MAGNUS is the result of Milestone putting its 30 years of experience to use, resulting in a patented hybrid processing technology.
Lean by Design. MAGNUS is the processor with the highest uptime by design. It does not require paraffin transfers, saving time and potential blockages. There are no cleaning cycles and a reduced consumption of reagents overall, delivering dramatic cost savings.
Safe by Design. It runs xylene-free, enabling long paraffin reutilization. Additionally, it checks alcohol purity before every step using the (optional) reagent sensor.
During the day, MAGNUS runs urgent biopsies in short, fully automated, continuous loading processes.
During the night, MAGNUS runs as an advanced, resistant heated, processor. It also allows the user to set fixation time to fulfill all CAP/ASCO guidelines for assessing HER-2, ER and PgR testing.
Why MAGNUS?
LEAN WORKFLOW
The unique robotic arm makes MAGNUS the best–in–class Lean Processor. Its continuous automatic processing never stops, even during reagent changes.
IDEAL LAB COMPANION
MAGNUS is always ready to start, per user demand, creating unrivalled processing efficiency and performance.
DRAMATIC REAGENT SAVINGS
MAGNUS tissue processor uses only 100% alcohol, resulting in significantly lower consumption of reagents overall. With MAGNUS, wax lasts for over a month as all the clearing reagent, either MileTWO or Isopropanol, is boiled off in the impregnation step. It delivers substantial savings over 10 years that can equal the capital purchase cost of the unit.
