XL20 and XL9 Tube Handling Instrument

Description

 

The XL20 Tube Handler automates transferring tubes between multiple 96 tube racks. The XL20's robotics allow unattended processing of 20 tube racks (1,920 tubes) at a time. For projects over 1,920 tubes, the tube racks can be exchanged dynamically. The XL20's advanced tube management system supports sorting, 2D bar code verification, and weighing virtually an unlimited number of tubes. The XL20 includes Windows based control software that is easy to use and ready for user work lists. The software's intuitive interface makes the XL20 operable by a wide variety of users.  2D bar code tube users have found the XL20 or XL9 Tube Handling Instrument an indispensible instrument in their labs for handling of tubes in the 96 rack format.

"We have used the XL20 since their first generations, with 15 of them on site. 6 years of reliable service so long they are set up and maintained correctly. Bill and Lisa are very responsive and helpful when any assistance was required."

XL20 and XL9 Tube Handling Instrument

"Regularly breaks due to cheap components, particularly the gripper. Doesn't account for variability in tare weight of tubes."
