KL30
KL30 —
All-In-One Counting and Verification System with Workflow Software
When simple tablet counters aren't enough, and robotic dispensers are too much, Kirby Lester's KL30 is the ideal middle-point in pharmacy automation. Use the KL30 to dispense and verify 100% of your pharmacy's total orders, and save time and steps with high-speed cassettes for your most frequently dispensed tablets and capsules. The KL30 is based on the KL20 "next-generation" device. The KL20 is heralded by pharmacists and technicians alike as an indispensable technology platform.
- Fully Automate 25-30% of Your Orders - The KL30 automates the dispensing of 100% of all oral solids with the combination cassette & pour-through methods. Using up to 30 cassettes on the KL30, for instance, will automate the counting of 25-30% of the orders in a typical retail pharmacy. In contrast, most robotic dispensers automate 40-55% of orders, at a cost of 7-10 times the cost of a KL30.
- Hands-Free Dispensing - a Kirby Lester First! - Save time and labor by dispensing your high-frequency tablets using drug-specific cassettes; for all others, simply pour tablets into the funnel to count. It is just the right amount of automation for most pharmacies.
- Automate What Makes Sense: Order as many cassettes as you need, from 1 to 100 cassettes. Add more cassettes later to suit your dispensing needs. Ideal for your highest movers, 90-day fills and narcotics.
- Double-Count Accuracy - Every cassette-dispensed tablet is counted twice: first when tablets are dispensed from the cassette; and second, as the tablets fall through the Kirby Lester. Uses the renowned Kirby Lester counting technology that's trusted worldwide to count 5 million prescriptions each day.
- High-Speed, Accurate Cassettes - 650cc capacity. Encoded and shaped for specific medications to prevent dispensing errors. Fast operation. Simple to fill, handle and maintain. Optional high-volume cassettes hold more than 3x the volume (2,200cc).
- Workflow Software - built-in workflow software can be turned on/off as you need it - at no extra charge.
- 100% verification for processing all orders - The KL30 enables the pharmacy to verify the dispensing of 100% of all medications, not just oral solids.
- Innovation in a small package - Fits on a countertop and needs no remodeling (only 21.0" high x 12.5" wide).
- User-friendly - simple to install and learn.
- Also available: KL30n (non-interfaced version), the simplest way to avoid medication dispensing errors — The KL30n is based on the KL30 and is ideal for pharmacies that do not desire pharmacy management system interfacing. The KL30n includes fast cassette dispensing, barcode checking, onscreen drug images, fingerprint scan-tracking, inventory reporting and the ability to verify 100% of orders (oral solids as well as unit of use items). You can choose to interface with your pharmacy management system at a later date. Click here to compare the KL30 and KL30n..

Automate Even More Medications
Do you want to automate even more of your total orders? Combine the KL30 with the KL60 compact robot to manage your top 90 (or more) medications. This can represent 50% of your total orders, plus you will be verifying the accuracy of 100% of prescriptions with workflow software. Click here to see the KL60, the perfect partner to the KL30.
The KL30 pharmacy counting and verification system includes important advances in workflow management, order tracking and patient medication safety. The KL30 incorporates one- or two-way interfacing with pharmacy management systems and includes all-new software, a large touch-screen and user-friendly directions. Pharmacists and technicians benefit from onsite control of barcode setup, simplified verification steps, and the ability to turn workflow software features on and off. The pharmacy staff saves precious time by automating the dispensing of the most commonly prescribed oral solids (representing 25-30% of all daily orders) as well as automating the verification of 100% of all prescriptions, not just oral solids.
