Video Demonstrates Automatic Microplate Sealing & Stacking System

Porvair Sciences Ltd. has produced a new online video that demonstrates how its TriSeal High Throughput Sealing Station provides busy laboratories with a compact, easy-to-use solution for automated microplate sealing and stacking.

Accessed via the article webpage the .wmv format streaming video demonstrates how, with one simple command, the TriSeal High Throughput Sealing Station can be instructed to securely seal and store up to 100 microplates. Featuring the tried and tested Scorpion™ stacker / loader, the video shows how the TriSeal High Throughput Sealing Station uses a single Scorpion to both load and unload the TriSeal™. As the first plate is sealed inside the TriSeal, a second plate is automatically added to the turntable prior to the ejected sealed plate being removed by the Scorpion and returned to the 'sealed' stack. A single interface box is used to control the stacker / loader and the TriSeal.

Combining the flexibility of a 3-position turntable with the unparalleled convenience of unattended microplate loading and unloading the TriSeal High Throughput Sealing Station is shown to offer significant productivity & throughput benefits to the busy screening or compound management laboratory.

The TriSeal High Throughput Sealing Station is able to produce an accurate and tight seal on any SBS proposed standard microplate from 5 to 47mm in height. Offering adjustable temperature heat sealing from 50ºC up to 185ºC the station is able to operate optimally with most foil & film seals.
