comPANION – Remote Delivery of Microtubes
TTP Labtechs comPANION is a bench-top module add-on that can be sited remotely from a comPOUND store to provide:
- A remote interface to the comPOUND store to allow it to be located outside the lab
- A system to link multiple comPOUND modules to provide a larger integrated store with higher throughput
- An interface to further automation
TTP Labtechs comPANION units can be remotely located in different rooms, or even on different floors of a building. They can connect comPOUND stores in parallel so that samples held in different modules can be accessed simultaneously, thus increasing sample throughput and providing remote delivery of microtubes.
Key Benefits
- Retrieves microtubes from comPOUND modules and arrays them into SBS footprint racks
- Returns racked microtubes to comPOUND
- Microtubes are transported using proven pneumatic technology
- comPANION units can be remotely located in other rooms, labs or floors
- Can be connected to multiple comPOUND units in parallel allowing access to different modules simultaneously
