Post-Analytical Sample Management Solution
The Brooks PathFinder™ 350A Archiver is a compact benchtop robotic workstation designed for the post analytical management of sample tubes (either open top or capped). The system is used for automating the capping, sorting and archiving of sample tubes into storage racks. It uses the same sorter module as the PathFinder™ 450S but in addition, can cap tubes with a laminated foil seal which seals the tube from leakage during transport or freezer storage.
- Automatically caps and stores tubes in one step
- Archives samples in low-cost storage racks
- Eliminates RSI injuries from manually capping tubes
- Prevents samples being sent to storage prematurely
- Eliminates manual handling errors
- Reduces biohazard exposure
- Low cap costs compared to other alternatives
- Optimizes storage requirements by sorting to different storage racks
Lab Automation Made Easy
In its standard configuration, the PathFinder™ 350A can process a mix of 12mm and 16mm diameter specimen tubes storing them into racks that hold 50 tubes. If the diameter of the tubes processed is restricted to 12-13mm, a High Capacity version of the PathFinder™ 350A Archiver is available, specifically designed to accommodate storage racks holding up to 128 tubes.
