The FlexLab 3.6 Automation is a modular system designed to automate Pre-Analytical and Post-Analytical processing, sample handling in order to automate sample processing in the Laboratory. The system consolidates analytical instruments, such as the ARCHITECT c8000 System into a unified workstation that performs a variety of instrument specific assays such as Sodium, Potassium and Chloride. Sodium, Potassium and Chloride measurements are used in the diagnosis and treatment of diseases involving electrolyte imbalance.

The FlexLab 3.6 Automation is a modular system designed to automate Pre-Analytical and Post-Analytical processing, sample handling in order to automate sample processing in the Laboratory. The system consolidates multiple Analytical instruments into a unified workstation. The Automation software provides for workload management, sample routing to relevant Analytical instrument based on sample orders coming from LIS (Laboratory Information System) and instrument operational status monitoring. This is accomplished through communication connections between the Automation, Analytical instruments and LIS (Laboratory Information System) or middleware. Pre-Analytical and Post-Analytical processing in details are as follows: sample loading and unloading and sample identification, sample transport along the system and routing to relevant modules, loading and unloading in centrifuge, decapping, sealing, storing in a temperature controlled environment, aliquot samples capping, sample presentation to connected Analytical instruments. The FlexLab 3.6 Automation Systems perform the following pre and post analytical functions: Sample bar code identification (previously performed by the analyzer) Sample transport and tracking Sample centrifugation (Optional functionality) Sample de-capping (Optional functionality) Sample re-capping (Optional functionality) Sample sealing (Optional functionality) Sample de-sealing (Optional functionality) Sample aliquoting (Optional functionality) Sample Storage and Retrieval (Optional functionality)
