Flexible and reliable IFA and ELISA automation barcode reader

Multi-type barcode reader
The increased number of routine tests carried out in autoimmunity and infectious serology laboratories has created a need for efficient automation. However, up until now a really flexible, reliable, compact, secure, user friendly and open instrument combining both ELISA and IFA has not been available. Taking advantage of the company`s IVD manufacturing expertise together with its instrumentation know-how, Aesku has successfully developed such a system. The HELMED instrument offers a built-in multi-type barcode reader for samples, reagents and rack type detection and identification, so mistakes caused by sample switching are unlikely to happen. The unique colour-coded troubleshooting system prevents a long, time-consuming error search.
Speed, precision and accuracy are guaranteed by a three probe robotic arm and three independently moving rings. Modular racks for multiformat sample tubes, slides and reagents allow the work configuration to be changed easily and quickly. The systems green cover locks automatically and guarantees safe handling and secure results; IFA & ELISA tests are protected from ambient light. The revolutionary design where form follows function, combined with the compact architecture, allows the technician direct and easy access to all working areas. This IFA and ELISA processor satisfies the requirements of both clinical and research laboratories.
