DTM TCP450 Tissue Cassette Printer prints directly onto tissue cassettes for increased efficiency in labs.
DTM Medical, an international OEM and medical solution provider, recently introduced its DTM TCP450 Tissue Cassette Printer. The TCP450 is designed for use in cytology, pathology and histology labs to print text, symbols, matrix codes and other characters directly onto tissue and biopsy cassettes. That eliminates handwriting or expensive and difficult-to apply labels and makes the lab workflow more efficient while increasing patient safety. As the cassette printer is a UV laser printer it does not require special laser cassettes. That leads to significant cost reduction as just standard ones (without lit) need to be stored. Furthermore, the print is resistant to xylene, alcohol and decalcifying solutions.
The print resolution of the cassette printer is 2500 dpi, resulting in high quality and sharp print output. It takes about four seconds for a cassette to be produced.
The TCP450 can store multiple cassettes as it comes with six cassette hoppers, each holding up to 75 cassettes. Alternatively, it can hold up to 50 cassettes each with refillable hoppers. There are two output hoppers available, either with a capacity of 20 or 100 cassettes. A direct output of the printed cassettes is also possible.
An integrated PC with touch screen and a built-in scanner are two features of this new cassette printer that can be operated as stand-alone solution or with a lab information system (LIS).
Signature EVO Slide Printer
Also new to the DTM Medical products portfolio is the Signature EVO Slide Printer, which is the next generation of slide printers by US manufacturer Primera Technology.
The EVO Slide Printer features a patented new air-puff system, called EVO SlideSeparator, for perfectly fed slides, every time. As it comes with an ethernet and USB interface, it can be integrated with LIS systems. The increased print speed allows a faster production of ten slides per minute. The integrated LCD screen allows for easy handling and shows machine status and other user feedback information.
The Signature EVO Slide Printer is designed for efficient, hands-free operation. Slides are stored in easy-to-load cartridges – away from dust and other potential contaminants. It takes just a few seconds to change out the cartridge if you need standard slides for one study and positively charged slides for others. The level of slides remaining in a cartridge is easily viewed through the cartridge’s transparent blue LED backlit case.
DTM Medical provides advanced and complete medical labelling solution – all from a single source. The Signature EVO Slide Printer and DTM TCP450 Tissue Cassette Printer offer a great way for laboratories as well as medical research organisations to process and manage slides and cassettes. The labs’ efficiency is significantly increased while the risk of specimen misidentification is reduced or even eliminated.
DTM Medical will showcase all its medical printing solutions at Medlab 2024 at stand Z6.C38
