A Breath of Fresh Air

At LabAutomation 2008, TTP LabTech announced the introduction of
Lab2Lab, a new automated sample transport system for sending individual
microtubes between analytical workstations or laboratories. Lab2Lab uses
the proven pneumatic technology at the heart of the comPOUND sample
store and a simple network of uPVC tubing to connect a minimum of two
stations and transfer samples using a blast of air. These ‘stations’ can be instruments located in different rooms, or even on different floors of a building. Lab2Lab provides on-demand delivery of a single sample tube to a sampling device, then to the analytical hardware, and then to a waste container or collection point.
Lab2Lab offers to optimise the use of expensive analysis instrumentation as it can send a sample to any available instrument, even if it is located in a different core lab to the user. It also reduces the time taken for samples to be sent, analysed and associated data returned to the scientist. Lab2Lab can be used stand-alone or as part of an automation workflow solution.
