The Optima FPA assembles the components of pen injectors either fully or semi-automatically. The compact machine platform can be customized for pen systems made by different manufacturers.
Components can be either glued or clicked in place without having to change formats. The machine can also prime the injection device so the patient does not have to prime manually.
A new option for the machine is the ability to add a printer combined with 360° labeling. Customer-specific labels can be printed and positioned individually, then checked using a camera system.
