MatriCal introduces automation friendly 2D barcode reader

MatriCal recently launched the Scan X 2D, universal 2D barcode reader that can operate stand alone or in an automated environment.

This compact and user friendly machine is able to operate in temperatures as low as -20 ºC, allowing tubes to be read inside an automated sample management system and preserving sample integrity. It is able to read SBS/ANSI formatted vial racks (24 capacity) and tube microplates (96 and 384). The MatriScan's optical lens scans one image of the entire rack allowing for quick turnaround time (15-30 seconds).
