Aethon’s solutions make a positive impact to the bottom line. TUG®, Aethon’s Automated Robotic Delivery System (ARD) is a low-cost, high-value application that transforms the economics of hospital operations

For a 300-bed facility, an estimated $4 million dollars is spent annually on people pushing carts. Each day, more than 600 hours of staff time is dedicated to this mundane task. One TUG, working just two shifts seven days per week, saves the labor of 2.8 full-time equivalent (FTE) employees, yet costs less than a single FTE.

TUG works 24/7, and never gets side-tracked or interrupted from making a delivery.
