Throughout the world-renowned medical enterprises, behind their medical brands, there are not only medical equipment, but also medical informatization, energy, building automation and other businesses, presenting a kind of overall medical delivery. At present, there is a relatively lack of such a medical technology group brand in China.

It is understood that Midea Medical is an industrial consortium spanning multiple sectors. Its business covers imaging diagnosis, logistics automation, pharmacy automation, auxiliary therapy robots, HVAC, elevators, weak current intelligence, building automation, cleaning Engineering, digital platform and sample cryogenic storage, etc. Sun Jing said, “In China, there is currently no company that can provide such a comprehensive solution in the medical industry.” It is an enabler who hopes to become the application of actual technology scenarios. Taking the static dispensing center in the outpatient pharmacy scene as an example, the preparation of infusion bags is a repetitive task, and it takes a long time to worry about the reduction of the preparation accuracy or the occupational injury of the infusion technician. And Midea Medical provides corresponding automation solutions, from the doctor’s prescription to the automatic dispensing, and then quickly sends these urgently used infusion bags to the corresponding wards at a speed of 8 meters per second, so as to realize the transformation from “people to waiting”.
