Developed in parallel with the TraXis 2-dimensional coded tube system, a range of readers optimised to suit different applications has been announced by Micronic
Each of the purpose designed TraXis readers is able to take a visual image of the tube code that is then translated to a unique number by the TraXis software maintaining absolute sample security and traceability.
The TraXis HTM reader provides the robustness, reliability and productivity required by laboratories faced with the demands of repeated processing large numbers of samples.
Scanning a complete rack of 96 codes in only three seconds the TraXis HTM reader facilitates the high-speed movement and audit traceable tracking of laboratory samples.
Using a single life vision system camera, with no moving parts, the TraXis HTM reader is extremely reliable and requires minimal maintenance.
For laboratories evaluating a coded tube storage system or where productivity requirements are less demanding the TraXis TM reader presents a highly affordable solution.
Using the TraXis software in conjunction with a standard flatbed scanner the TM reader can scan and interpret 96 codes in 45 seconds. While the movement of complete tube racks might be required in sample storage facilities equally important is the rapid tracking of the movement of single tubes within these automated systems. Available in stand-alone or in-line configurations the TraXis STM reader can scan and interpret the unique TraXis codes on single tubes in less than 0.5 seconds.
Using embedded TraXis software and able to read coded tubes at a distance the in-line STM reader may be readily integrated into automated sample processing systems providing unmatched productivity.
In non-automated environments the off-line version simply requires the tube to be placed onto the reader.
