intrion supports Probo, the high tech robot cheering up sick children
Probo has a soft appearance and looks like a green elephant-like huggable, but is much more than that. The inside of Probo is full of high tech: 20 precision motors, sensors, electronics and a touch screen. The robot is able to show facial expressions and can sense its environment. Probo is one of the first robotic platforms with a special focus on interaction studies of emotional communication between robot and child. The robot will be used as research platform in a multidisciplinary team to enlighten the children’s stay in the hospital.
intrion did it again !
intrion has been selected as one of the three finalists of the Supply Chain Award within the category "Project of the Year - SME 2009" with the Viangros project. After a winning title for the Lipton project last year, intrion belongs again to the finalists with a topnotch project at Viangros. This proves once more that intrion always finds the right solution to complex problems.

Janssen Pharmaceutica: 6 robots finish a Risperdal-blister off every second.
Three months were enough for intrion to make this automated packaging line operational - using machines from different suppliers.
In a blister (formed on the spot), three successive robots position a syringe, a vial containing the drug’s active ingredient and a needle kit. A hygienical, safe and fast method. Two other robots finish the job: the first one labels the blister and the second one applies a foil cover, ready to be packaged in cardboard boxes to be sent to the wholesalers.
Under the title ‘As fast as it is safe’, the monthly magazine Packaging published in its March 2009 edition an interesting report on this realization.
