Optimising high-throughput tube marking

20 Feb, 2025

AFYS3G, a leader in laboratory automation solutions, has introduced its latest innovation, the Information Marking System Lambda768. This state-of-the-art laser marker is designed to streamline sample processing in laboratories by delivering exceptional speed, flexibility, and ease of use, making it an ideal solution for high-throughput tube marking.

The Lambda768 laser marker can handle up to 8 ANSI/SLAS racks at once, including 96-well, 48-well, and 24-well formats. Its ability to process mixed formats in a single run makes it incredibly versatile for labs working with various tube types. With a marking capacity of up to 500 tubes per hour, the Lambda768 optimises productivity by enabling quick, reliable marking for large sample volumes.

This advanced system is compatible with tubes from leading brands such as Micronic, Azenta, and LVL Technologies, ensuring smooth integration with existing lab supplies. A built-in turntable accelerates the picking and placing process, optimising speed even further.

Lambda768’s engraving capabilities are highly flexible, allowing high-resolution markings of images, logos, text, and batch IDs directly on the tube surface. The laser markings are durable, resistant to chemicals, abrasion, and extreme temperatures from -196°C to +100°C, ensuring clear legibility under even the harshest conditions.

Designed with usability in mind, the system features an intuitive touchscreen interface and user-friendly software, making it easy for laboratory staff to operate without extensive technical knowledge. An internal camera monitors the marking process in real-time, ensuring top-quality results. The Lambda768 can be operated via an internal PC or connected to external computers, LIMS systems, USB, or TCP/IP, offering flexibility for any lab setup. Its removable side panel allows easy integration into automated environments, reducing manual intervention and improving workflow efficiency.

The Lambda768 meets the growing demands of modern laboratories, offering a fast, flexible, and durable tube marking solution that ensures high-quality, precise results every time. Whether for research or high-volume sample processing, the Lambda768 delivers reliability and performance to enhance lab productivity.
