New Robotic Solution Enhances Workflow Within Compact Footprint

The one-touch sample management empowers laboratories to advance workflow capabilities and streamline processes to meet their needs. With advanced sorting capabilities, the VersaCell X3 can improve the pre- and post-analytical process and reduce operator hands-on-time.

A priority drawer provides 8 new STAT positions and frees up 50 sample positions for routine processing, increasing sample routing flexibility. Its signature robotic arm delivers individual samples to connected analyzers to help drive towards a predictable turnaround time. The inclusion of a new docking plate reduces service intervention time for all connected systems, supporting uptime so laboratories can deliver timely results to clinicians. Further data consolidation is achievable through a connection to Siemens’ “CentraLink Data Management System.”

“The VersaCell X3 is a new design which provides enhanced capabilities and a harmonized look and feel across our next generation of solutions,” said Catherine Spurgeon, marketing manager for Automation, Siemens Healthcare Diagnostics, “In line with our commitment to continuously advance workflow capabilities, some of our existing VersaCell Systems can be upgraded with the VersaCell X3 Expansion Pack.” She added, “This will enable labs to connect up to three Siemens systems and improve the operator experience with new software and advanced sorting capabilities on their existing VersaCell solution. The VersaCell X3 complements the recent launch of the Siemens Aptio Automation track-based solution, designed for medium- to very high-volume laboratories. We are delighted that the first UK installation has now taken place.”
