Pharmacy Automation
& Blister Packs
Supporting Your
Automation Journey
Today, more pharmacies are implementing full or partial automation to fill blister packs with medications. Whether working through a centralized fulfillment center or using robots in house, pharmacies use this technology to reduce the resource time needed to prepare blister packs, enhance accuracy and consistency, and improve inventory management.
It’s important to choose adherence packaging specifically designed for pharmacy automation, to ensure there are no bottlenecks in the blister pack preparation process.

The Jones Healthcare Difference: Blister Packs Tailored for Automation
Blister packs must integrate seamlessly into automated workflows. The time to seal a blister pack after it has been filled by a robot must be kept to a minimum. Otherwise, no matter how quickly the robot fills packs, the sealing process will slow workflow.
We work closely with automation manufacturers, centralized fulfillment centers and pharmacy chains to analyze every step of the process to ensure consistency and improve speed.
Eliminating redundant steps
Printing directly on the package to remove printing and application of separate adherence labels.
Easily repeatable sealing
Using visual cues on packaging to aid in alignment when sealing.
Consistent product quality
Mechanical design features ensure the accuracy of label to blister seal.
The Latest Automation
Blister Packs
FlexRx™ One
FlexRx™ One is our flagship product for the unit-dose segment. The specially designed blister, with side and bottom alignment ribs, allows for improved sealing times and guaranteed repeatability. The ability to print on both sides of the label provides more information for the patient and branding space for the pharmacy.
Qube Pro
Qube Pro is designed for the multi-dose segment and allows for direct printing of patient information onto the package. Visual aids allow for fast and repeatable alignment on automation trays. In addition, we removed a third panel from the packaging, removing redundant material.
