Features of the I.D. Reader

  • Processes a 96-format tube rack in less than three seconds and a 384-format tube rack in five seconds
  • Cutting-edge decoding technology allows for robust and secure identification of even challenging codes
  • Optional 1D 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
  • Compact and ergonomic design supports efficient workflow

New Feature: ColdScan

This new technology actively moves air across the scanning window to minimize condensation when scanning frozen tube racks.

  • Easily and accurately identify frozen samples
  • Save time and ensure sample integrity by eliminating the need to thaw
  • Eliminate scan errors due to fog build up
