Your answer to sample tube sorting, storing and tracking
The PathFinder™ 450S processes samples at up to 450 tubes per hour. Tubes are sorted into various destination racks based on the tubes barcode identification. Racks can be loaded and unloaded at any time without stopping the instrument and impacting the throughput. With simple, robust functionality, the PathFinder™ 450S can help laboratories address many of the challenges associated with sample management.
Intelligent Sample Routing Made Simple
Automate manual tube sorting tasks
The PathFinder™ 450S is a compact benchtop workstation that registers and sorts presented specimen tubes into a number of different destination sample racks based on user defined rules. It can be used to automate any manual task in the laboratory where a decision needs to be made regarding the routing of a tube for testing or storage.
- Improves sample turnaround time
- Frees up valuable lab staff for more productive tasks
- Reduces manual sample handling errors
- Avoids missing test orders
- Eliminates lost or misplaced tubes
- Simplifies training for new staff
- Improves workflow and efficiency
Compact Automation for Smarter Sample Handling
The PathFinder™ 450S is a compact, benchtop robotic workstation that automates critical tube sorting, storage, and tracking steps across pre‑ and post‑analytical workflows. By reducing manual handling and improving sample flow, it helps laboratories increase efficiency, minimize errors, and keep samples moving to the right destination—every time.
