By integrating the advantages of technical resources, the two sides provide more efficient, flexible and economical automation solutions for laboratory medicine, so as to help the continuous improvement of China's overall medical service level and benefit the general public.
It is reported that RS600 integrates loading and unloading units, saves laboratory space layout, and optimizes sample turnover path by using two-way four track design. Equipped with radio frequency identification (RFID) technology and high-speed "chain plate" technology, RS600 can quickly and accurately identify samples, and the track speed is up to 3600 tubes / hour. RS600 is suitable for Roche Cobas series analyzer, including biochemical, immune, hemagglutination and other modules to ensure the accuracy of test results. In addition, Roche will also provide original after-sales services, including "one-stop" services such as professional assembly line service team, overall laboratory solutions and whole laboratory design.
