reverse. Cameras verify quantity and loading throughout the process.
Your tray formats change.
The gripper stays.
One
gripper for many Rondo tray sizes.
A multi-syringe gripper places syringes individually and in several steps. That covers different Rondo tray sizes and fills the gaps left by missing syringes.
Zero
glass-to-glass contact.
Every syringe is handled individually, without feed screws or other mechanisms that could damage the product.
Built on the MicroFactory Ecosystem.
One MicroFactory Core under every ESSERT module: standardized baseframe, interfaces, controller, safety and software. The Retrayer is the job on top, built on the handling modules of the ecosystem.
FAQ
Questions
we get asked.
What comes up in first calls, answered short.
The long answers we bring to the meeting.
Which tray sizes does the Retrayer handle?
Many different Rondo tray sizes. The multi-syringe gripper places syringes individually and in several steps, so one gripper covers different formats.
Does it work in both directions?
Yes. The same cell transfers syringes from tub to Rondo tray and from Rondo tray back to tub.
How is the pitch converted?
The syringe gripper has an integrated cylinder mechanism that converts tub pitch to Rondo tray pitch automatically.
What happens with missing syringes in a tub?
The gripper places syringes individually and compensates for missing products. Cameras verify quantity and loading.
How many trays does the buffer hold?
Up to 80 Rondo trays, in four stacks of 20.
Can the tubs come straight from Gaylord boxes?
Yes. A RoboTub depalletizing module feeds tubs from Gaylord boxes, including nests and divider layers.
