Combi automation for efficient processing of each sample

Sample handling in your laboratory is revolutionized by the use of the ILAS 3000.

The unit automates all samples handling procedures:

  • Identification and transfer of samples from the tray to the sample carousel,
  • Samples are heated to the desired temperature, immersed in a water bath regulated at a stable temperature while rotating in a carousel,
  • The automated system mixes the samples prior to analysis to allow the analyzer to take a representative sample,
  • Sample decapping, identified by barcode or RFID reading (optional), placed under the analyzer stirrer/pipette, and returned to their original tray position,
  • Control samples are inserted in samples stream automatically and analyzed as required.

Added value and benefits

Efficiency

The ILAS 3000 is a combi automation very simple to use. The robot can perform all manual and monotonous work efficiently, allowing users to dedicate themselves to other activities. As a result, laboratory performance is increased. Operator training is simplified since most activities are performed automatically by the robot.

Cost savings

A single operator can manage up to three combi automation. Simply prepare the sample trays and remove them from the robot at the end of the analysis.

Quality assurance

All automated procedures are highly repeatable, ensuring robust and reliable measurements.

The pilot samples are placed in a separate compartment. Depending on the needs of the laboratory, these pilot samples can be automatically inserted into the current analysis sequence to check the stability of the instrument. Depending on the level of integration of the instrument, the ILAS 3000 can automatically alert the operator in case of abnormal results. In this case, automatic re-analysis of the samples is possible.

Productivity

Each combi automation has two drawers to hold the sample trays and therefore allows continuous activity. While the robot takes care of the first drawer, the operator has free access to the next one. The robot can operate at a speed of up to 600 samples per hour, depending on the analyzer.

Reliability

The ILAS 3000 is renowned for its longevity, with some units having been in continuous operation for more than 15 years..
