Yaskawa Motoman Introduces Bulk Sorter for High-Volume Commercial Laboratories

8/2/2014

Dayton, OH (July 2014) - AutoSorter™ 2000BB is Yaskawa Motoman's new high-speed bulk sorter for high-volume commercial laboratories. AutoSorter 2000BB provides maximum specimen throughput at up to 2,000 tubes/hr. It minimizes manual handling of specimens through bulk loading/unloading, and reduces sequential sorting by fine sorting in one step.

AutoSorter 2000BB addresses other common requirements for high-volume commercial labs: bulk loading; wide range of container types and sizes; data connectivity and sorting to 24 bins with options for loading to racks or track.

AutoSorter 2000BB utilizes the AutoSorter 1200 platform - a proven, robust sorter engine that is designed and built to industrial standards to serve for an extended lifecycle in high-demand laboratory environments.

AutoSorter 1200 is a high-speed sorting instrument for pre- and post-analytic specimen processing. It raises the bar on throughput at up to 1,200 tubes/hr. A larger sort deck area yields extended walkaway times and expanded deck configuration options, while its reduced footprint saves precious lab floorspace. AutoSorter 1200 may be positioned against a wall or next to other instruments as all maintenance access is from the front of the instrument. AutoSorter 1200 is the new standard for robust, accurate specimen sorting in high-throughput commercial/reference laboratories.

Like other AutoSorter platforms, AutoSorter 1200 permits the use of a wide variety of specimen tube configurations and instrument racks. It may be used as a stand-alone workcell for specimen processing (AutoSorter 1200S), or it may be connected to a track system (AutoSorter 1200T) as part of an integrated pre-/post-analytic specimen processing system.

Yaskawa Motoman provides automated clinical laboratory specimen processing solutions for sorting; aliquoting; decapping/recapping; thawing/mixing; centrifugation; and archive storage and retrieval - with a range of standard platforms. AutoSorter solutions can be customized to develop unique workcells to meet each laboratory's unique specimen processing needs.
