Lean Workflow Benefits
Automation is a cost-saving, long-term solution. SPOT Imaging’s PathTracker can allow operators to complete all of their daily check-out or check-in scans in the time it would normally take to hand-scan just one bulk container. Bulk-cassette scanning eliminates the need for technicians to hand-scan every sample, freeing up personnel to complete other critical functions.
At 4 seconds per 150-cassette basket, at 120,000 cassettes per year, the savings can be up to 567 EFT hours
At 2 seconds per 20-slide folder, at 600,000 slides per year, the savings can be up to 333 EFT hours
Virtually eliminates lost samples and the potential legal and credibility cost.
