Reduce labour. Maximise space

Constellation minimises your manufacturing footprint and maximises labour efficiency, delivering smarter operations with reduced complexity.

24/7 operation

With sterile welding and mobile robots, people can work seamlessly alongside the technology. When maintenance is needed, only the specific process is paused, ensuring the rest of your operations keep running smoothly.

Scale to suit your needs

Constellation’s modular mobile robotic ecosystem lets you expand flexibly—adding hardware only when and where it’s needed. Scale efficiently without being locked into rigid systems.

Adopt at any stage

Whether you’re at clinical trial or commercial scale, Constellation integrates seamlessly into your workflow, offering smooth transition, unparalleled efficiency and ease.

Mobile robots

Integrated Mobile Robots (IMRs) handle the transport and installation of third-party bioprocessing consumables while performing closed sterile transfers of cells and media. Equipped with 6-axis robotic arms, proprietary tools, and robotic end effectors, these robots ensure precision, efficiency, and sterility throughout the process.

Enables adaptable, flexible cell therapy manufacturing

Trusted, closed sterile transfer technologies

The mobile robots use sterile welding and sealing end effectors to connect and disconnect together consumables at a module, maintaining closure throughout the process. Closed fluid transfer technologies transfer cells and media between containers, and sample.

Integration with third party technologies

Third party process modules, automated with Cellular Origins technology, perform gold standard unit operations from isolation to formulation fill finish . This provides automated loading and installation of complex consumable sets and enables digital control of instrument to execute protocols, to retrieve data and facilitate error recovery.

This facilitates minimal process change and the flexibility to adopt automation when you’re ready.

Unified digital layer

A unified digital layer automates your entire end-to-end process, seamlessly capturing and controlling process logs, user actions, system states, and low-level sensor data—ready for AI/ML-driven optimisation. It offers 24/7 scheduling for maximum uptime, integrates effortlessly with ERP and MES platforms following ISA 95 architecture, and provides a simple, intuitive interface for direct or remote batch control. If the hardware supports it, you can create the protocol.

Everything you need, at your fingertips.

De-risking cell therapy manufacturing

Cell therapy manufacturing is labour-intensive, costly, and prone to errors. Disconnected technologies and manual processes cause variability, limit traceability, and hinder scaling. Adding new technologies during commercialisation creates regulatory delays, impacting patient access.

Constellation transforms manufacturing by minimising risks during scale-up. Its scalable platform unites proven technologies, improving efficiency and accelerating therapies to market while maintaining precision and sterility. Advanced robotics and sterile welding automate processes, ensuring compliance and eliminating variability, contamination, and inefficiencies.  Its modular design fits into existing facilities without costly revalidation, reducing labour and operational costs. A unified software layer ensures control, traceability, and consistent outcomes. Mobile robots enable flexible, 24/7 operation in Grade C/D spaces, with built-in redundancy ensuring smooth, reliable operations even during maintenance or equipment replacement.

With Cellular Origins, scaling is no longer a challenge—it’s an opportunity to achieve smarter, safer, and faster manufacturing.
