Buffer Depal
The UNISTA Depal FIFO Buffer is an advanced robotic solution designed to automate FIFO storage of your products inthe pharmaceutical industry.
This machine efficiently manages the storage and retrieval of your single-dose units completely autonomously, thanks to its optimized handling of full and empty thermoformed trays.
Thanks to its high-performance architecture, it delivers a high output rate of 200 shots per minute for packs of 5 and 40 shots per minute for packs of 25, ensuring seamless integration and up to 45 minutes of continuous operation on your production lines.

The Depal FIFO Buffer offers excellent flexibility for integration into your production line.
The system consists ofa storage area with a capacity of 48 slots, designed to hold thermoformed trays measuring 770×660 mm.
Products are transported via a series of conveyors equipped with a special switch to allow for a "through pass."
Finally, the machine is built on a sturdy tubular frame and features a built-in human-machine interface (HMI) for centralized and intuitive operation.
Designed for optimal performance and continuous industrial reliability, the architecture of the Buffer Depal FIFO is based on the synchronization of multiple robotic systems.
The handling and manipulation of thermoformed trays from below are performed by a 6-axis robot equipped with a tray gripper.
The process of transferring single-dose packs or preforms—whether for placement in thermoformed trays or for return to production—is specifically carried out by a Delta robot.
An automatic flipping mechanism for the thermoformed trays is built in to ensure complete emptying.
To accommodate a wide range of applications, the machine offers several options:
Modular expansion: You can add a second, third, or fourth identical storage unit to increase your line's capacity.
Package 4.0: Integrating advanced connectivity solutions for the industry of tomorrow.
Remote Assistance and UNISTA Remote Video: A system featuring dashcams and IXON units for remote support, rapid error analysis, and optimized maintenance.
