Features and operation
Features and operation
Introduce the
carrousel in the unit
and close the door.
Compact carrousel
The Petri plates are stacked in a carrousel that
contains up to 80 (four columns of 20 ). The
carrousel is taken from the
incubator and installed in the unit. The Petri dishes
can have a bar code label to be identified. If
they do not have bar code label, the position of
the Petri plate in the column and the column
itself are used as identification.
Automated counting
The PLATE HANDLER can
be used for different
applications. The first
development is to
automate the colony
counting with the
FLASH & GO.
Built-in bar code
reader
The bar code
reader stops the
rotating movement
when has got the
information. This
information could
be used for
identification
purposes as well as
to give orders to the
counter.
Once
counted the Petri
plate is covered and
stacked again.
When the
work is finished returns
the column to the
carrousel.
The lift opens the lid,
reads the bar code
and introduces the Petri
dish in the FLASH & GO.
Decide the plates to be
processed. The unit
moves the column
on the lift.
