Tube Capper/De-Capper

Product Description: Automated decapping/capping & barcode reading in one device! The I.D. Capper™ combines the features of the new DeCapper™ and I.D. Reader™ into one system for ultimate processing efficiency. This device automatically tracks the processed tubes providing sample security and maximizing sample integrity. The all in one I.D. Capper enables labs to combine decapping/capping and high-speed barcode reading within one device without any additional user interaction. This device is specifically designed to eliminate sample contamination and assist with sample tracking during end-to-end automated liquid handling processing. Features and Benefits: The I.D. Capper includes all the new features and benefits standard to the other LabElite devices including: Flexible Automated Tube Decapping and Barcode Reading: • Easily swap decapping heads to decap tubes in both 48-cryovial and 96-microtube racks on a single device (patent pending). • Process a full rack of tubes or row of tubes in portrait or landscape format within one device (patent pending). • Can be operated as an integrated and standalone device simultaneously. • Optional 1-D barcode reading for racks. • Multiple tube heights can be read within the same rack. • Compatible with SiLA (Standard in Laboratory Automation). • Highly-configurable output options for smooth integration into LIMS or databases. Sample Security: • New secure processing mode provides sample security by minimizing the time a tube is opened-only one row is processed at a time by holding caps after decapping and then immediately recapping. • Point-of-use decapping-limit risk of exposure or contamination from environment. • Eliminates risk of cross contamination by not moving over opened tubes. Ease-of-Use: • Touchscreen panel provides easy navigation through the system. • New turntable allows rack to be turned after decapping for better positioning in pipetting workflows. • No spacers needed for labware. • Compact and ergonomic design supports efficient workflow. • Automatically detects the tube rack type to use optimal settings. Efficiency: • Barcode reader processes a 96-microtube rack in less than 3 seconds, and a 384-tube rack in 5 seconds. • Cutting-edge decoding technology allows for robust and secure identification of even challenging codes.
