Description

Description
The BL 1200 is a front-end sorter installed at the sample inlet to streamline sample entry and automated sorting into laboratory racks and bins. It provides automated registration, tube-type recognition and assignment of samples to target positions according to predefined criteria to prepare downstream processing.

Operation and key functions
  • Camera system for tube-type recognition to detect tube geometry and format.
  • Integrated barcode/ID scanner reads sample identifiers and supports LIS-driven sorting rules.
  • Automated assignment and routing of samples to configured racks and target bins for downstream devices.
  • Flexible distribution logic configurable to user workflows and sample handling policies.

Distribution targets and racking options
  • Placement into block racks for organized batch processing.
  • Support for linear racks and tray formats.
  • Support for segmented racks and rotors where required.
  • Configurable placement strategies to prepare samples for subsequent analytical or pre-analytical steps.

Optional modules and integration
  • Tempus1800® Fero (SARSTEDT module) enables automatic sample dispatch after processing to optimise connectivity and reduce manual handling.
  • Modular concept allows custom configuration and seamless integration with existing laboratory automation and LIS.

Applications
  • Pre-analytical workflow automation and front-end infeed.
  • Clinical laboratory sample registration and front-end sorting.
  • High-throughput environments requiring reliable rack assignment and downstream preparation.
