Automated Sample Preparation Systems...
ROCKLABS Automated Systems are based on the concept
of a sample fl owing through a process, not a series of
batch events. The concept has been developed over the last fifteen
years. Many new machines and devices have
been invented by ROCKLABS Ltd to facilitate this concept.
The overall aim is simplicity of design and construction to minimise
construction costs and running costs and
enable the system to be operated by existing laboratory technicians
and maintained by existing plant fitters.
All ROCKLABS Automated Systems are custom designed
and built to meet the requirements of each laboratory.
The layout will depend on sample details such as quantity, weight
and type of sample to be processed per shift,
the degree of automation and the building where the Automated System
will be used as well as many other
details.
To ensure success, there must be sufficient testing
of a customer’s
samples to determine the machines to be used
and allow for possible changes in the future. e.g. sample weight
may be increased.
Good teamwork is required. ROCKLABS’ staff
and the customer’s
staff must all work together to ensure the best
outcome.
Automation allows for samples to
be loaded as batches and the whole batch, up to 20 samples or more,
processed with no operator involvement.
Over the last eight years ROCKLABS’ Automated
Systems have processed many millions of samples, reducing
laboratory costs and ensuring that high quality samples are ready
for analysis.
Automation is a very big subject, so please contact ROCKLABS to
discuss how ROCKLABS
Automated Systems can help your laboratory.
Price and delivery
As each System is custom built, prices can vary from USD100,000
to USD500,000. The price will include installation, training
and Warranty. With every System, there is a need for a site visit,
test work, design, building, shipping, installation, training
etc. A minimum of six months must be allowed for each order of
an Automated System.
