TransLogic, a Swisslog Healthcare company and a leading supplier in transport automation for hospitals, will exhibit at the Healthcare Design Conference + Expo (HCD), Oct. 17-20, 2026, in New Orleans at Booth 2625. At the event, TransLogic representatives will connect with architects, interior designers, and construction managers to demonstrate how integrating pneumatic tube system planning early in the design phase produces stronger project outcomes, more efficient healthcare facilities, and fewer costly surprises during construction.
Healthcare construction spending reached a $74.6 billion annualized rate in July 2026, according to U.S. Census Bureau data, reflecting a sustained wave of hospital development and renovation nationwide. As the pace of healthcare construction grows, so does the complexity of the systems that must be planned within those facilities. That growing pipeline of hospital projects drives demand for TransLogic's Design Assist service, developed specifically to help project teams manage the planning complexity that comes with building and renovating at that scale.
Transport Automation and the Future of Care
"Healthcare design is evolving faster than ever, and the systems being built into these facilities today will shape how clinicians deliver patient care for decades to come," said Larry Bray, Vice President of Sales, TransLogic North America. "The decisions made at the design table ripple through a hospital's operations for years, which is why the work happening across our industry right now carries so much weight. HCD is exactly where those conversations happen, and we are looking forward to giving attendees a first look at what TransLogic has in store."
What to Expect
TransLogic will spotlight its Design Assist service, which brings transport automation expertise into healthcare facility planning from the earliest phases of a project. Collaborating with architects, designers, contractors, and healthcare stakeholders, the team helps ensure pneumatic tube systems are optimized for workflow, space utilization, and long-term operational performance. Attendees can review a sample of the Design Summary Report, a detailed document that translates complex system planning into a clear, actionable framework for design and construction teams.
Conference attendees will also receive an exclusive first look at a new TransLogic debut. The company will offer an early preview of what is coming next in transport automation, giving HCD attendees a first opportunity to see where the industry is headed.
