Robotic unit for handling and scanning cyto-histological samples
Thanks to a multi-articulated mechanical arm, finderFlex can handle and insert slides, marcrosection slides, biopsy cassettes, super mega cassettes and vials into the appropriate racks in a fully automated and secure way. The operator simply has to turn on the device and log in to add any new samples for storage. Using a latest-generation barcode scanner, finderFLEX also rapidly scans any barcodes, QR codes and Data Matrix 2D codes, communicating directly with the LIS to ensure a systematic and traceable sample management and handling process. finderFLEX identifies and manages the samples directly from their standard racks and containers*, significantly reducing handling times, also thanks to the automatic transmission of the gripper fingers.
The device is also equipped with simple and intuitive software and a touchscreen panel, which the operator can access in total safety in case of emergency.
*Slides can be managed with direct sampling from Sakura and/or Leica cartridges after they exit the Digital Pathology scanners.
