The Thermo Scientific™ ALPS5000™ Automated Plate Heat Sealer is the next generation in plate sealing equipment offering fast sealing times, increased process customisation and all electric operation improving reliability and reducing noise.

The ALPS5000 system has a compact footprint to conserve precious bench space and top-loaded seals are easily accessible and can be loaded without the aid of a tool. With automated, electrically controlled microplate sealing, seal up to 2 plates per minute in a variety of hand-fed, benchtop or high throughput robotic applications. Designed with the ability to program sealing time, temperature, pressure, foil length, and sealing distance the ALPS5000 heat sealer allows for ability to offer complete customisation of the sealing process for a wide range of applications.

Product overview:

Electrically Driven with Tool Free Loading

- No need to connect to an external air source or replace expensive vacuum cups

- Reduced risk of contamination inherent in pneumatically driven sealers

- Quieter operation when compared to pneumatically driven systems

- Tool free loading makes reloading foil simple and repeatable

Touchscreen Control and Savable Protocols

- Scalable to meet labs needs now and into the future

- Precise control over sealing parameters to ensure repeatability

- Easily integrated into automation or robotics workflows

Sealing of Multiple Plate Heights

- Seal plates from 8mm to 46mm

- Compatible with high throughput automated applications
