Automatic vial dispensing system for nuclear medicine
Ensure precise, compliant dispensing of radiopharmaceuticals with a system that integrates weighing, crimping, and labeling, perfect for managing complex formulations in high-precision environments.

Dispenses and Prepares Radiopharmaceutical Vials
The ARGO 2.0 Vial Dispensing System from Comecer is a cutting-edge solution tailored for the precise dispensing of radiopharmaceuticals and radiotracers, essential in PET and SPECT diagnoses. This automatic system employs an integrated pumping syringe and scale technology to ensure dispensing accuracy within ±5% for volumes over 1ml, and within ±0.08 ml for smaller volumes. It caters to a range of isotopes, including FDG and Gallium Ga-68 DOTATATE, supported by its cGMP-compliant design. Equipped with features such as a vial crimping unit, barcode reader, and label printer, it facilitates seamless integration into Class A shielded isolators. Additionally, the system is enhanced with the Illuminate™ MI platform, enabling real-time performance monitoring and aiding in downtime reduction and quality improvement. Made with high precision and reliability in mind, the ARGO 2.0 supports customization for various operational requirements and offers comprehensive engineering support to ensure its fit into your existing workflow.
