Key Features

Automation for Fast & Consistent Capping Performance
  • The same torque is applied to each cap, according to tube manufacturer specification, to ensure consistent seal quality
  • Automation reduces sample handling time, increasing sample throughput and workflow
  • Screw caps can be held within the unit whilst the user fills, or accesses, the sample tube
  • Caps can subsequently be re-applied to the same tubes, eliminating the risk of cross-contamination
Broad Compatibility for Every Laboratory
