The Kube plate sealing technology, like all our instrumentation, is used in our own service laboratories to enable the delivery of the highest quality, cost efficient genomics services including high volume SNP genotyping. The Kube system enables us to provide assays which require:
• Elevated temperature assays
• Long term plate storage
• Colored seals for light sensitive contents
• Extended incubation times
• Multi-step aliquoting from master plates
• The delivery of permanent hermetic seals.
The Kube – ultimate seal integrity using heat
• up to 25% faster sealing than competing instruments
• Robust heat seal eliminates edge-effects
• Seal and re-seal your plate up to 5 times (25+ with Flexi-Block)
• Suitable for application to a wide variety of plate formats
• Allows sealing of microplates for storage, PCR or other reactions
• Can be used to seal with optically clear material.
An extensive range of thermal plate seals are also available. Whatever your seal requirements are, our extensive portfolio of seals for many different applications is sure to include a format that meets your needs.

Kube Automated Thermal Plate Sealer
LGC Biosearch TechnologiesThe Kube™ is our fully automated, robotic friendly thermal plate sealer. With more than 15 years experience in the development of plate sealing technologies, LGC development engineers poured all their knowledge and experience into making this a truly robust and reliable heat sealer that delivers unsurpassed levels of speed, performance, flexibility, and ease-of-use. Controlled through an intuitive on-board touch screen interface, or remotely via an RS 232 interface, the Kube software control and functionality goes beyond that of any competing instrument on the market. A highly versatile workhorse, the Kube has the ability to quickly heat seal a wide range of standard height and deepwell microplates, including 24, 48, 96, 384 and some 1536-well plates too. (Note: for optimum sealing efficiency of 1536 well plates, we recommend the Fusion laser seal technology). The Kube heat sealer uses a patented alternative sealing surface – the FlexiBlock option - that utilises a highly optimised heat conductive rubberised block that conforms to the surface of the each plate forming a robust seal without damaging the microplate surface. A key benefit to using the FlexiBlock sealing option is that it becomes possible to heat seal a plate many more times (25+) as opposed to the standard heat seal block, which can re-seal no more than 5 times. Features: Compatible with a wide range of microplate formats 24-384-well plates (and some 1536); 9-48mm high polystyrene assay plates, and polypropylene PCR and storage plates Reseals up to 5 times with standard block; up to 25 times with Flexiblock option Eliminates edge effects Supports use of optically clear plate seals for greater signal generation Robotic Friendly: RS232 controllable; low height profile, portrait or landscape orientation Very reliable seal cutting based on novel cutter design Seal length can be adjusted to address varying needs e.g.: flush for automated handling; overlapping tab for manual peeling; etc. Faster sealing time; up to 50% faster than competing instruments Easy to operate: seal rolls loaded by hand; supplied on a turntable for ready access Scorpion & OEM stacker compatible
