Anzhizhuo Medical

Wuxi Anzhizhuo Medical Robot Co., Ltd. develops and manufactures intelligent pharmacy automation equipment, with a focus on intravenous (IV) drug compounding robots for hospital Pharmacy Intravenous Admixture Services (PIVAS) centers. Recognized as a Jiangsu Provincial Private Technology Enterprise and a National High-Tech Enterprise, the company operates from a substantial manufacturing base in the Wuxi Huishan Economic Development Zone.

Company Overview

Founded in July 2015, Anzhizhuo Medical emerged during a period of growing demand for pharmacy automation in Chinese hospitals. The company established itself as an early participant in the domestic IV compounding robot market, addressing the need to replace manual drug preparation with automated systems that improve safety and efficiency.

The company’s manufacturing facilities occupy 93 mu (approximately 62,000 square meters) in Wuxi, including a 5,500 square meter office building and an 8,000 square meter production workshop. This infrastructure supports in-house R&D, manufacturing, and quality control for the company’s product lines.

Anzhizhuo Medical focuses on three primary business areas: pharmacy automation, clinical laboratory automation, and diagnostic equipment. The IV compounding robot line represents the company’s core product offering.

Core Products

Intelligent IV Compounding Robot (Vial Type)

The tabletop vial compounding robot handles reconstitution and mixing of medications supplied in rubber-stoppered vials (西林瓶). Key capabilities include automatic vial volume calculation, deep learning-based drug recognition, and motion control algorithms for precise dispensing.

Intelligent IV Compounding Robot (Ampoule Type)

Designed for ampoule-packaged medications, this system automates the breaking, extraction, and mixing process for glass ampoule drugs. The robot integrates with biological safety cabinets to maintain sterile compounding environments.

Handheld Compounding Device

A portable solution for point-of-use drug preparation, offering flexibility for facilities that require mobile compounding capability alongside fixed automation systems.

PIVAS Center Solutions

Beyond individual robots, Anzhizhuo offers integrated solutions including needle dispensing machines, sorting systems, label printers, and workflow management software for complete PIVAS center automation.

Pharmacy Automation Suite

The company’s pharmacy automation line includes automated dispensing cabinets, high-speed and rapid dispensing machines, and controlled substance management cabinets for outpatient and inpatient pharmacy operations.

Technology & Innovation

Anzhizhuo’s IV compounding robots employ deep neural network algorithms for drug vial recognition, enabling the system to identify different medications and container types without manual programming for each SKU. The motion control system incorporates error compensation algorithms to achieve consistent dispensing accuracy across varying drug viscosities and volumes.

The robots feature automatic vial volume calculation, eliminating the need for pre-programmed container specifications. This adaptive capability allows hospitals to process diverse medication inventories without extensive system configuration.

Market Presence

The company has deployed IV compounding robots across multiple Chinese regions, with installations reported in hospitals throughout Northeast China (Liaoning, Jilin, Heilongjiang), Southern China (Guangdong, Guangxi), Eastern China (Jiangsu, Zhejiang, Shanghai), and Southwest China (Yunnan, Sichuan). The company maintains service offices in various locations to support its installed base.

Anzhizhuo participates in major healthcare trade events including CMEF (China International Medical Equipment Fair), where it showcases its pharmacy automation solutions to domestic and international buyers.
