Microscan Demonstrates New Embedded OEM Solutions for Clinical Lab Automation at AACC Clinical Lab Expo 2014
POSTED 07/01/2014
Mic
Microscan’s embedded barcode readers and machine vision inspection cameras are designed to meet the performance, flexibility, and longevity required for clinical instruments and processes. From the world’s smallest machine vision smart camera, Vision MINI, to new wireless barcode readers, Microscan offers technologies to meet OEM needs for specimen & reagent identification & tracking, tube cap presence & absence, cap type & color identification, dimensional measurements such as tube height & diameter, automated alignment & robotic guidance, as well as products that enable manufacturers to satisfy FDA UDI compliance requirements for their devices and instruments.
Unveiling at Clinical Lab Expo will be Microscan’s new industrial Vision MINI Xi smart camera, the world’s smallest fully-integrated smart camera with embedded Ethernet. This ultra-compact inspection system measures in at 1 in (25.4 mm) x 1.8 in (45.7 mm) x 2.1 in (53.3 mm), weighs 3.2 oz (91 g), and is ideally featured for quality assurance or robotic guidance tasks within space-constrained instruments. The Vision MINI Xi features both Ethernet and serial connectivity, a 24-volt interface, and optically isolated I/O, easily networking to systems with high-speed data requirements. Together with the easy-to-use AutoVISION machine vision software, the Vision MINI Xi has a complete toolset for reading barcodes with the flexibility to add additional inspection capabilities to processes within a single hardware device.
