Norma Autoloader – a unique retrofittable autosampler

The Norma Autoloader is an automatic sample vial loading device that allows better workflow and improved time efficiency for your laboratory. The Autoloader is compatible with Icon-5 and i3LAB hematology analyzers, and what makes it an outstanding accessory is that it is one of the few retrofittable autosamplers on the IVD market at the moment: you can easily install it with existing Icon-5 and i3LAB analyzers as well!

The Norma Autoloader is suitable for medium and big laboratories. It has a space-saving compact size, similar to the dimensions of any Icon analyzer, which can be valuable to any laboratory around the world. Norma offers the Autoloader with 2 interchangeable sample trays, each with a 50-vial sample capacity, a built-in sample mixer, and a built-in barcode reader. These features will help to achieve the continuous workflow that your laboratory needs!
