FlexPath™ Blox
Automated tissue embedding module for Anatomical Pathology
An embedding module that automates all steps of the delicate paraffin embedding phase of histological samples, allowing the operator to fully concentrate on orienting the tissue.
During the paraffin embedding phase of the histological tissue preparation process, laboratory operators manually handle hundreds of specimens to orient them in the optimal direction for subsequent microtome cutting.
This procedure involves several manual steps that are often repetitive and tedious, leading to fatigue.
As a result, the technician of the anatomic pathology lab may become less attentive during the crucial orientation phase, which is the most important technical task of the entire procedure.
Why choose FlexPath™ Blox?
FlexPath™ Blox is Inpeco’s Automation-assisted embedding module that automates all manual (non-technical) steps of the delicate wax embedding phase of histological samples, allowing the operator to fully concentrate on tissue orientation.
This tissue embedding module ensures complete traceability and unique sample management, thanks to the integration with FlexPath™ Trace, Inpeco’s traceability software.
It manages samples individually and provides crucial information required to complete the step, such as the characteristics of the sample contained in the cassette.
FlexPath™ Blox also provides:
- automated blocks detachment
- case sorting
- standardised automated wax dispensing, reducing waste resulting from mold overfilling and manual handling
Benefits
Productivity up to 120 blocks/hour
Individual sample handling to prevent contamination
Consistent block quality with pre-cleaned margins
Open system - Compatibility with common processor baskets, cassettes, and paraffin
