Microcapper MCF-13
Functional Description
- Automated capping of 13×6 mm caps on standard micro-tubes typically used in laboratories.
- Handling of the tubes for capping is in a “freehand” fashion:
- the operator inserts the tube into an orifice at the bottom of the device, and a cap is automatically attached.
- the orifice facilitates alignment of the tube with the cap so consistently that the task can be performed by an untrained operator.
- The caps are loaded into an auto-feeder at the top of the device. As the caps are consumed, the auto-feeder will automatically load more caps into the device. The device requires little to no maintenance.
- Compact bench top unit with a small footprint. It is portable and powered from AC mains.
- The device is operated by a simple ON/OFF power switch: a display shows the number of tubes capped, resettable by a reset button.
