Lab Sample Labeling Automation
Labeling samples in a laboratory can be a challenging task. At TubeWriter we offer a great solution to this problem and more.
The Client and the Challenge
Researchers at Vertex struggled to find a labeling solution that could survive the various conditions that samples endure in the lab. Sticker labels were not lasting on samples as they changed hands, were frozen, boiled, and scraped by boxes and racks. The stickers also added weight to the tubes, which had to be adjusted for when conducting testing. The lab tested different types of manual labeling, handwriting and various stickers but described their experiences as “awful.”
How TubeWriter Helped
The TubeWriter creates durable labels meant to withstand harsh laboratory conditions. Scientists have to expose samples to extreme temperatures and some chemicals, such as alcohol. With the TubeWriter, they can be confident that their labels will last. The TubeWriter labels also do not add significant weight to the samples, allowing samples to be weighed at any point in an experiment without including label weight in calculations.
Client Testimonial
“Before, when we were handwriting or stickering the tubes, it would take four hours to do 1,000 tubes. Now it takes three minutes.”
“The time value alone is innumerable on hours saved.”
