Reads all 2D barcodes on single sample tubes. The code is read instantly when the tube is placed on the scanner's window. Hands free with no need to focus. Also reads 1D linear barcodes and QR codes. There are a wide range of export options to swiftly send your code where it is needed. This could be anywhere from a simple Excel file to a sophisticated LIMS system.

High speed, reliable SBS rack reader for 2D barcoded tubes. Reads all tubes from all manufacturers including AcoustiX tubes. Easy set up and no configuration between rack types. Automatically senses rack placement, checks and corrects rack orientation. Magnetic 1D barcode reader attachment can be placed to capture linear codes at the end of racks. Easy data export - compatible with all LIMS and database systems.

Reads Cryobox and SBS-sized racks of 2D barcoded tubes. Patent pending, glass-free design ensures there is no condensation or frost build up when using frozen samples. Exceptional performance and versatility. Auto mode adapts instantly to different rack formats.

Ultra compact and low- profile SBS rack reader for 2D coded tubes, designed for robotic platforms where the rack is held in position by the robot. A full rack can be scanned from as little as 117mm. Precise robotic placement and innovative customisable software facilitate partial rack scanning at even shorter distances.

Fast, reliable and compact SBS rack reader for 2D barcoded tubes. Designed for integration with SBS-sized footprint but equally good for benchtop use. Patent-pending, glass-free design ensures there is no condensation or frost build up when using frozen samples.
